phew.. 70 hp. I've done just about everything to a car with the exception of putting a turbo or supercharger on. How far in development are you for upgraded pistons?

Pistons ar on the way. No dyno guys that is an estimate. Tell me if it sounds correct based on this....
Beats WRX, Beats Mustang 350GT, beat Eclipse GST... Anyway runs pretty good. Newbies should check out other thread by Boni, and Liquidlancer. Ask them about their cars.....

Man, screw RPW. I thought RRM's turbo was like 4 psi. but 6 and 70 is hella better than RPW's stage 1.If memory serves, I think RPW's is 5psi and 50hp, and their stage 2 is 7psi and 60hp. Im glad SpAzCoRe_BeYoTc asked that question or I might be paying more for less. Rock on Rock.

7-10 hp per psi of boost. 6 psi theoretically can yield 42-60 hp. then other mods are needed to increase hp. My RPW kit at 5 psi yielded 54.8 hp gain to the wheels DYNO PROVEN. a little more than about what it should be cuz it is tuned properly. 70hp at 6 psi seems a little much but there are exceptions. how can you say "screw RPW" when RRM's is not dyno proven. selfish. also if you look at the "stages" you see the little + sign? that means over. so if it is 60+ hp it means the least amount gained is 60 hp but you can expect much more.

WRX stock is 227 hp at the flywheel, give a conservative estimate of 20% drivetrain loss with the AWD and it has 180 ish wheel horses, so 70hp would put the lancer up there in hp numbers and it's also lighter.

WOW, that sure made you mad. I'm not saying RPW's a bad company if thats what you thought. I'm simply saying that I am now going to take into consideration getting RRM's turbo instead of RPW's. And I said if memory serves, which means I don't exactly remember what it said on the website. And how does any of that make me selfish? I'm done with this thread so say what you wanna say z, I don't really care what you think.

having turbos out there is way better than not. i remember when i got my lancer last novermber with the white tape and not being able to get an intake or any options.. look how far we have come. I can't wait when turbos are less than 2000. It will happen, only time will tell.

Capitalism, isn't it great!

According to Turbo magazine, the WRX places 168 horsepower at the wheels when on the dyno. This information is available in the August 2001 issue. Since there has been no changes to the car since then, I would assume this to be a correct figure.
