You should tell him to lose the girl pants. You never know when somebody might be taking pictures; J/K.

i would prefer that it not be turbod. i'd rather it be just an AWD Lancer with the NA 4b11. that would drop it's price a lot and if I want to turbo it i'll do it myself with a turbo that either matches or out boosts the Evo X.

In order to 'out boost' the Evo, you'll have to redo the internals of the engine. That would probably negate any savings in the price.

Nah, just relaying already posted information, check out the first set of comments on the spy shot page. It like they are more interested in the capris he's wearing, or at least they are trying to figure out what he's wearing. Some people say long shorts, some people say capris, I say capris.

that depends on who does the labor. if someone is so in to their car that they are thinking about adding a turbo, they hopefully have the knowledge to do it themselves. i don't think that the engines will be that different, personally. everything i have read says they will be very similar.

I'm pretty sure the Lancer will run a higher compression ratio than the Evo will. You'll have to redo the internals to bring the compression down if you want to match the Evo. That's not mentioning any changes they do to the head.

Doesn't matter, all this is just hypothetical..

Apparently the Ralliart won't be turbocharged.
Stealership employees don't know anything. They are usually the last people to know about stuff like this.

My friend heather works in finance for South Coast and Victorville Mitsubishi. When I show her spyshots of the new 2008 Lancer, she had no idea what I was talking about. We even held a bet (obviously I won). She went back to her boss and even he didn't know about the new lancer. She finally found out (through her boss) a month in a half before they released the vehicle.

No way, look again. Look below the muffler, you can clearly see the 2 bottom bolts of the "Meat Ball"
