He got that on a GSR with no mods other than the chip. They doubled those numbers with nothing more than a manual boost controller to hold the boost. I doubt the RA will see those kinds of gains due to turbo and intercooler differences but if it does...WOW.

Actually the salesman scared me when he drove it off the lot. First thing he did was say 'hey have you seen s-sport? it redlines every gear' then mashes it wot down the street.

I was like... def not buying that one..

Does anyone know about when could we expect the car to show up for a build and price at the Mitsu website?

I just do not really see anything special about a $30,000 car with these numbers (Ralliart) I think that for once a car should include all the goodies for a flat rate. This isn't selfish considering many used to. If this car had a price tag of say $27,000 new and came with HID's AND Recaros then I would be all over it. However it does not offer that.

2008 EVO X GSR MSRP: $31883 (basic model, however still includes the recaros and xenons because it's an EVO)

2009 Ralliart w/ Recaros/HID's is just a hair below $30,000

Actually base evo doest NOT come with HID's
