-Fuel line to rail heat wraped
-Tial 44 discharge pipe heat wraped
-Starter has DEI heat barrier blanket
-Battery relocation to trunk

-HKS DLI-2 ignition box
-Forge MBC- Silver
-Mitsumoto? Slim radiator fan
-FIC 950 cc injectors
-Large bore fuel rail- supports upto 750ish WHP with pressure gauge
-Perrin 25mm adjustable rear sway bar
-Perrin rear stout mounts for sway bar
-Custom fully adjustable rear sway bar endlinks
-Rear upper strut bar
-Stock Front upper strut bar
-AMS Front, Cam, and transmission solid engine mounts
-EBAY special rear solid mount
-Shorter throw shifter with counter weighted knob
-Solid shifter base bushings
-Solid underhood shifter bushings
-Evo 9 rear struts with TIEN lowering springs
-Evo 8 front struts with TIEN lowering springs
-Carbin fibre look alike Vortex genterator
-2 Hella horns wired in with the 2 stock horns
-Custom ECU tuning- 433WHP and 392 WTQ @ 27psi (I currently have it tuned for 31-30psi peak- 30-29 taper for a output of 456WHP & 421WTQ)
-ECU has valet mode, flashing CEL for knock detection, set up for GM BCS boost control, and NO LIFT TO SHIFT mode. If you dont know what that is, you are missing out! :D
The AEM A/F gauge and the Tetrix cable have been removed and sold, So I took it off the list. The Yoko's have been replaced with my other set of stock wheels and tires, only had about 10k miles on these.
I know I have some other things done, but it is hard to remember them all. As I remember, I will update. The engine is capable of turning 8,000rpm's but I have a ECU rev limit set at 7600 and the shift light is set to luminate at 7400-7500. This car is a beast on the roads. Even with the good griping Yoko's, it is possible to spin all 4's in first, second and chirp 3rd. When launching the car, you have to ride the clutch slightly to keep the wheels from roasting. On 2-step, the engine is set to build 10psi. This car is easily a Vette, Cobra, or GTO killer. Easily. IF a race fuel tune is done on the car, you should be able to rund 35psi (but will be at the max of the turbo at the psi) and be able to break 500whp and be a 10sec street car. This set up is perfect for any auto crossing or street type racing.
Now the not so perfect part:
There are a few quater sized dings on the roof and hood. And there is a dent on the right quarter panel, Not too major, any painless dent repair guy should be able to fix. I just had the painless dent guy fix the quaterpanel. There is a scratch on the hood that will need to be touched up, and the under part of the rear bumper is scuffed. The brembos are doing the usual fading to brownbo's.
The car looks completely stock from the outside except it being lowered. The factory spoiler had the clear start to fade, I had it fixed before any damage to the carbon fibre. The upper portion of the fibre is painted to match the car, the under portion and inner canards of the spoiler are still carbon fibre.

There is a spark plug cover on the car now, but here is an underhood pic

This is a pic from 1.5 years ago when the car was built. This shows how large the intercooler is.

This is the turbo currently on the car

This is from 1.5 years ago when installing the engine, there isnt any gold now. It is all black.

I easily have over $35,000 invested in this car. I bought the car 2 years ago for $20,000, and have since spent on parts alone an additional $10-15,000 plus if you wanted to add the labor I saved by either doing it myself, or paying a certified Mitsubishi Tech on the side for some of the labor, you can add another $3-5000.
Now I know that I will not be able to recoup all of my money, I know this. I am sad not be able to, but with the Carpolcolypse that we are in, it just is not possible. The last Evo 8 to be retailed in my town was sold for $25,000 and it was a yellow stock Evo. Kelly Blue Book's Suggested Retail price of a STOCK Evo 8 is $19,600- http://www.kbb.com/KBB/UsedCars/PricingReport/2003_Mitsubishi_Lancer_2878_Retail_Good.aspx?Selec tionHistory=2878|29905|29640|0|0|112756|true&Mileage=62000&PriceTypePath=Private%20Party
I am willing to sell for 2nd price drop from $20,000 to $17,500 FIRM. Cash talks, bull shit walks. I know how much my Evo is worth, so low ballers need to keep looking somewhere else. I dont HAVE to sell but want to. I am motivated to sell the car, I DO NOT WANT TRADES :D I dont like checks (bank checks PM me about), money orders (unless certified), paypal (Unless it is for a deposit and you include the Fee), or bitchy wives/girlfriends (no exception here). No children or animals either :crazy: I am in the process of trying to payoff the last bit of my loan on the car. I can disclose the lendor to any serious buyer if need be.
