Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Tommi Makinen Edition

[Rocco]

I can see it ending in tears when your Mrs finds out how much you're spending on it

Stop talking Andy

Look how it looks my new billet compressor wheel



We will try to push it a reliable thing between 450/500 hp,so hopefully the whole engine,turbo, transmission and clutch should hold " forever" , more without track days or drag races

I can't see where that thing is going end.....

all ported throats with polished chambers and 5 angle valve seats and 16 new valves.

[Rocco]

that thing goes slowly but steadily

An evo with a forged engine is worth more than a standard engine,as long as its a good spec build.

AFAIK it will be a 2.0 long rod build

But didn't take much to get him to change his mind...

Just remember a stock car in the long run will keep its value..

yes,i will keep all the parts.... but i still dont know what we will put.

the only thing clear is that the engine and clutch will be new....


i would never use stock rods in those cars with the engine open.... it does not worth.


also i bought the car for me not thinking to sell it and earn money with the time


i will ask Will soon to see how is going

You know what I like

I didn't break the engine wanting

No Sh¡t! You don't say

[quattrostyle]

And I'm easy to convince

[Rocco]

Nice, i thought you were not going to modify it

It's not my fault,is engine's fault,!
It needs to be rebuilt,so at this point new forged everything is the way to go and worth true?

Upgraded camshafts and remapping is because Will suggested it.... The same as he prefers to put turbo kit to run 550hp everyday

And I'm easy to convince

[Rocco]

By the way.... An used car like this with LHD in Spain cost between 40 and 45k €¡¡

[Rocco]

Any updates Tomas?

Not too much.except we decided to build a new and forged engine ,with new everything ,clutch included.

As I'm not rich, for the moment we'll put original turbo,injectors,etc...and get it mapped with jun 264 camshafts and if the budget allows Will wants to install a gtx3076 and keep it with stock looking as possible.

Also latest is I've brought all LHD parts needed to do the conversion and Will is able to do the job,that will be easier with engine out.

I've not too many hurry,I prefer a well done job and receive a finished car once the car is here
