Hey guys!

Got directed here by someone off CarDomain :)
This guy: Brandon: DCITMF (http://www.cardomain.com/ride/832442)

Thought I'd check it out!

I drive a 2000 Mitsubishi Galant VR4 Type-V

Absolutely LOVE it! I've owned it for just over a year now, and I still get excited every time I jump in to it hehe..

I look forward to seeing what you guys have done to your machines! Seems you have a lot more available to you than we do over here!

Welcome to TGC. You car looks great. What kind of numbers did you put down?

Tommo

The car is running on a bad tune at the moment, so I need to get that sorted..

I have a boost controller set low, due to the boost cut settings on the stock ECU..
Front Mount and dumps down to a high flow cat and 3" exhaust..

Only placed 151.5kw atw that day on the dyno, quite disappointed with that figure! But on a stock untuned ECU it's to be expected, it's a matter of money.. Needed all the breathing mods before getting a nice tune :)

Oh well, beats STI WRX's haha

Evo swap is the way to go!

Oh snap, that's heaps =/

Haha yeah I know. If it wasn't we would have a bunch of VR4 full conversions here. You'll see a lot of people here just swap in an Evo head and pull a lot of power from them. Still wouldn't mind having a Twin Turbo AWD though :-(

Tommo

Yeah I noticed a heap of those conversions in those cars! The Evo motor pulls a lot of power very easily.. More power than the 6A13's seem to pull! It's annoying LOL
