I like the way you're thinking sleek concepts but on another note the 250K is that after tax profit?

If not I hope you have a good accountant because you know Uncle Sam is gonna want his money.

Sounds like you are gonna have one baaaaad Lancer.

Good luck modding.

BRAKS MAN. Dont forget that you will have to stop with all that added performance. I would suggest looking for a front and rear disc set up with a good calipers (2 piston min but 4 woudl be best) some good roters and pads. Speed is fine and dandy but when little Jonny and little Jane run infront fo your car you will want to stop fast too.

i will probably do most of it at our shop. some of the major stuff like inside the engine(pistons, rods, and flywheel) i might get done at my buddies shop. he does engine swaps and stuff so i think i may let him do that.

yeah i think im gonna tackle everything except internals.

i am kinda looking at the buschur exaust. if that a good idea?? if nto which exhaust do you recommend.

also, which gauges am i going to need to install in order to monitor all this stuff. i was thinking of these:

boost/vacuum
air/fuel ratio
intake temp
exhaust temp
oil pressure

are there any others that i will absolutely need to have??

yes go with the buschur exhaust, its the best pipe size for our car. i dont think all those gauges are really necessary, boost and egt are the only real important ones imo, maybe oil pressure too.
