Koyorad is proud to introduce a cooling solution for 2003-2007 Mitsubishi Evolution race vehicles with upgraded front facing turbo systems. For off-road use only, this half length radiator is intended for sprints, small track, and gymkhana type courses. It features an all new, ultra high density 48mm “Hyper” performance core. The reduced length allows for an off-center mounting position, which keeps radiant manifold heat away from its core. Like every Koyorad All Aluminum Performance Radiator, the OEM electric fan will bolt up directly without modifications. Unique sliding fan mounts allow for an easier installation of aftermarket universal slim fans, freeing up additional engine bay room and reducing weight. Koyorad integrates a 1/8” NPT female accessory fitting (supplied with a threaded plug) to accept temperature sensors typically supplied with most aftermarket temperature gauges. This radiator will fit global market Evolutions: IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, and IX.
Features:
• Koyo “Hyper” Series 48mm Core Technology
• Reduced size and weight
• Exclusive brushed aluminum finish
• Nocolok-R Brazing
• Precise Tube and Fin alignment
• Billet aluminum filler neck
• 1/8” NPT Accessory Fitting and threaded plug
• Billet aluminum drain plug
This weekend Titan Motorsports participated in the ADRL LenMar World Finals as well as the 2010 Battle for the Belts in Dallas Texas. We pick up the action with the Battle for the Belts’ first round of action. In the first round, Gary White and the Titan Motorsports Scion had a bye run, since the Team finished first in points for the year. Although Gary didn’t race an opponent, he was still racing this round to qualify for the LenMar World Finals. In round 1 he ran a 3.954 at 187.76mph. This run just barely beat out Todd Moyer’s first run winning time of 3.955, giving White the lane choice against him in round 2. In round 2 Gary cut a great reaction time and was able to just squeeze out Moyer with a 3.957 against Todd’s 3.990. In the third and final round it was Gary White vs. Dan Millen. Gary got a good jump, but Dan had the lead by halftrack, and took the win. Congratulations to Dan Millen and his team on the win!
Besides the Battle for the Belts, there was another race going on in ADRL this weekend, the LenMar World Finals. In round 1 of qualifying, Gary and the Scion ran against Dan Millen. White had problems early and had to back off of the throttle. Millen ran a very quick 3.853 at 200.11mph to take the win. In round 2 Team Titan raced against Steven Benoit. This time the Scion was running strong, laying down a 3.995 at 186.69 vs. Benoit’s 4.774. The third round was the first round of the Battle of the Belts, where Team Titan ran a 3.954 to bump the Scion to the #3 qualifying position.
Unfortunately, the rain moved in and the race was canceled (no surprise here). So once again there will be more ADRL races to be made up. This one however will be finished with the season opener next March.
Stay tuned to our Blog for all the lastest off-season news and updates on the XTF Scion.
Here is the EVO X as it rolled into the shop. The car looks good in stock form, but there is always room for improvement.
For this visit, the customer choose to install a carbon APR wing and carbon canards, a set of Tein S-Tech springs, as well as some new shoes, shod in BFG rubber.
The X on the lift with wheels and tires installed.
The gold wheels and carbon canards really set off the white.
Here is a shot of the APR wing.
The car is ready to roll.
With a few bolt-ons already installed, this EVO will be back soon for a few more goodies, including a new hood, front lip, and rear diffuser. Stay tuned.
Last weekend a few of the Titan Crew made the trip down to Ft Lauderdale to participate in the final leg of the East coast Scion tCruise tour. We brought our XTF Scion down to show our support for Scion and the fans.
Here is a shot of the race car and rig. Throughout the weekend we welcomed guests and gave tours of the trailer, where we work on the race cars throughout the year.
The tC’s look especially good in white.
This was interesting. This Scion owner had a “chalkable” hood. Could his Scion be asking for a heart transplant?
Some clean xB’s
Nice looking 2009 RS 6.0 complete with TRD and Junction Produce goodies.
Some of the creativity that makes a Scion owner a Scion owner.
Here was another cool xB, this one sporting the “Woody” theme.
Big thanks to all the Scion owners for coming out and making for a great event. Huge thanks to the people at Scion and SET for making this all possible.
For this, we chose to go with the KW Clubsport coilovers. KW Clubsports were developed for those who demand a better handling car when participating in track day events, but also require a setup that can be used every day.
The KW Clubsports are height adjustable and feature independent compression and rebound settings.
By using the optional adjustable top mounts, the suspension geometry can be adjusted to the requirements of tires and the intended use.

