Just bought 2002 Mirage
Hello guys i just registered here because today i bought 2002 Mirage De coupe.

Welcome to the site! I usually run about 350-400 depending on how I drive. And that's on a turbo charged 4g15 running 9 pounds of boost and a driver with a heavy foot.
Do you have the 5spd or auto tranny? the 5g coupe is an awesome autoX car with a little suspension work and a few power mods.

Something like that. Really all depends on how you drive it. I can get as few as 28mpg when I'm really getting on it. But the last time I went out to see my little sister at school in Indy, I averaged 38.4mpg on the highway doing anywhere between 55-65mph. So ya, they're pretty economical little cars. Only bad thing is that I have to put the premium fuel in, so I get raped every time I go fill up.

yea man,
sounds like an auto tranny trademark to me.
ive owned both auto and manual in the 4g93 and no have 2000 de coupe 1.5 (gas saver!)
so anyways this is off the subject...how do i get ahold of a turbo for my 4g15?
anyone want to sell a turo kit, not an entire car because ive got the works going on, coupe, hid's, halo one peice headlights, 17's, tein adjustable coilovers, strut braces, yadda yadda, need a turbo safe for my car, maybe between 8 and 13 lbs of boost????
lil evo you seem pretty knowledgable in all things mitsubishi...any pointers???
turbo kit, cost, hp to the wheels, so forth??
