Um, people are actually talking about the turbo-kits.com one a couple threads down from this one. Yes, iyt will fit with some MINOR modifications. This kit is actually for a Mirage, but since we pretty much have the same engine as a mirage it fits pretty smoothly, only problem is , is that our head sits a little higher than the mirage so the DP doesnt go all the way back to connect to the 2nd cat. Someone said you can just slap a few gaskets in and it wont leak, but im skeptical of that.

I would wait just a little longer before you make a big investment like this one, only because you dont want to spend 2K and then find out you need to spend another 500$ or something to custom fit it or something random like that.

im not sure of how hard the install it since i've never done one before, but from what people have said about the RRM one is that it is pretty easy if you know what your doing, or atleast some what, also RRM is really helpful and there always willing to help if you give them a call im sure.

also please remember the lancer internals are no good for much more than 5-7 psi without serious fuel system upgrades. after that 9 psi is max.

if you want 15-18 psi you are gonna need new internals for you lady friend.

well if i remember correctly you can get a-pillar gauge pod from RRM webpage, as for internals, i think they have new pistons on their webpage as well, not sure about the fuel system and so forth.

Custom custom custom custom.

Y ou can make your own custom kit by piecing together parts for much cheaper than a kit. Had I not had imminent rod bearing problems, and chose to divert my money to repairing my block, I would have been spooling for about 1200 bucks about 10 psi or so.

its a 2.0, and the RRM kit comes with a t28 i believe, which is prtty good for our car if your not planning on HARDCORE boosting and has almost no lag whatsoevre.
