Well, I've finally got around to the install of this thing.

Background: I purchased a Mitsubishi RVR intake manifold back before Christmas. I am thinking I've maxed out my setup right now and am changing intakes to crack my 11 (current @ a 12.2).

The only difference between an Evo 3 and RVR manifold is a 52mm throttle body hole, I've ported and smoothed it. I've also ground off the "knubs" on the top of the manifold, as well as welded all the vac line holes shut with the intent of running a vacuum block.

A few comparison pictures:

I took a stock 2G coil pack bracket and welded it up to fit in the stock location on the Evo manifold to make things easier.

I haven't installed it yet. I have a log from my final run at Shannonville for my 12.24 run. This will be used as my baseline. I will not be changing anything in relation to my tune.
