Well, after a LOT of internal debate with myself I have decided to move on to another platform. The evo is a VERY fun car but for what I use the car for now it just isn't the right car for me.

I am selling to first get a solid DD car, I drive 70 miles at least a day and my beater isn't cutting it anymore. I don't want to put that many miles on the evo either so I end up driving the POS honda I have.

I am planning to move to a Corvette z06, fits my driving style more and the evo for myself is now only a nice day car and doesn't see winter so AWD seems less important. That being said the new tune from BakaUnchi is amazing and very DD'able so if you wanted to this could easily be an everyday car.

I am the original owner, bought it brand new in sept 2008 and I own it outright without any liens or anything, so easy transaction. I prefer to deal locally but please PM me or email me at david dot murlowski at gmail dot com.

The car is currently running better than it ever has as I have spent many hours logging and tuning with BakaUnchi (Jon from hbspeed) over the past few months and the car rips right now. The car is currently running about 25psi and makes around 550whp/400wtq. When I ran it up to 30psi it made over 600whp/450wtq but as I am selling it I just want a nice solid daily tune on the car.

Please reference this build thread if you want some more details on the car or just ask. It is a LONG *** thread as its been doing on for a few years and has two motor builds in it, but its all there.

So now on to the Modlist...just an FYI I bought the car for about 35k out the door, it currently has at least $20,000 in aftermarket parts, probably closer to $30,000. I have spent probably $70,000 on the car over the years.

The car has a partial tune on 93 octane which hit about 500whp at 24-25psi, but would need more tuning for sure to make it work.



On E85 which is mainly what this car has seen except when tuning for 93, here is the latest graph:




I am working with BakaUnchi to straighten it out a bit more on the top end but nothing crazy for e85. Right now it is running great.


Here are some pics:

Updated with pictures with username and date.

 

Somebody please buy this car and treat it with the TLC that Dave has given it. If I could find a way to sell my 2011 GSR, I would buy this car in a heartbeat. Murlo is legendary here in Minnesota as well as the forums and this car needs a good home..

 

Bump it up! I have several heat shields installed I forgot to mention and will include a few stock parts.

 

Title in hand, waiting for a buyer.

Had a few offers but none for the asking price yet.

 

Still for sale, bump!

OBO guys, shoot me a reasonable offer!

 

Gorgeous well setup X

I cant believe im considering selling my built 8 to buy a X but yet here I am looking at X's for sale...

 

nice looking car and seems well built. i was going to comment on the price until i saw the mod list. hopefully you find it a nice home. you will not be dissappointed with the z06 esp with minor mods and aero. great car.

just a bit of advice, so i know it will be asked. you pics say 34k miles, but you didnt mention anything about mileage on parts, motor, suspension etc. doubt theres 34k miles on the motor, might help you with the sale.

either way bump for you and glws brother

 

Good call, the shell has 34k miles, its tough to say about a lot of the parts because its been different stages.

The motor is about 6k miles now, suspension is this year, brakes this year, new tires this year etc etc.

Ask if you have specifics

 

Ill be jelly of the next owner hehe. GLWS murlo

 

Bump!

$31k, lowering the price.

 

I would be all over this if I didn't have to sell my '11 GSR first. Has every mod I want and at a fraction of the price.
Bump for a good guy and what you've contributed to the community!

Thank you sir

Just an update for anyone considering buying the car.

I am in the process of totally redoing my fuel pump setup in an effort to fix a pickup problem.

I will then actually be raising the price back to $32k as I dropped it so the new owner would fix the issue. Well I don't want to sell a car with an issue and its a tough sell so I will fix it soon and post up.

 

Your under selling it, 32k? Your giving it away

 

Free bump for you sir!
