I have an 08 Lancer ES and was wondering what a engine swap with the 09 Ralliart would intel. What would I need to change to make it work right?

 

Pretty much everything from the firewall forward. It would be cheaper, and significantly easier, to trade your car in on a new RA

 

If you are looking for more power, just check out Road Race Motorsports Lancer turbo kit. Or trade for a Ralliart.

Probably trade it in for the Ralliart is the best route to go.

 

Trade. There are so many parts on the RA that have to be swapped out anyway, why bother.

 

everyone's usually going to say what's already been said, it'd probably be cheaper and easier to just trade into a ralliart, but if you really love your car and can't seem to part with it, your best bet is to find a wrecked ra or evo x in a junkyard and buy the whole front clip so you can swap as necessary. make sure you get the pcm and harness along with the engine components. you're going to have some fun with the computer freaking out trying to get awd to work on a fwd car too, you may be better off going with an aftermarket ecu like aem ems if you go the conversion route
