Default 91 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX

I'm almost finished with the car for awhile...and decided to take a few pictures.

Specs are as follows.

Engine:
Stock Longblock
Extrude Honed Intake Manifold
HKS 264, 272 Cams
2g Exhaust Manifold
MHI Evo3 16g
MHI Evo3 02 Housing
Buschur 2.5inch Downpipe
Thermal 3.0inch Exhaust
Extreme Psi Race FMIC
Fluidyne Radiator

Transmission
Built 1g AWD Tranny
4Spider Center Diff
Quartermaster Twin Disk Clutch

Suspension
H&R lowering Springs
KYB Shocks
Enkei RPF1 Wheels

I'm running a MR Freeze Methanol Injection kit, 22psi (at the moment) and an safc. The plan is to run 26psi, pump gas, and hopefully get a low 12/high 11sec pass out of the car.

i considered cutting it off...

but the exhaust tip functions much better when it extends past the rear bumper. if it doesn't extend past the rear bumper...it tends to vibrate through the entire car. painting it flat black helped...but i may take it to a shop to have a turndown made for it instead.

a 50trim or MHI 20g is always an option. if i can get 115mph out of this setup with air conditioning, full weight...etc...then i'm keeping this turbo.

otherwise, i will consider something a bit bigger.

Previous owner was a girl...who kept the car super clean.

However, she didn't check the oil and ran it dry...which destroyed the motor and put a rod through the engine block. So...in a way i figured i'd pay tribute to her by keeping the sticker...

and...if i race someone on the street...i can always claim its my gf's car and i'm just trying to get to work.
