Not sure about this, but yea he knew about all of the issues when he bought it and bought the car "as is" not knowing the cost of fixing it (as we didn't know either) said he was going to build the car up. As for the return I'm not sure??

And about it not boosting over wastegate pressure....that's because someone stole the manual boost controller...since then it ran like ****

You should actually be able to get 11's with good driving in the 1/4 with that power.

I put down 335whp/338lb.ft on that dyno on the stock turbo setup and ran the 1/4 in 12.2 @ 113.xx mph.

So 20 more horse and I would think you could get maybe 2 more mph and possibly clip off another 2 tenths with a blazing 60 foot.

Haha nice try.. according to frank it has been to 3 different Mitsubishi dealers. NO ONE will touch it for warranty work he said, and mike told him thousands to work on it from bariel. He knows exactly what it will cost to be fixed if not a close number... (i talked to him yesterday about it.)

and about it boosting only waste gate pressure, if you were "smart" you would run the new lines with pills in it to the stock boost noid over under the battery tray area, but buying them already modified, and not knowing how to turn a wrench would cause this.

Let me know man, i will be a mile from the dyno for the next couple months still.. would like to see. Plus, you might be able to get a nice custom dyno tune too. Nate has been there to help out some locals so far with evo's and of course his 900whp 2nd gen eclipse he tunes

My buddy mario is trapping 127 on that turbo at 25psi with a 2.3 motor
ya if i could ever get a good launch on that track maybe i'd see 11's lol 5th gear is killing me as well

Where can one get Redline fluids locally? Or the cheapest by mail? I think I spent $9.00 a quart + shipping for MT-90 last time. I know there's a better deal somewhere.

after a job like that, i might be looking for something more powerful than rum.

perhaps about a pint of raw ether.
