Please direct all inquiries to member Chris here: http://www.6speedonline.com/forums/p...=newpm&u=39142 Name: Chris Ginev Location: Collegeville/ Horsham, PA 19426/ 19044 Contact Info: chris@gvautosport.com Year: 2006 Make: Mitsubishi Model: Evo IX Color: Tarmac Black Mileage: 36,567 Transmission: Manual Price: $38,500 Description: This 2006 Evo IX is one of my company's demo vehicles and the time has come to move on something new. I've completed everything I dreamt of with this project. In the beginning, I wanted an all around beast...something that could be daily driven, taken to the road course, auto crossed, driven to and from the drag strip while running 10s, still be reliable, and be a sharp car while doing those things. I believe I have accomplished everything I set out to do. The 2.3L Crower/Wiseco HD engine has 9.0:1 compression and makes over 600whp yet has great manners. What more could I ask for? I purchased this car in November of 2007 and immediately went to work. 1.5 years later I had completed what you now see. The modification list is extensive and expensive. No cost was spared and no corners were cut. 10 months of labor and over $30,000 was invested into this build. There are 625 miles on the car since the build was completed. The mod list is extensive so I will let it speak for itself... Engine Crower Rods $750 Wiseco HD stroker pistons $800 Eagle stroker crank $1,000 ACL bearings $100 Mitsu OEM gasket kit $300 All new OEM parts (front case, tensioners, pulleys, etc) $800 Fluidampr $400 GSC CNC'd head $3,500 GSC beehive springs Supertech 1mm oversized valves Supertech bronze valve guides GSC S2 cams $600 Fidanza adjustable exhaust cam gear $150 JMF small battery kit $200 Braille Carbon battery $250 Optima 51R yellow top (behind rear seat) $200 JMF coolant catch can $100 HKS kevlar timing belt $160 Zaklee clear timing cover $100 Avid motor mount $100 GV Autosport custom front motor mount $100 Hallman Pro RX boost controller $125 Intake JMF SMIM $600 JMF 2.5" piping $500 JMF/Garrett FMIC $1,200 JMF 4" intake $150 BW S362 $1,400 Perrin BOV $200 Exhaust JMF tubular exhaust manifold $1,200 GV Autosport downpipe $400 GV Autosport test pipe $200 HKS carbon catback $800 Tial 44mm wastegate $325 Fuel FIC 1050cc injectors $300 Bosch 044 pump $225 -8AN fuel system $500 Aeromotive AFPR $150 Aeromotive Fuel rail $150 Transmission Shep race trans $3,000 Evo 8 3/4 4.11 final drive Quarter Master twin disc clutch w/ hydraulic TOB $1,900 Exterior JDM Mitsubishi rear bumper $600 VIS carbon lip $400 APR carbon front splitter $325 Rexpeed carbon side splitters $300 Rexpeed carbon rear bumper side splitters $100 Suspension/ Brakes KW Variant 3 coilovers $2,400 Tein pillow ball mounts F&R $400 Carbing aluminum strut bar $400 5zigen FN01R 17x9 $800 Dunlop Direzza Z1 Star Spec 255/40-17 $800 Stoptech rotors $400 Hawk pads $200 Electronics/Tuning Stock ECU Autometer gauges $50 AEM wideband $200 Interior Binary seat lowering brackets $125 Orbital double DIN kit $300 Powdercoat/Ceramic All powdercoating by Martin at Liquid Powder Coats $500 All ceramic coating by Chuck at Bonehead Performance $200 I.C.E AVH-P4100DVD $600 JL 300/4 $600 JL 500/1 $650 JL 10w6 $880 Focal K2P 165KR2 $1,000 Focal K2P 165KRC $680 interconnects $300 Total $31,435 As stated, over $30k was invested in this build NOT including labor, machine work, or tuning. This figure also does not represent the down time involved! The Evo was recently tuned to 609whp and 525 ft/lbs of torque on a failing wastegate spring (35psi peak @5500 rpm falling to 25psi by redline) on C16. I've since resolved the issue by putting a secondary spring in but have not taken it back to the dyno as of yet. We estimate it to make north of 675 now...this is an estimate. The car also made 520whp on 93 pump gas (no meth) several weeks prior. The Evo has gone 11.19@128 on the stock block and 500whp on pump gas. I'd expect this setup to go 10.50s on pump and possibly crack 9s with race gas and a good driver. The car is EASILY drivable on a daily basis. The engine is as smooth as glass while cruising. You'd never know there's 600whp+ waiting to be unleashed. The clutch is a bit loud as are most twin discs, but you get used to it. I can swap this out at wholesale pricing if you can't handle it. :lol: The pump is also a bit loud as it's external...if I get my asking price, I can swap in a quiet Weldon at my cost if you're interested. Flaws: The car has a clean title and has never been in an accident. As for flaws, they are minimal. There are two dings in the paint (driver's door, and passenger's quarter panel) both of which I will have repaired by Paintless Dent Removal. Also, the front bumper and hood have several chips as you'd imagine a 35k mile car would. The interior is flawless. An extensive detail was just completed on the paint. 20+ hours were spent correcting and swirls/scratches. It is literally a mirror now. Cost: Based on KBB private party value of $23,510, my $31k+ mod investment, a lowball of 100 hours of labor ($7500), it would cost in excess of $62,000 plus a long down time to replicate this vehicle. Asking price is $38,500 OBO. I'd say that's MORE than fair. I'm in no hurry to sell the car, nor do I NEED to sell the car. If I don't get an offer I feel is reasonable, I'll just keep it.

Thanks for posting this up Chuck.

[ChrisScat]

Hot car, very clean! Any videos of it?

[CGinev]

None with the current motor setup unfortunately. I have one from the previous motor when the car went 11.19. I can post it up if people are interested.

[SuperleggeraGT3]

Wow! What a monster!! Good luck with sale!

[CGinev]

Thank you!

Could possibly be interested in an interesting trade.

[topcarbon]

Im game for a trade.

How about a Lamborghini....interesting enough?

[CGinev]

I'd love your Lambo...one of my all time favorites, especially in that color. Unfortunately, the wife would kill me if I came home with that at this point in our lives.

Let her know that around town she will be treated like a celeb.

[CGinev]

That attention she'd LOVE! Now the attention I got, would be the end of me.
