Question Anyone have a clue (Please don't laugh)

Here is a question that's going to make most people on this site laugh, but I'm going to ask it anyway.

I got screwed over bigtime when I was decieved, by the dealer, into believing that what I got was a legendary rally car, when all I got was the 2002 Mitsubishi lancer with it's laughable 120 bhp. My gulability aside, so far I can't find a way to make it fly like it's supposed to.

Is there any mods that I could do to make it fly. I have the performance NJEN Intake, and a Rampage exaust, but I can't find anythine else... What should I do? Should I just drop the engine all together? There is so much room in the engine compartment.

I would love any suggestions that anyone would have...

Must have been one hell of a salesperson. Sorry, but you gotta take SOME crap for that

Look around.

The parts index thread may be a good place to begin. Lotsa useful links there and whatnot.

Another place to ask around would be the US Lancer tech forums. You can pretty much take your pick as far as where you need to put whatever questions or what you want to read about.

Finally, there's a parts parts review section that should probably help too.

Hope that helps.

thats always a good one. going to the dealership drunk. man, its already hard enough to deal with those bastards(dealers) sober. going in drunk was just pure financial suicide. lucky for you the mistake wasn't so bad. afterall you did drive off the lot with a dope ride.

Not drunk, just Tipsy

Well, I wasn't exactly drunk, more tipsy, but my gulability factor was quite high. He was talking about 192 bhp, 185 bhp. There were kits, upgrades. He even convinced me that it was on The Fast and the Furious. Okay, so I was pretty out of it, but I finally got a body kit on the way that's not the pathetic one on the OZ Rally. But there is future in my Mitsu so I'm happy...

Keep checking www.buschurracing.com. It is a DSM tuning company but they purchased a US Lancer OZ for development. They already made an exaust and intake, but right now they are developing a turbo kit witch would be really nice. So you could call them and find out details of where they stand with the Lancer.
