Hello guys i just registered here because today i bought 2002 Mirage De coupe.
i have some questions to all of you who has mirage hows the car??? does it have any BIG problems???
i drove it and everything was alright it has 67 000 miles. Engine sounds good transmission is working good too. its quiet on bumps and bad road. the only thing i didnt like was little shaking on brake pedal when i was standing on red light... what could it be??? the gas was very low almost empty maybe thats the problem???

Welcome to the site! I usually run about 350-400 depending on how I drive. And that's on a turbo charged 4g15 running 9 pounds of boost and a driver with a heavy foot.

Do you have the 5spd or auto tranny? the 5g coupe is an awesome autoX car with a little suspension work and a few power mods.

Something like that. Really all depends on how you drive it. I can get as few as 28mpg when I'm really getting on it. But the last time I went out to see my little sister at school in Indy, I averaged 38.4mpg on the highway doing anywhere between 55-65mph. So ya, they're pretty economical little cars. Only bad thing is that I have to put the premium fuel in, so I get raped every time I go fill up.

yea man,
sounds like an auto tranny trademark to me.
ive owned both auto and manual in the 4g93 and no have 2000 de coupe 1.5 (gas saver!

)
so anyways this is off the subject...how do i get ahold of a turbo for my 4g15?
anyone want to sell a turo kit, not an entire car because ive got the works going on, coupe, hid's, halo one peice headlights, 17's, tein adjustable coilovers, strut braces, yadda yadda, need a turbo safe for my car, maybe between 8 and 13 lbs of boost????
lil evo you seem pretty knowledgable in all things mitsubishi...any pointers???
turbo kit, cost, hp to the wheels, so forth??
