Talking Well I finally bought a fun car. Not a Mitsu though.

Here is the car I picked up a couple weeks ago from a guy down in Iowa City.

Its got a couple cool things done to it and it a blast to drive, just need to get a little better suspension and a solid 92-93 octane tune.

Quick and short of the mods-
s-trim w/ 2.95 8-rib 13-15psi
edelbrock alum heads 0-ringed
tfs intake
AFM Powerpipe
AFM PMS v4
38lb injectors
pro-m 80 MAF
MSD 6BTM
FRPP shortys
king cobra clutch
3.55 gears
FMS alum radiator
Uego wideband
2 5/8" boost and fuel pressure gauges
MM lower control arms in rear
welded sub frame connectors

Probably some other shit that I am forgetting but oh well.

Here are some pics with a finger smudge on the lens.

Dude! That thing is tits! It's even cleaner than the Omni and I must admit more attractive too How much did you pick it up for?

I paid $2700 for the omni.

Yeah. I probably should change that.


Glad you guys like it. As far as the Laser goes, no thanks. If it had a little better paint on it I might have held on to it for a while longer.

I will post up the dyno numbers after the tune. Just need to find some time to get it up to DB or Hitech. Track times will follow too. I dont live to far from Rock Falls during the week when I am at work.

Re: Well I finally bought a fun car. Not a Mitsu though.

Very nice, I love sleeper Stangs. My neighbor next door has a very clean 91 LX with a fully built motor, it moves out pretty good. We're going to line up some time this summer, I need to teach him some humility.

Talking Re: Well I finally bought a fun car. Not a Mitsu though.

I am going to pick it up tomorrow from Casey at Hitech. He spent the week with it and worked some magic.

The car put down 425/415 on the 92 tune. While he was tuning with the E85 we found out that my fuel pumps and stock lines arent enough. Time to upgrade and then have him finish tuning on the corn.

So far on the corn it put down 476hp at 5300rpm but fuel pressure started dropping so he aborted for now. In a few weeks it will be 500hp with the E85. I cant wait.
