EVO III coupe :)

[poteau]

Hey guys,

I am new to here because I have been looking to finally get into upgrading the engine on my Plymouth colt to EVO 3 coupe upgrade.

The car was pieced together from all OEM pieces, and it's AWD of course

That is a really nice car you built there! I am very interested and would like to know if you can elaborate on you you did this built.

At the moment the evo 1 engine in it is completely stock.

So I am just in the process of putting together some parts, some are installed, others on the way:

ECMlink V3 - lite (full version not compatible, sadly)
Speed Density conversion
Tial QR BOV
Punishment Racing recirc o2 housing w/Tial external wastegate
880cc inj
New UICP, I am using the OEM evo stuff right now
Dejon intake pipe
Innotech FC-1 wideband
EVO 9 brembo's
4x114.3 to 5x114.3 conversion - I just need to find some 2g ebrake assembly parts for the rear, already have evo 5 parts for the front.


Goal is to get 350 reliable hp right now... then build up my 2nd evo motor with a stroker kit.

It has a small 16g right now, which is what came with it, so I will be turning up the boost.

At the moment it's only boosting 10-12psi. I am thinking the Profec-b I have installed in it is not working at all, so I am going to be ripping that out and using the ECMlink to do the boost control.

It was my first car when I turned 17. Purchased as a write-off from a local junk yard.

It came with a 4G15 and F3A21 (pretty sure thats the 3spd auto code)

First time bringing it home, right after the frame was pulled and straightened:

I purchased a Dodge colt with a 4G93 and F5M22, which was later stripped down and gutted, I wanted to drive a 5spd pretty badly, so I swapped all the parts over. This was back in 2005. I'll see if I can find some pictures, they are on my old desktop computer.

Rear used OEM evo trailing arms.

Suspension was KYB AGX's with Goldline springs 1.75" drop and Tien Pillowmounts up top. I am still using the same suspension today.
