Here are some more information for Turbo Tuner:

The 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution MR (also know as MR Evolution or MR EVO). The MR EVO is one of the finest all-around street performance cars available. This is attributed to its affordable price, (you can get a used 2006 MR EVO for about $20K-28K) its AWD system and its 2.0 liter, 286 horsepower, 289 ft-lbs torque, 4-cylinder engine.

Modifying the MR EVO presents many options as there are a plethora of race companies with parts available. There are certain points on the MR EVO that should be addressed first. MR Evolutions come with many factory placed restrictions. These OEM restrictions were put in place to make the car safer and more reliable for everyday driving. Unfortunately, these restrictions keep your MR EVO from making the most power it can. Below I have the top 5 tuning tips to unleash the true power of your MR EVO!

#1 High-Flowing Air Intake Filter

The MR EVO has the largest stock turbo in any of the Lancer Evolution line-up vehicles. The stock air box is extremely restrictive and a simple air intake replacement will free-up lots of power. The turbo itself will spool up a lot faster, decreasing turbo lag. Gains of anywhere from 8-15hp should be expected. Performance intakes for the MR EVO are very simple to install as well.

#2 High-Flowing 3 Inch Downpipe

The downpipe is one the most crucial parts of any turbocharged car. Upgrading your downpipe will increase loads of horsepower and torque throughout the RPM range. Your turbo will have enhanced spooling characteristics as well. What does this mean? It means that not only will your turbo spool up faster, but your overall boost curve will change as well. When it comes to the MR EVO, the most important place on the exhaust is immediately after the turbo.

#3 High-Flowing 3 Inch Exhaust System

The OEM exhaust on the Lancer Evolution MR is very restrictive. Upgrading the exhaust to a full 3 inch unit does nothing but good in terms of power. Not to mention that sweet exhaust tone that the MR Evolution can make. You will notice an immediate increase in top end power along with a beautiful exhaust tone in the upper RPM. With a variety of styles and finishes available, you can add a little personality to your MR EVO.

#4 High-Performance Clutch

The Mitsubishi Lancer MR clutch is not bad, it just gets bad when you start adding more power to the car. The clutch is must for any MR EVO with performance parts. In my experience with tuning MR Evolutions I found that when the car starts producing about 300hp to the wheels the clutch must be upgraded. When upgrading the clutch you should always replace the flywheel with a lightweight performance version as well. Not only will your clutch hold the power your engine makes, but your overall horsepower will go up as well!

#5 Digital Boost Controller

Boost is one of the most important aspects of the MR EVO. Raising the boost level of the Lancer Evolution is one of the most effective ways to increase horsepower and torque. I have seen a 1 lbs increase in boost result in increases of up to 10 hp! Imagine when you increase the boost by 2, 3, 4, or 5 lbs? Not only that, but a digital boost controller will increase the spool response of your turbo as well. Controlling boost is also crucial if you plan to do more modifications in the future.

There are many options for tuning the Mitsubishi Lancer EVO MR. But these top 5 tips will start you in the right direction to be on the winning team.

Nitrous Oxide: Cheaper Than a Turbo

Adding power to your ride can be an expensive, time-consuming task.  Both turbocharger and superchargers can be used on most vehicles to dramatically increase both low and high-end power; however, they are expensive and require quite a bit of tuning to get them correctly matched to your ride.  How is a budget conscious tuner (by necessity, not choice, obviously) get the power boost needed, without breaking the bank?  Nitrous oxide is the popular answer.  You'll find that nitrous oxide (NOS for many turners), can double your horsepower in a mere fraction of a second and can work on both fuel injected and carbureted vehicles.

What is nitrous oxide, you ask?  Nitrous has long been used by hot-rodders to give them that little bit of oomph they need to beat the clock or their opponent.  Nitrous is a gas, which is injected into the engine, providing a better burn.  Nitrous does not actually burn, but makes it possible for your fuel to burn hotter and longer.  It acts much like a cold air intake, but super condensing the air in your intake, creating cold, dense air that engines love.  In addition, nitrous kits come in two flavors: wet and dry.

Wet Nitrous Kits – Wet kits are the predominant type today.  These kits inject nitrous with fuel into your air intake, just before the throttle body.  The reason that these kits have become more popular is that many manufacturers believe they provide a better fuel-nitrous mixture, giving you a cleaner burn.

Dry Nitrous Kits – A dry kit injects nitrous into your air intake, separate from the fuel. These kits are still popular and still provide a fantastic boost of power for your ride.

What does a nitrous kit consist of?  The answer to that will depend on the kit you purchase.  At the very least, your kit will consist of the nitrous bottle (where the nitrous oxide is stored), a length of stainless steel line and a nitrous solenoid (which handles the injection).  These simple kits are controlled by the driver, who pushes a button when an injection is needed.  Kits that are more expensive contain a computer control box, which houses fuel and nitrous solenoids and automates the injection process based on a vast amount of information from the engine.

The typical nitrous setup finds the bottle installed behind the driver or passenger seat or in the trunk if you have one.  Hatchbacks usually have the bottle mounted in the hatch, though the rear passenger floorboard is also popular.  A length of stainless steel line runs from the bottle, through the interior of the vehicle, through the firewall and into your engine compartment, where it attaches to either your solenoid or your computer box.

Can you install nitrous kits on your own?  You certainly can; however, professional installation is highly recommended and will help keep you safer.  Nitrous is a safe alternative to turbochargers and superchargers, but must be used responsibly in order to maintain that level of safety.
