Fourth, "WE?" own Mitsu? I doubt you have anything to do ownership in Daimler-chrysler. Please dont try to pump yourself up here.

In case you didn't notice, saying your not smart is not name calling.

And your lancer buddies have called me names but you dont' see me crying about it do you? Grow some hair on your chest dude and stop being so sensitive.

So your saying a dealer offered you a factory turbo kit huh? A turbo kit MADE by Mitsu because that is what "factory" means? And they offered a 10 year warranty on it? LMAO!!!!!!!!! This will be interesting. Who was the dealer and where?

Third I think the real issue you have isn't lancer vs. neon, it is domestic vs import. You can't possibly comprehend that the SRT-4 is a MUCH better performance buy compared to the RA just because you can't comprehend that there are domestics that are better than imports.

Most everyone would NOT agree the RA is a better buy than the SRT-4, you're out of your mind if you honestly think that. Get off your high horse, lancers own all attitude and try for some modesty. Theres a characteristic you likely know nothing about.

it's @ssholes like this THOUGH that give srt4 a bad name.

I will never buy an american car
I will never buy a dodge
I will never buy a turbo FWD car
I will never turbo a FWD car
I will never buy an american car

These are my OWN personally opinions. No dissrespect to the SRT4 or people who turbo FWD cars, I driven in some and they are stupid fast and a blast... I just wouldn't put my money into a project, I rather buy a AWD turbo car, or turbo an AWD vehicle. Yes, ill be slower than you... but I really don't care,

I rest my case. Because others go so low to name call and insult, that makes it ok for you to? I'm not being sensitive... just an adult. You should try it sometime.

The dealer was Valley Mitsu in Kelowna BC. The service manager told me about it, but thats all I know about it. Be it Mitsu made or aftermarket, I dont know nor did I care, but its dealer installed with warrenty coverage.

And the 10 year warrenty is on the whole car, including any and all dealer installed parts... and yes that included the dealer installed turbo.

I am now done with this conversation... if you can call it that. Good night.

This is the second funniest thread i've read on here in a long time...the first is the thread about the SRT-4 BOV_Soundoff phenomenom here in South FLorida....a serious affliction that i've experience myself driving aournd in my sti..hell we get it when we're hanging out at our TEMEVO meetings...but anyways i digress..I thought i would add my 2 cents worth....I've driven the SRT-4, RALLIART, EVO, 02 OZ and STI I rank them like this

1)EVO&STI-take your pick amazing cars evo handles better stock for stock and is much easier to modify....
2)OZ may be slow but hey i'm biased and I know my OZ can outhandle an SRT-4 but i have mods so thats unfair.
3 Ralliart OZ with Mivec NICE and more power...how could you go wrong
4) SRT-4....turbo yes...fast yes...good motor so i've read....but it's still a neon...sorry i can't get over that

You put a regular OZ in front of a Ralliart?! You've got to be kidding! If all cars were stock, sorry, but OZ is dead last.

I find that hard to believe. Especially if you don't even know if its Mitsu or aftermarket. Here's a clue: MITSU DOESN'T MAKE A TURBO KIT FOR YOUR CAR. Why you would even think they would offer a Mitsu kit is beyond me.

10 year warranty WITH a supposed turbo kit? I bet what you don't know is they only warranty the installation. And thats if they really offer a turbo kit in the first place.

Where are the mods, anyways? I figured the SRT4Phallic would have ended this madness by now.

They shouldn't ... especially with ES"s track record.

That's what I'm saying. Whichever side of the argument you're on, you won't change anyone's mind on the other side. Close this trainwreck of a thread.
