This particular model is the handy work of Alex Dunn, this a car that has been modified with a certain amount a care and consideration to the design of the actual car, meaning that from the normal person in street point of view it is possible to see what the car is without being told.

However just because this Lancer is clearly what it is, that does not mean that it has no guts for a lot of the modifications cannot be seen from outside. There are plenty of changes that allow this car to produce around 360 HP.

The Lancer Evo IX was built over a span of two years, its standard 2.0 litre engine with either the five speed or six speed manual gearbox, would have produced around 280 HP, so clearly this featured has been modified enough to increase substantially increase the power, without spoiling the looks.

Cosworth CNC Ported Big Valve Cylinder Heads Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX

Product Description for the Cosworth CNC Ported Big Valve Cylinder Head:

(4G63- MIVEC) Built for the (06) Mitsubishi EVO… For over 40 years, Cosworth has been the leader in innovative multi valve cylinder head design. Their latest advancement is the Cosworth CNC Ported Big Valve Cylinder head range. Modified from OE cylinder head castings, substantial gas flow improvements and upgraded valve train components offer superior performance for your high performance engine. Each original cylinder head design is carefully evaluated and tested to establish the improvements required to meet the target performance level. Hours of testing and flow bench validation are used to determine the best advanced port design yielding maximum usable power and response. However, there is more to cylinder design than just maximum flow. It is critical that port velocity is maintained to ensure drivability and valve train components are matched to guarantee reliable performance. Once all of these factors have been tested and validated, the final port contour is digitized. Using the digitized program, we then reshape both intake and exhaust ports using a 5 axis CNC mill producing and accurate and consistent port shape every time. In addition to re-shaping and enlarging the intake and exhaust ports, most Big Valve Cylinder heads feature a re-shaped combustion chamber to un-shroud the valves increasing air flow and performance. After machining, each cylinder head is ultrasonically cleaned, serialized and then hand assembled with select high performance valve train components, ready to install on you engine. Features include: Enlarged Intake and Exhaust ports Large diameter stainless steel intake valves Large diameter Inconel exhaust valves Hi Rev valve springs Titanium Retainers Hardened Steel spring platforms Reshaped combustion chamber on most applications Flow bench proven design Dyno tested Machined Cosworth Logo Multi angle valve job Pre-assembled, ready to install

This is a brilliant car just to look at in an image, its lines and just the way it stands is enough to make any go weak at the knees. The deep black paintwork has the slightest hint of a red as do the tyres on the black wheels. In fact the bodywork give this car an air of mystery, we know that it has power under the hood, but how much?

According to the specs there has been plenty of work done on the car, in fact this car or rather the owner is currently looking for sponsorship. So if there is anyone or any firm out there that would like to see their company or product name on this car then why not get in touch with the owner Mike Gross.

The Evolution lends itself to being built into something special, it could be a standard family car otherwise, but you simply cannot image this car once being a taxi or a family run around. A car like this has to prove itself all of the time, of course there are those that ridicule the Evolution for reasons best known to themselves, what fools they must be.

OBX Red Overdrive Power Pulley Kit 03-05 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII 4G63

Product Features

Super Lightweight T-6061 T-6 Aircraft Grade Billet Aluminium

Computer CNC Machined For Precision Balance

Increased Horsepower And Torque Across Entire RPM Range

Dyno-tested And Proven On Race Track

High Quality Polished & Anodized Finishes

Product Description

Designed to replace OEM accessory pulleys, OBX Overdrive Power Pulley Kits are designed to be lighter than the stock pulleys. By reducing the rotational mass, the engine uses less power to power accessories such as the alternator and power steering pump, which translates into more available horsepower and torque. This well-known and highly utilized process is known as reducing parasitic drag from power-robbing accessories.

Depending on application, some of our pulleys have a larger diameter than stock. By utilizing the process of over-driving, the accessory is utilized more efficiently by doing more work on a single spin of the pulley.

OBX Overdrive Power Pulley Kits are a great upgrade for any driver to realize the full potential of his or her prized vehicle.
