If you had 5k to spend on your lancer....

Save it and get an evo 9 or evo x

 

lowered, RRM intake, RRM grille, custom catback, and maybe some wheels.

 

To be honest it all depends what u want do. I mean are u going to go to tracks, are u going to 2 wheel drive rally. If this car is your only car for transportation I would go for increasing MPG.

 

injen ses cat-back exhaust - $850
eibach pro-kit lowering springs - $210 (or i would wait til decent coilovers are released cuz i don't really trust cheap megan..)
k&n sri - $310
decent rims & tires - about $1500
racing seat - $1000
rrm header - $400
shift knob, parking brake grip, fuel door - $440
........
damn! 5k is a lot of money...

 

5k towards my car.....payments is what i would use it, so i could just have that extra cash to be modding it. im workin on cosmetics now, but this summer.... the mods will come and .... bye bye hondas

 

Might sound stupid, but I'd totally spend it on getting my car a real paint job ... none of this crappy paint from Mitsubishi

 

16x7 Bronze Rota Slipstreams (to match my Focus ST) = $620
Yokohama YK520 = $430
Tanabe NF210s = $200
RRM Suspension Bar Package = $458
RRM Piggy Back = $429
RRM Carbon Fiber Engine Package = $327

Total = $2464

I can't see myself spending $5000 on my wife's daily driver. This would make the car just a bit nicer.

 

so u dont want to spoil your woman? lol jk

 

not too much....JAJAJA

she still wants the car to be considered a "mommy" car.

 

if i had 5k to spend
id go back to the dealer trade in my car put 5k down on a ralliart or evo
