Impressive White EVO X
When the engine is shut off, it is kept idling for
about a minute to allow the turbo to properly cool
down, as well as for the engine oil to circulate
properly.
Being a daily driver, Nicholas also made sure that
his Evo is able to still provide the basics for the
drive to work. Hence, the air-conditioning unit is
left untouched (important in balmy Singapore),
and he still gets to enjoy sounds from the Pioneer
sound system with the four-speaker set-up.
How often is it we see cars on the road that have
been all dressed up, but with little performance
under the hood to speak of? Nicholas’s car on the
other hand bucks the trend, being truly able to
show many rides a clean set of tyre lines on the
race track, but without too many compromises
when it comes to daily usability. H
