Devin and his shop Boostin Performance are best known for their absolute mastery of the DSM world thanks to their ‘Red Demon’ Talon Eclipse, which is currently the world’s fastest 4WD Mitsubishi, running as quick as a 6.97 @ 213mph.
This 2000hp car is capable of a 1.4 second 0-60 sprint, and is in fact the first 4WD four-cylinder to break into the sixes, anywhere in the world. Now, if you’ve been following this podcast for a while, you’re probably already aware of host Andre Simon’s passion for all things Mitsubishi 4G63, so as you might guess, this conversation between two 4G fanatics dives very deep into the Mitsubishi weeds to discuss these iconic four-cylinder engines in detail.
Time is spent talking through what’s involved in getting a 2000hp four-cylinder to run reliably and hold together pass after pass, as well as the pros and cons of billet blocks, big and small port heads, and solid-filling your block. Round that out with some discussion around turbo technology, slipper clutches, and nitrous strategy, and you’ve got plenty of tech-heavy info to dig into.
Devin also discusses how he built his business, his branching out into GT-Rs and Supras, and just how important it is to have a solid level of mechanical understanding to back up your tuning career.
It doesn’t really matter if you’re a Mitsubishi fan or not, this episode is full of interesting engine-building and tuning yarns that are well worth the listen.

Learned so much from this one. Great chat.

[@split150]

These interviews are always pure gold for car geeks, especially this one if you have any 4g63 experience. The behind the curtain information on the Red Demon in this was fantastic. Great chat.

[@MoonRammer]

I just love all of the evo/4g63/mitsubishi content from you guys. Very very helpful for me personally.

[@albertt7784]

Another great podcast! I've learnt a lot from listening to these fantastic pods. Best car podcast on the internet until proven otherwise!

[@brianbob7514]

That is one impressive car

[@aivo3091]

That was a good listening!

[@twsmotors]

Love to hear the in depth technical discussion. I do older push rod V8's, but I still pick stuff up from these types of chats!

[@dubbleA100]

Great listen while wiring my FC Rx7 chassis harness

54:41 my turbo Miata would sometimes do this when I hit the limiter while I had a ignition only cut limiter (because it sounds cool) scared the hell out of me a few times because I thought I hurt the motor but then it would go back to normal😂 I’ve since switched to a fuel cut.
