whats up guys I have a 04 ralliart with a intake full 2.5inch exhaust header back and am lowered on coils. I ran a 14.9 at 91 a few years ago. was wondering what other ralliarts have run with tunes stock or boosted. just thought this would be a fun discussion thread. and sorry if there is already one I didn't search before making this.

 

My RA's best time was a 15.9. Pulled a moron move and lost the time slip. I have two slips for low 16 sec passes floating around here somewhere from the shootout trip in 2014.

It is an Auto. Was not tuned at the time. Had the rear seats, and everything in the trunk removed. DIY short ram intake. Lowered on Tein S.techs. Bigger rear sway and a rear strut bar. I cant remember if the battery was relocated at that time or not. Only had a 3A racing carbon fiber axleback on the exhaust at the time. Oh and the RRM underdrive pulley.

The 15.9 had a few more mods. Injen SRI. Ceramic coated header, removed crush pipe, no cat. Battery in trunk for sure. Went wingless. And a very lightly tuned ecu. I think it couldve gone a bit faster but I havent had it to a drag strip since then.

 

that's without a tune? what kind of tires were you running? regardless if you could duplicate that consistently I would be surprised, no offence. what was your 60ft?


my best without a turbo was 15.3 at 90, and that was with tuning and an LSD. best stock was 15.8 at 87 iirc.


my best is a 13.7 at 105

 

I was on street tires 225s and yea no tune I am in Houston TX so at sea level which makes a big difference I ran a constant 15.2. and no offence taken I didn't realize it was that fast lol. ill see if I can find the ticket if not I'm going to the track in feb ill see if I can duplicate it.

 

I guess no one runs there car at the strip?

 

We do, it's just that these aren't strip cars, will lose to grandma's 6-cyl camry, so only go for giggles and to work on launch technique. Performs well on a road course though

 

Right. I have only had 3 drag strip passes ever on my RA. I have had many many more autoX runs. LOL

 

I agree completely lol they are definitely not strip cars. that doesn't mean it isn't fun lol and can talk about it. ive been trying to get out to a autox event for a while now, I'm just always busy when they are happening. but I will get out one of these days.

 

autox is a blast, I beat Evo's and GTR's the last time I autoX'd...they all had big turbos and it was a tight course, so I obviously had an advantage, despite being FWD.

 

that's awesome I have the Texas motor speedway not to far from me have been thinking of doing a track day at an actual circuit. I have always wanted to run my lancer on a circuit track think it would be a blast. ill be built with a turbo before I do though thats a big track need a little more powa!!!!

 

stock here other than rubber and broken in I ran it at the track and got a 14.9 best time. I didn't even bother with the OEM rubber (goodyear garbage). Biggest trick I found at least with the 04's was timing it just right to nab 2nd w/o the tranny balking.. but as for times.. 14.9 is excellent IMO for the yr/class etc..

 

You from Hamilton, ONTARIO?

 

I am indeed Y 4 u ask?
