Haven’t flushed your cars cooling system in awhile?

Here’s a brief how-to for coolant flush and radiator drain.

Part 1

Part 2

It takes air (and fuel) to make power and one of the best ways to get more air through the engine is to add performance camshafts with higher lifts, longer durations, and more overlap. These will open the valve higher and/or for a longer periods, thus allowing air to flow more freely. A decent set of cams could easily add 20-30 HP to your Evo.

Although, fairly in-depth, this install write up is intended as a general process, not a step-by-step Installing Evo Cams for Dummies (though it’s close :). Installing camshafts is not for the newbie unless you are absolutely sure of your ability to pull this off. Failure to install cams properly or correctly check and set timing can totally destroy your engine.

We will be using the Mitsubishi “Timing Belt Tool” for this install. If you do not own this item, you will have the additional labor of removing and replacing the timing belt, which adds greatly to the total install time as you might imagine. The removal and replacement of the timing belt will be shown in a separate section at a later date. If you do not have the timing belt tool, you should really consider getting one (click here to purchase evo timing belt tool). This tool will save you hours of work whenever you need to remove the cams or the head.
