Why am I selling? I hardly drive it at all these days. I've put about 600 miles on it in the 9 months. I start it up and let it run about twice a month. I just turned 30, bought a house, not into tuner cars anymore, and want a single fun daily car. Thinking MK7 GTI or FRS

Bought from a state department officer in December 2014 in Virginia. He was the second owner had owned it from about 25k miles to 114k when I bought it. He sold it because he just had a new born and was trying to close on a house in 2 weeks; he literally cried when it drove away. It was his daily driver, he had a 2Gen DSM as his project/tuner car. It's been my fun/weekend car since then. I've always had a daily.

Clean title, previous owner said he hit a deer with it at one point. I think just the bumper was replaced.

Only mods it had when I bought it was Defi Boost gauge, intercooler pipes, megan racing down pipe, test pipe, and apexi cat back. Stock boost its whole life till I altered it.

Oil changed every 3-4k with rotella t-6 and bosch or mobile 1 filters

114k replaced oem oil cooler lines, one was leaking.

118K used 80k oem shocks with eibach pro springs and front camber bolts

120k full timing belt/ balance shaft belt kit. Continental T belt, gates hydrolic tensioner etc.

121k Inner and outer tie rods/ends changed. Thought It was the tie rods for some slack i was feeling in steering from center. Turns out it was just a 10mm nut on the steering coloumn was loose

124k- ACT HDSS, ACT monoloc, ACT 6 puck sprung disk, Diaqueen Transfercase fluid, Redline transmission fluid, torque solutions rear and front motor mount.

126k- FP HTA 71, VSFR Intercooler, map O2 dump, new bosch O2 sensor, EGR blockoff, crushed evo 9 DV, ETS intake, deatchwerks 300 fuel pump, ETS intake, ID 1250 low z injectors, LC1 wideband, tuned by chris kurppe on 93 at 27 psi in spring hill, kingawa waste gate 22psi, turbo manifold studs replaced, manifold to turbo bolts replaced with APR.

127- replaced broken fuel injector seal, compression test 180 on all four; have pictures as proof

129k ARP headstuds (done for insurance), hot side of turbo replaced with new unit, black C series Cerakote on valve cover, rear diff fluid replaced with diaqueen oem fluid, coolant and oil changed in conjunction

Was tuned on the new turbo by a local tuner (I'll give you his name privately if you want to know) who races his own built and tuned 9 second evo 9. Runs and drives fine with no knock and safe AFR's, but could be smoothed out a bit more; Id recommend a retune. English racing does remote tuning for about 400$. I can send logs of the current tune if you want to see them.

It has a CEL for the 02 sensor heater, I've changed the sensor for a new one but still shows the same CEL. Not sure why

Paint is about 6.5/10

Someone keyed the hood haven't messed with it or had some out touch it up. see pics for different angles of it. Plan on was to find a used oem silver hood but haven't found one yet., Basecoat on top has tiny cracks in it also known as chicken feet. There's a touch up on the driver's side door, and some scratches on the trunk.

Yes I have the oem wing. I took it off to fix the peeling clear coat, got most of the old clear off need to respray clear(see pics). I have a silver lancer trunk with no spoiler holes but it needs at least a wet sand.

I changed out the drivers seat skins/cushions from a Evo 9 SE, the stock leather driver seat let you slide around way too much. I still have the stock driver side leather

Electronics/Audio

DEFI boost gauge, Innovate LC1 wide band. Stock SSL package amp, sub, speakers, pioneer head unit with Bluetooth and USB. I have the OEM headunit as well.

Fuel/power

Deatchwerks 300 fuel pump, ID 1250 cc injectors, full 3 inch turbo back megan racing downpipe, Map 02 dump, 2 resonators, test pipe, apexi catback, FP HTA 71 turbo with anti surge housing,

Suspension/wheels/tires
