I DO HAVE CLEAR TITLE IN HAND.   This car hasn't been registered for quite some time, so the car history check ebay performs shows it as issue found.   On with the details... 


This is a one of a kind 3rd gen eclipse.  So much time , parts , money has gone into this over the last 6 years.  I have taken picture of the main receipts to show what the engine and transmission alone have into it.  My LOSS IS YOUR GAIN.   If you have the money and time you could part this car out and make a profit.  I just bought a house and so many things have hit me i didn't expect.   Selling this isn't easy because i haven't seen it through to completion and i hate that.   This has been Turbo Charged the right way which entails the following: 
Forged pistons blueprinted and balanced
Forged Pauter Rods blueprinted and balanced
Forged crankshaft polished and balanced
Bored .90 over for 8 1/2 compression for turbo
Solid stainless cometic head gasket
Heads have had a valve job and magnafluxed
High volume oil pump for transmission and engine
External transmission cooler ( better than stock cooling )
External power steering cooler
Evo 9 Map Sensor
Ignition system upgraded with MSD 
Custom oil catch can
One way check ball in place of PCV
Largest intercooler i could bolt on 
Greddy Blow off valve
Turbonetics Evolution wastegate 
T-4 Precision Turbo
All exhaust is 3 inch Mandrel stainless from downpipe to tailpipe
2.5" mandrel stainless up to the turbo from both heads
Boost Pressure Gauge
Wideband air fuel gauge
pyrometer for exhaust Temp coming from engine
Turbo timer ( needs wired up ) 
Battery relocated to trunk using 2 Gauge wire
Tactrix 2.0 for your tuning needs
Struts are new kyb agx adjustable
All new brakes even tho they show rust
Some rust around strut towers and on back hatch
Custom paint job extends to the bumper which i do have, just didn't take pictures of it. I drove this car with new wheels and tires and struts and brakes for about 2000 miles.  Everything drove really nice and handled amazing.  The original motor went bad and i went and bought the same year motor from LKQ.  Then started my desire to have this turbocharged since the engine was already out. 

The last few steps to get this car tuned are very minor.  It needs the gasoline flushed and a 3.5 diamante MAF sensor wired up.  There are plenty of tuners that can use EVOSCAN to flash the ECU.  I have checked with some of the top minds in tuning these vehicles.  I have the correct 256kb Ecu.   I have much more documented in regards to money that has been put into this.  All the clamps for intercooling are stainless t-bolt clamps.  Everything has been wired up using solder weatherproof connectors.  If you know anything about cars and wiring you know these are expensive, yet the right way to do engine wiring.  I didn't spare expense in doing this.   I wanted things done right, yet now am paying the price since i don't have time, or funds to keep a house going and a project.   My house is now my project!  I'm sure i have left some important details out and notes on my work.   I will be happy to answer any questions and send more pictures upon request.    I am losing my butt on this, but i have no choice.  As with anything in life you have to take your losses and move on at times.   I can drop what i'm doing anytime so you can come look at this and see for yourself how awesome it is.  I have tons of extra parts and things i didn't use that i will throw in.   Again this is sold As-Is , it does not run right now, but it can very soon.

Mitsubishi Evo snow frolic caught by aerial camera

Tue, 30 Apr 2013

Guido Tschugg is a professional mountain biker and a Red Bull-sponsored athlete in downhill and four-cross. He's also a fan of the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution and drifting in the snow, and with the help of filmmaker Mario Feil and drone videographers airv8, the rally car and the powder are combined to glorious effect.
We could continue talking about it, but that would delay you from enjoying the two minutes of frosty beauty in the video below.

Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV US launch delayed over battery shortage

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

Mitsubishi resumed full-scale battery production in August after a five-month shutdown due to a safety investigation. Supplier Lithium Energy Japan has been delivering 4,000 battery packs each month since September, but that's apparently still not enough to fill the overseas inventory pipeline for the Outlander PHEV and i subcompact EV while launching the Outlander PHEV here in the US. So instead of the previous tentative launch date of Fall 2014, the plug-in hybrid's Stateside on-sale date has been pushed back until 2015.
That's according to Automotive News, which also notes that Mitsubishi has sold 11,300 plug-in Outlanders this year, though that number reflects the production stoppage over the battery issues. As of April, battery supplier LEJ will be able to supply 5,000 packs per month just for the Outlander, but company president Osamu Masuko has gone on record saying that production will have to rise above that in order to make the US launch.
Every Mitsubishi dealer (and hopefully a fair number of consumers) will be looking forward to a crossover that, for the moment, doesn't really have natural rivals. The Outlander PHEV can drive 32 miles on electricity alone, has a top speed of 75 miles per hour in EV mode and offers all-wheel drive with a towing capacity of over 3,000 pounds. The model should get an impressive MPGe rating from the EPA when it finally arrives and it figures to be a bellwether for the plug-in Outlander Sport and Pajero utility vehicles that are expected to arrive after it. Hopefully 2015 will be its year.

2014 Pikes Peak Hill Climb Practice Day 1

Wed, 25 Jun 2014

This year the big news about the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb is about who isn't showing up. Sebastien Loeb, fresh off his record setting run last year, hasn't bothered coming back (and probably won't unless someone breaks his record). The Millen family is also noticeably absent. Rhys and Rod have been driving here for the past couple of decades but it looks like Rhys is focusing his efforts on Global RallyCross.
Last year Pikes Peak added a fourth practice day on Tuesday to allow drivers to get more time on the mountain. It's an optional practice day, but most drivers show up.
Today, both Time Attack divisions (1 and 2) as well as Unlimited division drove the lower third of the mountain. Pikes Peak Open, Open Wheel, Electric Production, Electric Modified, Exhibition and Vintage all practiced on the middle section, and bikes power sports did the top section.
