Don't take the controversy so hard ROCK... what people don't see is that the shop Ralliart was nipping at the heals of the shop SC'd V-6 Tiburon!! The Tibby didn't really start pulling until both cars were well into 4th gear! NOW that is impressive. Also a lot of NA guys don't realize how hard it is to get torque and horsepower numbers up for under 1G $$. Those numbers are excellent for such little cost. Keep up the good work

First good news with proof that I have heard in a while! I should own my RA in about a month I move south. Makes the wait seem longer ;] I would like to see a side-by-side as others said, but even with the heat and the skeptics, you are still getting a good increase for your $

Siberia could help but don't go in June/July as the daytime high is around 88-90 degrees F. It's incredibly beautiful out in the country there, driving from Barnaul to Biisk. Amazingly dark, rich soil. Neat place.

I just realized that ROCK misposted his numbers... max hp was 161-164whp and max tq was 161wtq not 146!! ROCK you read the torque at the peak hp but peak torque occured way earlier. DUDE THAT MAKES IT EVEN BETTER!! You should change your beginning post and note that. MAJOR booboo there!! 
I'm super impressed by the long torque band though... very few cars can achieve such a thing.

Thanks Boe for pointing out my mistake. Torque at the wheels is actually 162.
Also thanks to Blk Magic for posting up the larger dyno. I put it on our site around midnight last night and then past out.
Thanks

I own a Tiburon right now, and I'm looking at the Ralliart. I need a beater. I know everything there is to know about the Tiburon and that is hard to believe. The SC'd Tibs put 200-250 whp with the Alpine SC. I don't really think 200 pounds will make that much of a difference. Either that or someone doesn't know how to drive.
