Build story
I’ve always been a Mitsubishi fanboy. I fell in love with the 3000GT from Gran Turismo 2 when I was in high school. Then, the second-generation Eclipse.
Which I owned from 2002-2012. I loved that car, but after my divorce in 2017, I finally was able to get my hands on my Evo. I couldn’t be happier with it and it has been dead-on reliable.
I’ve done 85-90% of the work myself. But we all need a shop or expertise at some point. The only shops to work on my Evo are Action Autowerks, ASM and Boostin Performance.
