A2 turbo kit

Has any body researched the new offering from A2? They are advertising a 16G Turbo kit for the Ralliart.

^^^ Yea I noticed that also, makes you wonder where he got the rest at. What is up with getting the turbo from japan, that is kinda wierd also . Not worth it in my opinion. Iether go with RRM or RPWs kits, so far no other source has a COMPLETE KIT. With them you know if you got any problems then they can help and they have cars runing with there kits on them. Chowtime on here has the RPW and there are many that have the RRM one. I WONT go any other way unless I build one myself.

Sample Photos

I think those photos are sample views. That is not a ralliart valve cover. I think my judgement will wait until after the rollout date listed as Nov 23.

If you buy that you'd be better off piecing together a kit yourself. You can buy the manifold from RPW now, and you can route the intake tubing yourself, and either weld it or have it welded.

assuming you got this kit though. what do you figure the cost would be after getting a managment system and tuning it? after all it is seemingly way cheaper then what RRM or RPW is offering

It is not a complete kit so you are a long way from being up and running fast or for what you buy initially. Call A2 and ask them what it will cost you get you up and running and tuned as well as all of your piping ceramic coated. I am sure they have plenty of these RA turbos running so they should be able to give you exact info over the phone. IF not then maybe they are expecting you to figure it out for them. Just giving you what you need to insure successful boosting!

But the RRM or RPW kits already have the fuel management system, and it's tuned. That's a lot of money and time invested right there.

That header looking thing wouldn't fit our cars. No dyno sheets!? Because we have to buy our own fuel management device, take it to the dyno and tune it ourselves!!....that blows. I guess it's just a box of parts rather than a kit.

1-207-651-4115. On the main page. The thing I don't like about A2 thus far is that they have quite a few bogus claims on their page, just read their description for the 4G69 underdrive pulley.

I agree with you on that, what is "will fit all 02+ Lancer 2.4 non-evo engine". No picture on their cold air intake. I still don't see the phone number on the main site, the number you posted is a cell phone number from ME. Something fishy here.

Nothing about it seems right. Accolade seems to suddenly be giving them support. which as otter said, is really wierd since they support and sell RPW?!?!?

02+ lancer 2.4 non evo. that sounds like something autozone would say to me when i try getting a part.
almost as good as when they tell you your car doesn't exist at all.

AMEN. People are finally seeing what they need to see. ACCOLADE,RPW, A2 are all the same teamed up against us. Read for yourself and think about what I said. You certainly can decide for yourself!
