Asxes can you fix some of those pics? You're listing a lot of great info on mods and it would be great to see the pics.

Also, do you have a link to the ebay ad you bought that strut bar from? I can't find anything even remotely close to what you're describing for under $125

Btw, when doing the TB swap if its a RA then direct swap. If its an eclipse then swap black box on TB. Disconnect battery and when starting the car it will have an ASC and check engine light. Hold revs to 2k until it warms to normal op temp and then turn off. Disconnect battery, pump brakes and then start car. Let idle for 15 min with no AC/heat/radio. I will try getting pics fixed when I have time. Sorry about the pics if they are not working. I see them when I look at the thread. Not sure why everyone else can't

Cheap bar but works. It was $33 when I got it. It's from "Tuningpros".

Yeah no problem. Just remove the two black plates(one circle ring on each strut tower) that's on the strut bar prior to installing the strut bar. The rings won't be reused.

I bought a OEM Lancer RA Front strut fearing that I may have to Mod a OEM evox like Travisty did. Ill see how the fitting goes on that in a few days

Now, I wonder if anyone can chime in on the RRM tie bar set. Can it provide tangible reduction in body roll for our O Sport? I also wish here is a way to make the steering more heavy, because in highway speeds its more noticeable how the steering feels vague.

I wondered exactly that.. but, to me the steering is extremely vague/light during Lower speeds. I wish there was a way to adjust that electric power steering!

Any how, it tightens up when I'm going 65-70MPH.

There shouldn't be an issue installing it. I got the exact same strut bar and it took 5 minutes to install. That's only because I had a ratchet and not a impact. Freaking on post housing. I miss my compressor. I want to put the pulley on but I can't use a compressor in my own garage.

You will be surprised at how small our snorkel is compared to the RA. Btw when installing the RA snorkel you have to trim 1.5-2" from the inlet portion as the snorkel is a bit long. The snorkel mounts under the plastic trim and not on top like the rest of the lancers. You also drill out both rivets on the stock snorkel mount to use on the RA. Position the snorkel on the intake box and under the rad support then mount the mounting bracket to the rad support. You will need two self tapping screws and a .5" spacer ( i used a small piece of the rubber hose that came with my intake that i didnt use) between the snorkel and mount. It sounds confusing but will make sense when you go to install it. I measured the inlet size and the two are about same height but stock is 4" wide and RA is 8" wide. The stick looks wider then it is but looking from the from versus top reveals its all blocked off.
