    GT Wish List

    Cobrajet brought up an interesting point in the 2017 thread, that in order to put in a bigger engine it would change weight distribution. Brakes, chassis & suspension would need improving.

    But Mitsubishi said they improved the brakes by making them bigger. They also claimed improvements to the springs & dampers. Why, we're practically halfway there.

    So what else would be needed to put in a larger motor? Can anyone measure out the size of an Evo motor to compare to the Mirage engine bay? Would this really take some heavy fabricating?

    I know I'm not the first to think of this. I saw some pic of a Mirage here with its front-end dismantled.

    What else would you include? What size motor? AWD?

    Dream big.
