Honestly, Im not sure.
I did have plans (which unfortunatly foiled due to circumstances out of my hands)
to really build the car to 300+ Hp.
Since that s not that case now, I look at it this way:
The Lancer's a Lancer. Its not gonna be the fastest car on the road, or be at a caliber thats allowing me to hang out with the RX7's and Supras, and Lastly... its my daily driver.
So, I think Im just gonna do it up a bit for some substantial power increases but nothing to crazy, and just keep it at that. Then Do the cosmetics so its lookin' good.

For now Im thinking that If I ever doa Turbo, then thats last on my list.
Im just looking at adding better Shocks and Springs (Probably not TEIN, although I love the Dampachi character haha) Headers (Id really like the golden/bronze style rather than chrome, but I cant find 'em) RRM's PiggyBack ECU, RRM Bored Intake Manifold and Throttle Body, and a 2G Eclipse Fuel Pump.
Then add a few Gauges on the A Pillar like: A/F, EGT (Incase I do decide to Turbo in the future), & Oil Press.
Then some Metal Pedals to cover those ugly stock rubber ones.
Thats about it, unless something changes in my life and allows me to do what Id like done.

Watch out with fleece, it picks up and holds dirt very well (I hike in the stuff and its a pain to clean).
