FTO Turbo startup and rev2

[42RANGA]

what ur average fuel ecnomy?

[Dencof69]

Too much power for a front wheel drive car. Should of invested in a supra, rx7 or a silvia if you had the money to throw away on a turbo.

[Sasori327]

thats not a mivec is it?

[directmods]

@Sasori327 yea its a mivec I used to own it

[Sasori327]

@directmods how did you turbo it? or was it turbod after you sold it?

[directmods]

@Sasori327 yes its a mivec

[bobsmistake]

hey wat kina spoiler u got at the back mate ?

[TheMacMan35]

@bobsmistake Thats a factory FTO spoiler i believe, bud.

[thehongkongphooey]

Standard headers,both joining at the turbo with custom pipework. Turbo was a garrett gt28rs.

[ceeji0]

What is your setup? Did you use GTO TT headers or something custom.. guess you used TD04/05 turbo's..

[fpvgtking]

nice car, do u hav a pod filter? my mate bought an fto and we got a pod filter on but it stalls,, any tips?? need help

[wajalama]

Why didn't Mitsubishi sell these in the US? They look awesome! Was it something with emissions?

[Sasori327]

@wajalama i'm not sure, but they already sold the eclipse there so i think the eclipse might be alternative, wish the uk had the eclipse...

[AwAiS786M]

@Sasori327 u can get the eclipse in the uk ive seen many

[Sasori327]

@AwAiS786M really, are you sure they were eclipses, and if they were, were they the 2g ?

[AwAiS786M]

@Sasori327 yup definetly seen them. ive seen the old ones and the new ones. they are real head turners

[sesamestreetsquad]

@wajalama They did, but in limited quantities

[TsytaNZ]

where did ya get ur rear lights mate? ive been looking for a set ever since i bought my fto lol.

[waelah7578]

nice sound

[Diamob]

Too bad these never made it to the US.

[thehongkongphooey]

@Diamob

Yeah,they make a good alternative to dc2/dc5 tegs.

[MrKrypt1c]

@Diamob why don't you import ?

[Sasori327]

@Diamob yeah they sold Eclipses as an alternative, I think

[MidShipCivic]

That engine makes a good noise mate. Have any acceleration videos?

[davros7264]

it want as this car is now scrap

[MidShipCivic]

@davros7264

it want?? Is english your second language?

[davros7264]

it want have any acceleration videos as its now scrap...thought that was pretty obvious

[thehongkongphooey]

@MidShipCivic

I think he means it won't. Not sure whether he's calling me it or the car though? But no,i only did these vids to sell the car and never got around to any acceleration runs. It did a 14.2 at shakespear county raceway though.

[redmangonewild72]

savage ass car

[thehongkongphooey]

Yep,that's the one.

[janusj]

this is the one Dan in Ireland has isnt it?

[thehongkongphooey]

One Million Dollars!

[Pyrok1netic]

How much would it cost to do a stock FTO up so it's like yourS??

[skyman95946]

They need to start selling these cars again.

[cypri0t]

[garyomaany83]

[Azron21]

[C45Auto]

Is it a GPX?

[thehongkongphooey]

Yes mate.

[C45Auto]

Manual or INVECS tiptronic?

[thehongkongphooey]

Manual,not Heather Mills-o-matic.

[thegreatsilverwolf]

im moving over yonder buddy

[thehongkongphooey]

It's in Ireland now appaerently,so it's a bit closer to you :)

[diabhalo]

i have one in australia

[bholland08]

tis a nice car though, my m8s got a black fto, mivec and its as sweet as a nut, makes a nice sound coz its got a full induction kit on and modifyed air flow sensor, but comin down the revs u can really hear the tappets, but still looks nice lol

[corollafrenzy]

I dislike your honda-cans tremendously.

[thehongkongphooey]

Thanks very much for your detailed appraisal of my car.....i really appreciate your time.I guess that means you like the rest of it then? I hope so very much.

[yomchi86]

Probably just pissy cos hee drives a toyota corolla....(probably low spec one, of course im just speculating....)

[bholland08]

i'm with 1littlelee on this, is it turbo'd or not coz it jus sounds like its got an exhaust system back 2 the manifolds, if it was trbo'd wot engine did u use an wot turbo

[thehongkongphooey]

There's no fooling you is there! You're right,the gt28rs garrett in the engine bay with the 6a12 mivec and fmic you can see in the vids is not connected as i mentioned above i must've forgotten.

[kezza140884]

Man, I can't believe you forgot to connect it all! But seriously, nice car... I've just purchased a GR and hope to get her purring similarly in the future..

[1littlelee]

you sure that a turbo, sound like my stock FTO exactly like it

[thehongkongphooey]

Now you come to mention it i'm not sure....maybe the intercooler and turbo you can see in the video isn't connected? How stupid of me.

[stocis]

lol

[alfaromeo17]

Sounds like a 3000gt

[janusj]

She's a beaut mate. you still own her?

[thehongkongphooey]

No dude....i sold her a couple of months ago.Thanks

[jongwilt]
