It's finally time to sell my beloved Evo. I've owned this car for quite some time now and at one point contemplated selling it, but instead decided to build it even more than it was and make a complete animal. I succeeded.
What you're going to be purchasing is one of the most immaculate, well cared for Evos in the Midwest that has had ZERO expenses spared along the way. I've built numerous cars in the past and never take the short road just to save a quick buck. I made the mistake when purchasing this car of buying it from someone who took shortcuts and spent the first couple months sorting everything out. I then decided to build it and turn it into the ultimate street and track monster that would destroy most bikes and anything else it came across while still handling like a GTR. You'll find that most Evo's are owned by the younger crowd that lets things go until they break when this car was the exact opposite. Anytime any sort of maintenance even came into slight question, the car was at the shop getting it fixed. I never waited for anything and always bought top of the line parts for the car.
All of the work has been done by an extremely reputable shop in the IL area. I will disclose full details, receipts, and everything to an interested party and am more than willing to arrange a PPI for anyone who would like at the facility of your choice. I have absolutely nothing to hide and welcome it! I know I get all of my cars PPI'd as well.
The Evo is currently tuned on E85 with two different tunes. There is the daily, low boost tune that makes 500AWHP and then the kill tune which makes 750AWHP. I have two ECU's available, the factory ECU that will pass emissions with ease and a standalone Autronic ECU which will offer you a little more power and customization, but will not pass emissions in some states. You can have your pick of either depending on your needs for the car.
Over the last two years I've thrown about 30K (I have receipts for every single bolt on the car + build pictures as well) at the car to make it the ultimate street and track toy. Unfortunately I haven't been able to make it to the track this year as I've been traveling 20+ days out of the month, but for anyone who is looking for a road course monster, this is it.

Preparing for next month's Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, Mitsubishi - the presenting sponsor of this year's PPIHC - has unveiled its entrant for the race: the all-electric MiEV Evolution II. Building off last year's MiEV-inspired entrant, the Evolution II has received numerous improvements, including a more powerful electric drive system, a lower center of gravity and even a more traditional racecar look. Driving a pair of MiEV Evolution II models this year will be Hiroshi Masuoka from Mitsubishi vehicle development and six-time PPIHC motorcycle winner, Greg Tracy.
Both MiEV Evolution II racers employ a quartet of electric motors (last year's car used just three), and output has been increased from 280 kilowatts (375 horsepower) up to 400 KW (536 hp). For improved handling, the cars' lithium-ion battery packs help provide lower centers of gravity, and both Masuoka's and Tracy's cars have received active yaw control, stability control and redesigned anti-lock braking systems. Hopefully, this will help them stick to the mountain better. As previously mentioned, even their look has changed, with less of a wide-body i-MiEV feel and more of a racecar appearance. We think the finished product would actually make for a pretty cool Le Mans Prototype racer, or perhaps an electrically powered rival for trackday cars like those from Radical.

In the minds of many auto enthusiasts, Mitsubishi has become an afterthought. It has transformed from a company known for its turbocharged, all-wheel-drive rally machines into an automaker with a very boring lineup. Maybe we are being unfair, though. While the company doesn't have much of a performance presence anymore, the Japanese brand is doing quite well financially.
According to Reuters, Mitsubishi Motors had an operating profit of 123.4 billion yen ($1.2 billion) worldwide for the fiscal year that ended in March. That's twice as much as last year and a new all-time record for the Japanese automaker. It's even paying dividends to investors for the first time in 16 years, and its expected profit of 135 billion yen ($1.3 billion) in the new fiscal year matches a goal it had set for itself to achieve two years from now.
The automaker currently focuses much of its efforts on Southeast Asia, which accounts for about a quarter of its sales. It will put even greater attention there in the coming years with more local production, according to Reuters.
