I own a '97 Lancer MR, and I have personally rebuilt the 1.8L engine myself, I can produce engineers certificates so its all legal. I moulded, bored and polished the parts myself. 90% of the engine is now solid titanium and the rest is carbon billet steel. It's fully balanced, and a hell of a lot lighter. It took about 8 months! Now down to details, 4x1000cc injectors bored to 2.0L titanium NA intake running through a custom twin-turbo, top mount water to air intercooler super high flow intake manifold custom high response throttle body Stage 3 carbon cams hidden twin pipe solid titanium 3" cat back exhaust with silencers WAVE aluminium radiator steel braided silicon hoses Had a bit of trouble fine tuning the fuel rail but got it going 2x660cc fuel pumps titanium heat-wrapped 4 to 2 headers 0.8mm copper head gasket NGK Iridium IX spark plugs Top Gun 8mm high flow ignition leads Dual spark ignition coil one piece carbon driveshaft carbon flywheel titanium front axle custom 6 speed heavy duty gearbox custom mapped Apexi power FC stand alone engine management system For now the redlines at 9200rpm That's it so far, im saving for some new silicon tyres. I haven't stuck it on a dyno yet but, the way the stock tyres spin out im guessing theres a little bit of a power increase there. End of brag

how can it be Naturally Aspirated if you are running twin turbos?

Sorry been off 4 a bit, in response to Billiard I meant that it is NA but I've got it running through an intercooler rated for a twin-turbo, it cools it down so it can suck more in, which means more power, but it's not big enough to drop the pressure. Plus, I'm not really fussed on the turbos, it takes a lot of tuning to get the response time to match that of an NA. Just for bjsstang, I've since put 17x8 Enkei Arashi rims on it, with toyo Proxes T1R, R-compound semi-slicks, filled with nitrogen, and a full race-grade wheel alignment. Spiked with a bit of nitro-methane on the dyno it pulled, wait for it, 298KW at 7450rpm and 513Nm at 6100, without boost! But because most of the power is in the weight reduction, it'll have a lot more power moving on the road. And carbon flywheels are a lot lighter and stronger than aluminium or a grinded version. And 4 those of you who don't know what I mean by the "hidden exhaust", I mean the pipes end halfway under the car instead of out the back, I've salvaged the OEM muffler and bolted it back on to make it look like it's stock. I've also added Top Secret suspension from Japan, they sell a cup kit so you can electronically control the height of the struts, NO HYDRAULICS OR AIRBAGS, and it's fast too! And the bootlid has been remade with carbon fibre and colour-matched to the OEM paint to hide it and lighten the rear to help with cornering. The handling's brilliant! This time I've almost paid off a full Alpine stereo system, all new state-of-the-art stuff. DVD headeck 6 1/2" Type-R components at the front 6 1/2" Type-R coaxials at the back 12" Type-S sub V12 75wX4 main amp and digital 750w sub amp Anyway keep the questions coming in I might get some ideas of what to do next! MAJOR SLEEPER COMING SOON!

Fair enough, I don't actually have a digital camera at the moment but I'll see if I can borrow one from somewhere, outside it looks almost stock, even in the engine bay there's only a few differences. The radiator's been painted black, the cam gears aged, ignition leads painted black, and the rubber OEM intake pipe has been put on over the titanium one, while going for the ultimate sleeper, it's designed not to be defectable, the cops over here are pretty strict when it comes to mods. The only main difference is the heat wrapped headers, and the Redline intake filter pod hanging out. I'll be getting the stereo in a few weeks, so I'll get you pics of that too!
