well i got a stock 2004 Ralliart, i havent done anything to it, and i cant tell if the guy who sold it to the dealer last time did anything, cause frankly im new to this. it is a automatic transmission, with something like 14700 miles on it.

Im looking for a way to increase my HP to around 230-260 and get a lil bounce off the line, cause heres the deal, right now i serve as an army recruiter... and to get the kids attention you need something better then stock and something way better then my Govt. issue stratus. I had a truck previously, but cause of gas issues i had to get rid of it (also starting a family... please save me)

so like i said, im looking at a way i can mod it out to get around 230-260 HP and bounce off the line, and try to keep my gas mileage about the same. and hopefuly not go broke trying to mod it. If yall have ANY ideas or ways to help me with this, it would be truly helpful and i would be extremely greatful.

Thanks everyone... ill try to get a picture under the hood of my car and post it to see if yall notice anything different in there that might not be stock.

Thanks in Advance

 

Your best option would be to turbocharge it. There's really no other way to get that kind of power without hitting the bottle. Nice thing about a turbo is you can retain stock gas mileage if you manage to stay off the boost.

www.roadracemotorsports.com makes a turbo kit for auto Ralliarts. Give them a call. Will run you a bit over $4,000. Go with that for power, some lowering springs and wheels for looks and you should be set.

 

RRM turbo kit and jack up the boost. You'll be spending some big money though, plus tuning it so it doesnt blow up.

 

He won't need to jack up the boost. RRM's kit makes around 250hp at their stock boost level and tune, no need to tune it yourself.

 

not neccassiarly looking for turbo.. dont have the cash to put that much money in it, i was just thinking of other things then that, like intakes, pulleys that type of thing... cause i know that if i got a turbo.. id prolly end up killing myself

 

A more realistic goal, then, would be around 180-200 hp, which would still take a fair amount of work/money, but not as much as turbo. Check that site above, though, it's a good starting point.

 

what would i need for that list of parts perhaps? so i can check costs i would say in about a year i can afford the turbo kit, when i come back from Iraq should be no problem.. lol

 

Underdrive Pulley
Short Ram Intake
Piggyback ECU
Exhaust
and NITROUS PURGE(Must have)

 

You might want to hold that thought, MigueRalliart is planning to do 250whp without NOS N/A. I know it seems far fetch, but hes currently in the making and so far its looking good, and this should be history in the making!

 

just get intake pulley and exhaust thats what kids will see/hear. then throw on a hood spoiler and rims and they'll think you're the man!!

 

The ralli art cars can look very nice with some rims and a spoiler.

 

That's in no way practical or cheaper than turbo unless you're able to do nearly all your own work.

 

^and since hes in the army i bet he has no time to do some custom work like that. if i was you i would wait until you get back from iraq and then go with the rrm turbo kit.

 

Like Otter said.....power like that would have to come from a turbo kit or some other form of F/I. Give Rock a call at RRM (562-906-0080)....he will talk to you about all of your options. Look through their website too for much of what is available for the Ralliart.

If you don't go turbo, you will potentially spend just as much trying to get to 200hp (without Nitrous).

 

WHAT!!! How? I wanna know more.
