yeah dont go bling man, they go surprising well with just some low key mods, abit more boost, a cam etc.You can run a bigger injecter from some other mitsi (last of the starions i think) or can go multipoint injection from a magna.
Just remember they are only like 1100kg or somthing so you dont need a heap of power to go hard and can get them to handle well.The brakes are pretty sweet too.Good base for a pretty mean sleeper.
