Hello, 6 months ago I bought my 2010 Ralliart. Like almost any RA owner on these forums, I plan to make it faster than a stock Evo X. Hoping for EVENTUALLY at least 350 or so whp. My one concern is that they don't make a bolt on Turbo upgrade for our cars anymore, and finding one out there is virtually impossible.. am I missing something, is there a bolt on upgrade or am I going to have to buy an entire kit? I am prepared for all of you to say "do the EVOx Turbo swap".

 

There are still bolt-on turbos for the X which means they would also work on the RA. FP has the 18k, Blouch has the 1.0xt(r) and 2.0xt(r), and i'm sure there are others I can't remember as of this moment. Just keep in mind that the SST isn't the strongest gearbox. Honestly if you're looking for 350whp just get a stock X turbo. They're cheap and are a dime a dozen.

 

That's true but I know there was a BBX Ralliart bolt on. Meaning it was only Buying a Turbo as it fit with the Ralliart setup. The turbo itself costed maybe $1100, which was nice. Now talking a whole swap we are looking at $3000. Should have bought an Evo huh? 😂

 

Evo x turbo should get your goals.

 

So far I have nothing done.
Order of upgrades:
3.5" FMIC
3" LICP
3" UICP (will it fit my turbo? If so how does it also fit X Turbo? I'm a noob.)
Cold air intake?
Solenoid 3port
800cc injectors
Turbo upgrade?

Please do tell me if I'm completely wrong. Whatever way you can all advice is good to me!

 

3" intercooler pipes are pretty big. You sure you don't have 2.5" ones?

 

An upgraded bolt on RA turbo is still available from a well known RA community member. You can get it in a couple different options if you still want to stay RA turbo.

 

turbo parts canada still make upgraded RA single scroll turbos

 

Blouch does the CBRD conversions now I believe

DAN123AC is the dude to talk to about that.
He runs a business selling parts.

These guys will do an upgraded Ralliart turbo as well I believe:

I currently have everything stock. Are you saying I won't need 3" pipes for my intercooler? 2.5-2.75 would work fine for air flow if I'm sitting 350-400whp?

 

Yes, even the 800whp+ guys don't use 3" intercooler pipes. It's not an exhaust.

 

I'd like to personally thank you a million times over as I was previously told I need 3" UICP and LICP to get the full benefit of air flow. It has made my life hell even trying to find that sh*t.

 

Just use a standard 2.5"

Heck, I used oem evo x pipes on my 400whp ralliart.
