Well I finally have the new DD/Winter car in my possession. Basically I want to keep it healthy and running as a DD but am planning some small mods and restoration/upkeep mods to keep it clean and comfortable.
Specs:
1995 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4
Pearl White
Charcoal Grey Interior
6-Speed Manual
13G Twin Turbo Upgrade (NEW)
Stage 1 3SX Clutch (NEW)
Engine Rebuild (NEW)
APEXI Turbo Timer
TurboXS Recirculating BOV
3.5" Downpipe
Full CAT delete
K&N Air Filter
Chrome Y-Pipe
Exterior is completely stock along with the interior. Any mods to the exterior and interior will be for stock appearance maintenance, excluding stereo which I do plan to upgrade to a quality sound system. Not a trunk rattling system, just something with good overall quality.
Future plans for 10’:
Rebuilt Transmission
Interior rebuild. New seats, carpet, plastics as needed.
Regular maintenance.
Anyhow, consider hotwiring the stock FP just due to the turbos. I been out of the game but you might want to do the stock BCS trick to make sure the stock boost isn’t dropping off.
Also, TurboXS might be a bit weird on the let off due to the air coming out. Might want to consider a recirculating BOV. It does sound mean tho.
Forge makes an incredible recirculating/BOV combo. Chris Rando had one on his TT and it’s also supposed to help out with the turbo system somehow. I’m not sure the exact details but you can check out :
I love VR-4’s these are one of my favorite cars but the maintenance required on them almost makes it seem not worth it to me. You already have a rebuilt engine & turbos and plan on rebuilding the tranny
