The turbo stickers gotta go. I'm going to paint the car myself and make it all nice and perdy like yours :o) I'll try to get some replacements from Mitsubishi if theyre still available...

You will never find those stickers... EVER. As far as I know that is the ONLY set that has been documented on this site. Good luck though bud.

Beautiful car man. I have to admit the video of that thing smoking that Evo is what started it all for me too.

I'm going to look into getting the turbo stickers. If they aren't available from Mitsu I can at least see if a graphics/vinyl/Trim shop can replicate some quality ones.

Nate I'll keep you updated but the motor thats going in the black one. So far it will definately have 280 Cams, BC Springs, and a 60-1. Plus Cody had an EPROM already for it so I can use DSMlink. Its definately going to need slicks!

Ahhhh very jealous, I would love to get a hta68 but can't see myself spending $800 on it when I can get a turbo that flows 10lb/min more for less. I'm sure it will be a sick setup though!

For me it was the right choice, anything bigger I would have wanted to upgrade my intercooler. Also none of my IC pipes will have to be redone. I figured pay a little more and have a bolt on affair :)

I'm sure some of you will call me crazy, but I down graded the Mirage a bit this time. I loved driving it, but the thing was like an on off switch for power. Down low it cruised fine, but I just felt that there had to be a better way... So I installed a Cyclone intake. I'm hoping the tq curve will be more linear and make it even more fun to drive. I also installed a full AC system, a previous owner had removed it... Hope it works good, as it cost a decent bit!

Hoping to fire her up next week sometime, since I sold my wheels I can't drive it anyway till I get new ones. I'll be wheel browsing online tonight. Too bad all the really nice wheels cost more than my car...

Here is a picture of how it sits, I've still got a days worth of finishing off the "loose ends" but over all I'm happy with the blacked out AC lines and the Cyclone install.
