yeaaaah soooo...

thinkin about selling my RA...with all the little mods and junk i've done its fun and all...but its just turning out to be not that practical...lol, if i'm gunna fix up a car, it should actually be fast...and its just not gunna happen with an RA. Well that and i'm pretty sure i'll never buy another mitsu cuz of the dealerships haha but the hardest part will be actually goin through with it...had some good times in that car

I hope you already think this thru cause once you step on a HOnda and feel that sorry piece of **** asking for torque and a MITSUBISHI passes you by the side you are gonna regret it... LoL

BTW good luck selling it

u want hp and tq..easy money buys this things...if u think ur RA sucks then stop doing bolt on crap and do some real mods...money will give u any amount of power u want...even if u buy an evo or a 1.8 corolla 89....dealers suck everyone so stop counting on them...please look at reality..

To get any real power from a 4cyl you have no choice but to use forced induction NO MATTER WHAT THE ENGINE!!! Prob the Honda S2000 is the most power you will get NA. Even with their bolt on stuff from intake to muffler will only get an extra 4-5hp.

If you want to mod, get a V8(mustang or GTO) or a factory turbo4 (evo or scooby). Maybe if you can hold out a year, see what the new RA has to offer. I know you said no more , but any car you mod will void warranty.

Did you know we have more torque than a s2000. Of course if you're looking at gear ratios then thats a different story, but thats just a classic example of how torqueless those cars really are.

I agree with everyone else.

4cyl = either forced induction or a crazy N/A setup.

As Blitz said, its not like you can't get it to go fast, you can get anything to go fast with $.

And in terms of dealerships, come on now, every dealer will void warranty if its been modded and I can sure as hell let you know that you're probably only looking it from a Mitsu point of view. I'm pretty sure some of the Honda guys and what not have their problems with dealers.

Good luck and all the best.

Get a turbo to save all your problems!

well I don't wanna say anything thats already been said ,so I think you would be much more profitable to sell the aftermarket stuff separately and the car as stock as possible....ra's are fast you much not be pushing the potenial button on the dash.....good luck with the sell....

So what type of vehicle are you shooting for? American V-8? You can always turbo or super a v-8 too! REMEMBER: There is no REPLACEMENT for DISPLACEMENT!!
