Nice engine bay pics. I love the spark plug cover. I couldn't get mine back on after getting the spoolinup cop setup. Even though they said it would fit back on

If I bought a BR350, I'd leave it as-is. If you want to build a really high HP car, why not just buy another Evo and go from there?

Just curious.

If there are any BR350 people around I would love some pointers I know these things are sweet I'm getting #23 of 26 in 2006 so I know it's rare and I know they are very torquey for some reason I would like to build a 500-600 awhp daily I'd like to go FP Black what do you all think!?!?!
You can kiss the low-end goodbye, once you start raising power to such a degree. It's a 2.0L motor with 2.0L of displacement. There's no magic wand to create the response you're trading for a narrow powerband up top. Then, there's the question of a 500-600whp daily. I assume you want it to be reliable, so that you can drive it anywhere. You're taking the motor to the edge of its life on a car that's seen better days. Not gonna happen, either. Somebody had to tell you. Good luck.

So were these Mitsubishi commissioned builds? Dealer commissioned builds? BR bought them and modded them then sold them? Customer "staged" builds? I have never heard of these.

How can you be so sure? Seriously. What makes you so confident? I'm genuinely curious.
