Vilner Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X

February 25, 2011 | CATEGORIES: Mitsubishi

The tuning firm Vilner has modified several American and European cars, but have now turned to the Japanese model Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X. With this unique project, the Bulgarian tuners partnered up with the guys from Overdrive, who took on the performance package. The exterior and interior custom parts were handled by Vilner, who upgraded the standard Lancer’s headlights and taillights with new LED units. Inside, the tuning studio gave the Lancer EVO X a black leather upholstery makeover with white stitching and accents throughout. Alcantara lines the roof, while carbon fiber trim is found on the shifter and steering wheel. A set of OMP front bucket seats and piano black trim round out the mods inside. See the videos for yourself after the jump.

Hopefully this will not be a new trend on the dyno block, but now we have a video of a Mitsubishi EVO falling off the dyno because the guys didn’t strap up the front. Two straps at the front is all that would have been needed to keep this from happening, and there seemed to be at least 10 people watching who were clueless. C’mon man! This better not be a customers car or else the company could go out of business for mistakes like this. Last week we had a video of some tuning company blowing the engine on a tuned Ford Mustang. Fortunately, no one was hurt in either of these accidents, but now its the cars that have to suffer from these idiots mishaps. Now, let’s just hope these guys have some good insurance for crashing the cars.

Internals were replaced with Spec JE pistons, Kelford cams, Manley I-Beam rods, upgraded valve springs, and new head studs. A new intercooler system was installed along with a 800 hp fuel system. Aerodynamics were improved with some carbon fiber aftermarket parts, and the AMS Evo X 900X also has an upgraded braking system and suspension. Check out the video after the jump.

Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X

Here is some interesting tuning performed on a Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X, where the owner turned this four door sedan into a two door coupe. The car is currently on eBay because the owner “doesn’t want to finish it” anymore. I wonder why? Maybe because it looks hideous? One of the best things about these cars is the fact that they have four doors, over 300 horsepower, and all wheel drive. Besides the unique EVO tuning performed here, this Mitsubishi Lancer features a wide body kit, deep dish alloy rims, coilover suspension kit, and an upgraded turbo package. Possibly, this tuners nightmare could be fixed with a wing, because whoever drew the sketches made it look a lot better.

Proton WIRA 2006 Tuning

Even though this car is a bit old, this Proton has a lot of secrets that will impress everyone. It has a front bumper taken from a Mitsubishi Evo III, side skirts from Evo II and a rear wing from the ’95 Lancer. The exterior won’t be as impressive as a new supercar but this car’s interior is awesome. With new gauges, new steering wheel and sport pedals everyone will feel like a race driver in this car. But the best part just starts: In car Entertainment made from a lot of components like: Alpine DVA-9860E DVD head unit, a universal remote controller Alpine RUE-4191 DVD and an 8″ LCD. Everywhere in the car you can see Boston Acoustics S60 speakers and the owner also installed 2 amps: one from Oxygen Audio with 800W and one from Phoenix Gold with 200W. [click to continue…]
