Talking New Evo MR Mods

Just got confirmation that my new MR will be here in a two weeks. I plan on doing the following Mods. My constaints are no voiding the Mitsubishi warranty, $3000 budget, and have Ralliart look.

1. Turbo Back Exhaust
2. Oil catch Can
3. New Intake
4. Carbon fiber trunk with Railliart spoiler
5. Battery in trunk
6. Carbon fiber Hood

I need the forums opinions on the best products.

Are you gonna swap your exhaust back to stock every time you go to the dealership??? Last I ckecked, they dont like full exhausts and MAY make a quick note to void you in the future.

Question

Yep, Lancer Ralliart spoiler.

The exhaust and intake mods will void the warranty.

What about a down pipe and cat back exhaust?

The exhaust and intake mods will not void the warranty.

If the new intake causes a failure, that will stop them from fixing that problem.

(Does not apply to tampering with cat converter. Remove that and you can be ticketed, so leave that on!)

I have an intake and an exhaust and many other mods, but they still do warranty repairs no questions asked.

Everything you're doing sounds good. Best of luck!

I'll see if the dealer is open to installing the oil catch can, exhaust and intake mods.

I've heard nothing about the battery, so that appears to be acceptable.

What about the lower arm braces?

MSRP, 34,999. Dealer has a great reputation where I work and a clean BBB record.
