on a factory 2 button remote it has lock and unlock and when you press unlock twice for double pulse it unlocks the rest of the doors. my question is can there be way to intergrate a trunk release solenoid to a 2 button factory keyless remote

Put Mr. I's crystal ball away, it MAY be do-able by pressing the unlock a third time, lord knows how.

06 mitsubishi lancer evolution. it has the manual trunk latch but i would like to add the trunk release feature using the factory remote and an actuator.

Wasn't so hard was it! Now maybe someone can inform you if it's possible and the degree of difficulty involved! Good luck!

It wouldn't be too hard - you'll need a module that triggers on a double pulse. Hook it up to the passenger door unlock wire. When you push the unlock button the first time the drivers door will unlock, but nothing else will happen, push it a second time and the passenger door will unlock and send the first pulse to the module. On the third push, the passenger door SHOULD unlock again, thus sending a 2nd pulse to the module and triggering a 1.0 second (or so) output.

Yep, sounds pretty easy! :)
