New/My Ride


Hey guys/gals. My name is Kris and reside in Charleston, SC. Owner of a '04 RR RS with 70,xxx original miles. Bought the car from a friend about a year ago now. Was a roller and boxes and boxes of parts. Here is a build list as of now:

GSC 2.3L Stroker
•100mm OEM crank
•Bridgeway 150mm rods
•Wiseco HD pistons (10.5:1)
•ACL mains/rods
•Balance shaft delete
•ARP L19 head studs
•ARP mains
•ARP rod bolts

Performance CNC checked/built head with:
•+.5mm over intake/exhaust valves
•GSC chromoly seats
•GSC titanium retainers
•GSC beehive springs
•GSC viton valve seals
•GSC R2 cams
•O-Ring'ed Head

Brand new (was still in box when I got the car) Stage 3 Sheptrans
Shep transfer case
Exedy Twin HD clutch/flywheel
ACT mono lock ring
STM clutch fork stop
Driveshaft Shop axels (front and rear)

Buschur Racing FMIC/piping
Tial BOV
STM sealed catch can setup (custom lines)
ID2000 injectors (stock rail/FPR)
Buschur double pumper intank setup
AEM EMS V1 (hate it/dead technology)
Buschur dual stage MBC
Buschur ported IM
Buschur ported EM
New FP Black JB (hate it and the problems it has)
Buschur downpipe back exhaust
Custom intake pipe to turbo

Stock VIII Enkei wheels
+20 spacers (front)
+25 spacers (rear)
Custom painted (by me) OEM Brembos (Posche Arena Red)
DBA 5000 2 piece slotted rotors (front)
Hawk HP Plus pads (front)
Stock rear brakes
Bilsteins (Front and Rear) shocks
Swift springs (Front and Rear)
Mitsubishi wind deflectors (love these things!)

Motor was assembled by me using all OEM Mitsubishi gaskets and seals including head gasket. Haven't dyno tuned it yet but have don't a street tune for break in and put it on the dyno for a baseline which put down 380whp/343wtq on 14psi on E85.

This has been a project filled with blood sweat and tears. I will say despite some setbacks I do love this car a LOT! First Mitsubishi I have ever owned (mainly because everything else they produce sucks). I have built a few other cars including but not limited to:

•'89 240 notch, SR20DET (508whp/461wtq)
•'00 Corvette Coupe supercharged (640whp/612wtq)
•'05 STI bone stock/totaled
•'08 MINI Cooper S (bolt-ons/no numbers)
•AE86 Corolla notch (300whp/269wtq)

Glad to be apart of the #1 Evo forum. Just wanted to say hello and give you a little background on myself.
