Got back into the Evo world finally after selling my beloved 2000 Turbo ITR to Kendon...I couldn't keep her anymore - needed something with a bit more functionality here in the cold MI seasons and wanted to get down to one car (also had a 2005 Scion xA). So, I can't take any credit for this car...it was all Kendon's work. It is a 2003 Vesuvius Metallic (think black with a lot of metallic) - car was originally rally red. It currently has the following modifications:

- HKS 272 cams
- Megan manifold & O2 housing
- Megan 3" turbo-back exhaust
- Vishnu cam gears
- Vishnu reflash
- K&N drop-in air filter
- Crushed 1G BOV (will have a Blitz DD BOV whenever I get around to it)
- Buschur deluxe FMIC and piping
- Varis FRP Fenders w/ CF Air Guides
- 15% tint on all side/rear windows
- 18x9.5 5Zigen FN01RC Bronze wheels +35mm offset w/ Rays Aluminum Lugs
- 255/35/18 KDW2s
- Walbro 255 fuel pump
- Samco red silicone radiator hose
- Mitsubishi alloy shift knob and pedals (silver)
- Blitz FATT turbo timer
- Removed front emblem (will be replaced soon)
- Painted rear emblems

Soon I'll have a set of Progressive springs and rear sway bar to tighten up the handling a bit more and lower the car (needs that badly)

Here are the pics:

 

The rear Mitsubishi diamond looks awesome painted black

 

I will hopefully get the "Lancer Evolution" off and replace it with a black UK badge sometime

 

real easy to get off and IMO looks much better with it removed.

 

Would a hair dryer and some careful pulling be the best method of removal?

 

She's gorgous

 

hairdryer and some floss or fishing line.

 

great pictures. love the car. ill pass on the badge and just get a coilover or something. it will look alot better.

 

HUH?!?

 

Yeah...apparently a UK badge now costs $2000 LOL

 

goo gone and thick dental floss. it works better than any other method and it takes 10 minutes at most.

 

Looks good. Needs to be lowered though.

When the car was painted, was the door jams and engine bay painted as well?

 

lookss sick, i like it...beautiful

 

nice. now drop that baby
