A rare Evo-swapped Mitsubishi Eclipse and a 917-horsepower Evo IX Wagon headline this episode of American Tuned featuring two keepers of the Mitsubishi-tuning flame. TG Tuning Correspondent Rob Dahm tests out two heavily-tuned Mitsubishi legends: a home-built, Evo-swapped, AWD conversion Eclipse, and a rare, 917-horsepower Lancer Evo IX Wagon. In an era when Mitsubishi has given up on its high-performance past, these “keepers of the flame” are the only link to the company’s sport-compact heyday.
