Oh, just noticed then Luie had a hand in this.
Haven't seen that name for a while.

Great work.
People should start swapping their V6 MIVECs for these SOHC 4 bangers the way you're going

Don't forget also, this is a lighter platform car.
I'd like to see what a 6a12M Mirage could do on the 1/4 also.
Sure, it'd bump the weight up a bit, but would be interesting.

With the same mods I'd expect the times to be pretty similar.
Though I think the 2.4L would be cheaper to extract more power from considering it only has 1 camshaft and also has an additional 400cc

Why is a big cone stuck on the end of a pipe called a Velocity Stack? lol.
But pretty impressive to get a 13 sec pass, you must be good at launches etc.

The problem that a lot of FTO owners will see with doing a 4G69 conversion is that even if it turns out faster than a 6A12 it will still be considered as a downgrade.
A smooth DOHC V6 with variable valve timing and lift that revs past 8,000 rpm while sounding as good as a Ferrari is a hard thing to pass up.
Though with the CE range I think this is a perfect swap. If I was doing a conversion to either a Mirage or Lancer and wanted to stay NA then 100% I would opt for the 4G69

Great effort there.
Did the suspension mods drop your 60ft time by much?

That's awesome.
Love the effort, and the car looks tops.
Well done on a fantastic result, and winning round 5.
I take it there are now more mods in the words to shift up the chart a bit more?
