Michigan-based Strictly Import Motorsports, famous for their black, gray, and orange tricolor Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, is now sponsored by Treadstone Performance with our capable TR1245 Intercooler. This massive intercooler features a bar-and-plate construction, is 12" tall, and a whopping 4.5" thick. That's enough to handle over 860 HP, more than plenty for this Evo's 4G63. This Evo won first place in the SCCA Street Modified and first place in the AWD Unlimited class at the Wang Fest Time Trials! Strictly Import Motorsports used a mix of high performance parts to help them achieve both reliable power and quick handling, with a 2.4L piston-and-rod stroker kit with 10.5:1 compression, ARP head studs, and a Cometic head gasket. Moving this power to the rear end is a TRE Stage 3 Transmission, and keeping the car turning well is a set of custom Feal coilovers and a complete set of Whiteline sway bars and bushings. On the outside, an ED Voltex Widebody Kit and BF Goodrich KDW2 tires on MB Battles make the AWD time-killing machine look good while it rips through the track, and a stripped-down interior with Sparco seats, steering wheel, and harnesses keep you strapped down for the ride. They also used a Tial Blow Off Valve and a TurboSmart Wastegate, two of the biggest names in the turbocharging industry when it comes to reliability and technology. Strong engineering, quality components, and a great design team make these parts not only function at the top of the line, but also look attractive while doing it.