HRE recently introduced its 18″ Forged R40 Motorsport wheel to the public, and we wanted to make sure we were the first to get a set. HRE unleashes a direct descendant of the wheel that won the 2010 Grand-Am GS Championship, now lighter, stronger and better ever and ready for competition. What better car to show off this great new wheel than Nero’s personal E92 M3 street car, which sees the race track from time to time for Drivers Education events.
HRE Performance Wheels has unveiled a NEW forged one-piece motorsport wheel for 2011, the R40 Monoblok™ for dedicated track and the highest performance street cars. This mesh-style, 6061-T6 aerospace grade aluminum wheel is a direct descendant of the custom-built model used by Fall-Line Motorsports to WIN the 2010 Grand-Am GS Championship in BMW M3 race cars, but now it’s available in a brand new mesh style for a wide range of applications and lighter than ever (17.5 lbs and up).
HRE R40 wheels are precision engineered to stringent German TÜV specifications in HRE’s TÜV-approved manufacturing facility for ultra light weight, high strength and unsurpassed quality. Available finishes include Satin Black, Satin Silver, Brushed with Clearcoat and more. The R40 is available in 18” diameter and widths ranging from 8.5” – 12” in Multi-lug and Center Lock versions. HRE engineers know the race can be won in the pits, so be sure to note the rattle-gun friendly open dish shape for fast wheel changes!
All HRE wheels are engineered to minimize unsprung mass and rotational inertia for optimal acceleration, handling and braking performance. Each wheel is built-to-order at HRE’s 60,000 square foot manufacturing facility for the ultimate performance solution and custom-tailored wheel buying experience. We carry the entire line of HRE Performance wheels here at Titan Motorsports, both for street and track. Call us today for the best pricing and fitment options for your vehicle.
This weekend marked the 5th annual Festivals of Speed in Orlando at the Ritz-Carlton Resort. The event consists of some of the finest vintage and contemporary automobiles, motorcycles, and boats from around the country.
The show had everything from luxurious Bentlys…
..to 50’s classics.
There was also quite a collection of Lamborghini offerings, including the new Titan Motorsports Street Gallardo sporting twin turbos and 750hp on pump gas.
But the show wasn’t only for the super rich. Here is a tastefully done M3 that really stood out in Atlantis Blue.

Join Titan Motorsports in Miami for FOS on November 14th. We’ll see ya there!
Check out our new project Mustang. We are planning on doing some minor modifications (to start) which include bigger brakes, sway bar, coilovers, exhaust, and wheel/tires package. Here is a few shots of the brake install.
For this we choose to go with Stoptech brakes. We use Stoptech for many of our project and customer cars, and they have provided great quality and performance.
The first thing we noticed is that the stock wheels would not clear the larger brakes. To fix this issue, we installed 5mm spacers, which helped the wheels clear the calipers.
Once the brakes were installed, we opted to use a BMR rear sway bar relocation kit to allow us to run 15” rims with drag radials. This kit flips the sway bar to the front for clearance. The factory sway still didn’t fit even with this, so we ended up using a smaller BMR sway bar for the additional clearance we needed.
Wheels, tires, and suspension coming soon, stay tuned.
This past weekend was the 4th annual ADRL Summit Racing Equipment Ohio Drags, which also held host to the canceled ADRL Simpson Dragstock VII, in Norwalk Ohio. After rain had delayed the Simpson Dragstock, the race was continued in Ohio. We pick up the action in Ohio.
Coming off of a #3 qualifier (3.92 @ 185.69mph) at the Dragstock VII, The Titan Scion was finally ready for Friday’s elimination runs. The first round drew L.J. Wood Jr. Wood had a great light and led until about the 330 foot mark, where Gary proceeded to run him down to win by over a car length. In the second round Team Titan was set to run against long time rival Billy Glidden. Gary and Billy have been battling back and forth for the better part of 2 years now and it is always “anyone’s race” when these two line up. White had a great light, but Glidden was on a role, and posted his second 3 second pass in a row to take the win against Gary’s 4.098.
After Friday’s make up race, Saturday began the Ohio Drags eliminations. The competition has really been stepping up this weekend and even qualifying was the quickest in XTF history. The Titan Scion was able to qualify #5 with a 4.098 @ 184.67mph. In the first rounds of eliminations Titan was up against sandy Wilkins. Wilkins left the line first, but Gary quickly made the ground up to grab the win. Between rounds, Titan opted for a quick motor change to try and swing the tide. In round 2 Gary and Team Titan would once again be up against Billy Glidden. Glidden, riding the “3-second train” blasted out another 3.99 to edge out Gary’s 4.09. Chuck Ulsch would later win the event.
Next on the ADRL race schedule will be the LenMar Motorsports ADRL World Finals, at Texas Motorplex, in Ennis texas. We’ll see you at the races!
