That's a VERY good article for the Lancer owners who are still curious about how to enhance power, speed, and handling.

I still say 2.5" exhaust is the way to go. Unless I see dyno results compared to a 2.25" that blow it away I don't think my opinion's gonna change.

Btw, Rob. Have you guys experimented with a 2.5" at all?

They don't have Evos to tune. RRM specializes in Subaru Imprezas (the US versions) and the US version of the Lancer.

RRE specializes in DSMs and 323's. It's generally not considered smart business sense to specialize in a car that isn't street legal in your country and therefore very few people own.

Good article, hopefully all the n00bs will look at that before posting stupid questions. only thing i wanna know is when are we gonna be able to find out about that camshaft. does anyone know if RRM is planning on testing and maybe selling a better camshaft?

Great article, but it might be useful to state that the header upgrade and/or cold-air intake might be something to avoid if you know from the start that you're going turbo, since all of that changes.

Rob,

If you were to have a US Evo VIII to upgrade, what would be the Top 10 recommended mods, in order of performance enhancement? How soon is RRM planning to release mods for the new ? Will the powderdcoating options be more wideley available for Evo VIII mods? Any CF plans in the works?
