FTO AUSTRALIA

Just looking around other car forums and seen a few nice FTOs with this mod and I was wondering how far off were Mitsubishi when it comes to matching of the plenum -> intake -> head runners/ports as well as the engine -> exhaust manifold?

I was thinking that this may be a worthwhile mod if Mitsubishi did a pretty bad job on the intake and exhaust manifolds.

Is it also worthwhile to do a slight polish to remove casting dags etc.?

anybody done this before that would care to explain if they had any good improvements?

how much $$$ am i looking at doing something like this in Sydney?

The castings are as good as any mass produced cast item I spose. Mine was done before I bought the car so I cant give you any specific gains as such, but I have seen the comparison with stock items. You would get some minor gains out of it. Steve (smorrison) had his done by UAS, Im sure he would have some before & after figures.

Pull the bits off yourself & take them to a workshop - not much more than few hundred bucks I would think...

Yeah i've send my spare one to the workshop to get it done, so i probably able to find out the different once i installed them & put it on the dyno.

nice... if you can post up before and afters that would be great. how long will it take to do? what mods have you done so far as well?
