Welp I first bought my 04 silver 8 last year and it was a disaster. It had an ugly front bumper and stock lancer rear bumper. The interior was pretty much nonexistent. Since buying it, I got a stock 9 bumper and stock 8 rear bumper. I als went and got everything from a base lancer for my car like, o **** handles, lights, sun visors and all the good stuff. Bought new floors mats from stm and some other stuff. I am currently deployed and decided to build my car. When I got the car it had a stock motor and a 35r with some supporting mods. I have spent a lot of money on my car and still spending more.

Mods list I have bought for my 2.0 liter build:
Manley I beam rods
Weisco 1400hd 10.5:1 e85 pistons
Gsc bee hiv springs and retainers
Gsc Zero tick lifters
Gsc s3 cams

Grimspeed ebcs
Aem 50 psi boost gauge, aem wideband and I have some type of oil pressure gauge
Arp main studs and arp L19 head studs with new oem head gasket
Also got a set of isc n1 coilovers
Stuff I need to buy includes: new timing belt and water pump.
I plan on getting my car tuned by Corbin Johnson out of Indianapolis area. I really can't afford an expensive ecu, so I am going to stay with stock for now. This will be my first high horsepower build and I am super excited. I will post more as I go when my brother starts getting my motor to the machine shop.

What my car first looked like. Now has better stock fenders



All my parts together lol.

 

Nice parts! Good Luck!

 

Thanks! Theirs more parts just what I thought of off the top of my head.

 

What kind of power do you guys think I can put down before I max out my fuel pumps?

 

Got my motor all together!

 

GREAT LOOKING BUILD! can you run 93 pump gas on the 1400hd e85 series pistons? are you planning on running only e85?

 

P.S. - I love the purple valve cover

 

Thank you!!! My valve cover is powder coated Illusion violet. I only plan only running one tank of 93 in my car every so often to clean the injectors. Also if I ever make a road trip and they don't have e85 I have that option. From what I heard it's bad if you run a lot of 93 in it. But I don't plan on doing it often.

 

great to know man. i recently just bought the same pistons and couldnt find a lot of information on it but that it can run a bit odd and iffy, if u run 93 too much on the e85 series.

 

Lots !!!!!!! of fun hope your build come out awesome. Can not wait to see that beast come out lol. =-)

 

Thanks man I appreciate it!!! She's together and running on a base tune r now. Just fixing odds and ends of it right now. Looking to get it tuned this weekend or sometime this next week!!!

 

should be sweet when all done
