You need 2nd gen sideskirts asap. And I hate that particular Cianci hood. Also get 99 headlights, your turn signals look retarded without them. First mods need to be a vac reduction, gutted pre cats and aftermarket Y pipe. Go from there.

You're going to spend all of your money just to keep it on the road.

Side note i`ve always thought these screamed 90s mid life crisis....with all the reliability thats to be expected from mitsubishi.
Every time i see one i think to myself "50 year old man trying to pick up 40 year old pussy"

+1 on the engine rebuild. You don't want to up the boost on it while the motor's got 130k miles on it, just be safe and rebuild it. Cheaper in the long run

Does it run good, any odd noises coming from the engine, oil leaks, coolant leaks.... If all that checks out good why would you pull a good engine to rebuild it. Do a whole flush of old fluids and gaskets that need repair and start the build off of that.

First hit up 3si.org and 3sgto.org/ and READ. A LOT!

Second...read some more. Ask questions.

Dont do a shit ton of random mods. Set a power goal, if thats what you want, and see what it takes to get there. Then read more. VR4s are insanely finicky so be patient.

Oh, and keep a stash of cash laying around because as Reloaded said its going to take a lot to keep it on the road. And become best friends with a tow truck driver...
