However, a proper trans cooler package with pump cooler lines fittings etc would be pretty cool.


I totally agree that we should put together a nice trans cooler kit! I also want to revamp our oil cooler kits and dry sump set up as well because I do think there are some small changes that could be made to make things more bolt and go. I want to be able to serve the street driven community but also have products for dedicated track cars as well.

Next thing you know, someone will be trying to identify our cars by naming the headlights after different types of "eyes".

Personally I believe your website has fair pricing on just about any part. The MAP loyalty program is what keeps me coming back though. Having spent nearly $4k on your website this year it is nice to see something being returned to me for using your site rather than a competitor site. With that being said i think the only thing id like to see added is a wider selection of bolt on stock location turbos and maybe more OEM parts since theres no mitsu dealers within 45 mins of me.

I really appreciate the enthusiasm for creative ideas like this on an aging platform. I think at this point we have a lot of devoted people who are kind of reinventing these cars, even though many others leave them in ruin. Community support like this means a lot.

I swear we're not broke.

I can tell you that we are happy to hear that you are a loyal customer of ours! I would agree with you that I think our website could be a little better in the sense of having more OEM listings available. However, I can tell you that if you call in and let one of our sales reps (myself included) know what you are looking for, we can take care of it and get you set up. I offer just about every popular stock frame turbo set up for these cars, so I urge you to reach out to myself or any rep here for more information if you need it, we would be happy to help you out brother!

Thanks man! Creativity is what keeps this industry alive and well and that's what I hope MAP can bring to our community as well.

@maperformance I was told to come here to pester you to create "a nice cast Al pan" for the 4G63 like you did for the 4B11.

I've snoozed on two group buys for this before, would be amazing to get something like that from you guys.

That is definitely something I have been thinking about as well. I submitted a few ideas so far to the boss man so I will try and update you guys with what stuff we might be able to start putting together! So far this is my favorite thread, keep these ideas comin!

I would like an oil pan for evo8/9 that can withstand G's from right hander's that doesn't lower oil pressure(or helps to not drop oil pressure right away). I know it wont fully cure the problem but at least help. Seems like only thing on the market for Evo8/9 that actually work require you to ship a new or existing pan to said person, wait a week and then they ship it back. For me, that is not feasible(due to daily driver) and the cost for doing all that gets close or exceeds $1000.

Sign me up. A proven, track-ready oil pan with baffles and additional capacity would be an easy purchase for anyone tracking their car. I'm surprised we've made it this far without having an off the shelf solution for the VIII and IX.

You would be surprised. Any time a group gets together, they have trouble finding even 5 people to make a run.
