It’s the rarity and beauty of the 1993 Mitsubishi Evolution II which originally caught Etienne Marion’s attention back in 2012. Since then, he’s made a number of modifications, including a rebuilt engine and turbo, RD Turbo Production hood exit exhaust, tune and custom wiring; STD Suspension R1 coilover kit and a drivetrain heavily supported by the Evo II GSR and Mitsubishi Galant VR-4. Further modifications will soon include a PPG Dogbox transmission, Driveshaft Shop custom one-piece driveshaft, braided stainless steel fuel lines; a Precision PT7285 turbocharger, a finished fuel set up with three additional AEM 380lph inline high flow fuel pump, and an additional fuel rail with four 2000cc injectors. Marion also plans to have his roll cage certified for 8.5 seconds.
