does anybody run with out the under tray
+1
I really want to top my car out that day when I was doing about 145mph, but I just couldn't, I try to think what is wrong with the car, and realized I haven't put back the undertray after motor mount.
Another benefit of undertray is to keep engine cooller, even the after market ones (carbing, beatrush) advertised the same benefit.
cssaddictm4, do you think the MR 6 sp can reach 195-200 mph? you will be cruising at about 8400rpm in order to reach that kind of speed

PUT IT BACK ON!!!! I took mine off for a clutch job and lagged on putting it back on. Biggest mistake of all time. 
Crushed my oil filter from hitting something on the freeway. This picture and the $9K bill for a new block and built(stroked to 2.3 since the motors out) motor should be enough reason to go put your undertray back on. TODAY!

I have had mine off for 10k now and I have not experiened any problems. It was such a B!tch to get off in the first place with all those damn clips that I did not even want to bother with putting it back on.
Leave it on. Mitsubishi spent a LOT of money and time on engineering that tray. There was a Mitsu published tech article I saw a while back that pointed out all its cool features. Brake ducting, element protection, and even a "vortex" generator (that dip and rise in the center!) that increases down force at high speeds.
Don't undermind the engineers :P it was put there for a reason.
If it doesn't fit your BAFMIC then you might want to consider trimming it to fit

Not to mention the fact that the speedo is off by a fair margin, especially at higher speeds. The more reliable methods would be to use a GPS or radar gun.
I hear this crap all the time in the motorcycle world too....people saying they hit 180mph on their 1k's...I thought that speedo error was common knowledge.

It's really not that hard to take it off and put it back on, if the car didn't need it I'm sure Mitsu would have loved to save money on the piece and increase their profits.
