It was the sad truth for 4g94 lancers and apparently is too for us 4g69 lancers as well. Like Raikiri said, to anyone who wants serious speed and power gains, turbo from the start and don't spend money on anything Na if you're just gonna end up turboing later. You'll save money in the long run and won't regret your purchase. Im sad to hear this coming from you Raikiri, but at least you have helped by informing others.
I agree man...The only thing I regret is not going turbo in the first place....I DEFINITELY would have saved a ****load more money. I am only running 7.37 lbs of boost with this kit on my car and I am pushing 242hp and 240 tq. Most of my friends Evos are pushing 20 lbs of boost.....if i could take it all back i would just spend the money on fixing up the engine, then turbo then fix up the turbo.....our engine is bigger and our car is lighter....Ralliart forever B1tCh3Z

Bassnuker....no rrm turbo , or turbo at all.

Rakirki ..... I guess it's just an auto thing.. And you can practice on brake launching, and you still have 2 gears to master.

hmm i remember reading up on a company that strengthens out tranny? im pretty sure you know what im talking about, but i wonder how much more boost it could hold...

on a side note, im not sure how much the older evos are worth now, but how much more do you think i would have to spend trading in my RA for a comparable evo 8/9?

most evos on avg. run about 16-19k and you'll probably get i'd say... 5-6k if you're lucky on your ra
