Quite surprised at some of their comments, I thought it would be a bit of a slagging off but quite the opposite. EVO-owners are generally nice people with interest in other performance cars. This opinion is a bit biased however,because my former car was an EVO V RS (=light weight version) :wink: ;g...

I would say:give it WOT in 5th and/or 6th a few times from lowish revs to beyond spoolup;the boost will be high at spoolup and can reveal dodgy noises like whistling from leaking DV's or a turbo on it's way out. It's also a test to show if the clutch is slipping. Also check the Y-boostpipes that run...
