Hi - I figured I would start on here with a post about my car and what not. I started miEVO.net to bring Michigan EVO's and Lancer's in 2005. Even though the car scene has died down a bit here it has given me the chance to build on my 4G63 background that started in college and about 7 different DSM's through that time. The best in a DSM is 11.9 @ 117 with an old school 60-1, after that run the balance shaft seized and grenaded the motor. It was a stock motor so no big deal. With the EVO I was able to get my personal best to 12.2 @ 115 on a Fprced Performance (junk) white rabbit turbo. After that turbo died after 7 months and they would not warranty I decided to step up. In 2007 I found out about the GTK series and I had to have one. I built my EVO motor and in 09' had a piston to valve clearance issue and ended up needing to build my motor again. Before the motor went here is the best the car did:

About 35 miles after this run the car made some funny noises then it was on to built motor #2. Here is the mod list of the car and a you can see the couple of attachments to the thread. I have many more pictures I just wanted to start somewhere.
