That would be either ZLancer or LiquidLancer, who both have successfully turboed their cars and are squealing their tires around northern New Jersey, terrifying state troopers to no end.

I'm also assuming that the Lancer being sold in Canada is exactly the same being sold in the US.
For more info about swapping a 4G63 into a North American Lancer do a search in the forum and you should find what I'm talking about.

250 to the wheels and only getting 14.6? That doesnt seem too good. I'm not trying to flame here so please don't take it that way. Did you just have a bad launch or something? Seems like alotta spent money and poor 1/4m times.

and at the current boost im running my rev speed meter says a little over 250 to the wheels
and this is comign from someoen who DOESE own a turbo and z lancer is correct to cause he to is another owner of a TURBO lancer

i think liquids rev/speed meter should be set on fire if it says 250 hp at the wheels. His current boost would need to be over 15-16 psi to make that much power. and a stock lancer motor can't handle that....unless liquids motor is rebuilt...but i doubt that.

it's not stock
his motor is not stock it has the new rrm pistons and it's running 9psi.and i think rob is going make him the new headers work with the turboso he can get rid of the carppy stock exhaust manfold. iyou guys think this block and engine is weak but it's the same block use in the 4g93 dohc turbo gsr mirage and 4g92 mivec i seen does car runnig high boost and 300whp+

dont worry
all you guys that are worry about this carb stuff .just buy the parts and when comes time to inspect the car at the dmv put all the stock parts back on.if your going to buy parts that are all carb approvce you anit getting no real power.the whole point of a header is to remove the frist cat that takes the most power from your engine .so it's not going to be carb legal.turbo is CARB legal unless you have the testpipe.

the block is the strongest thingin the engine.the conrods and connecting pins and piston can be bougth from rpw for no more then $1500 so thats not a big problem ether.and rob siad the gaset is a like a hks gasket . i seen ford foucs runnig at 9 psi with only forge piston doing 234 whp and foucs comes stock with like 90 something whp.so the lancers has to get more power then a fous does because the lancer has 108.3 whp stock.

I'm not doubting Rob, but I have witnessed the results amongst the mirage guys using either NOS (torching the piston and cracking cyl head) and TC setup that blew up the headgasket. All of this coming around being greedy and ill-tuned at constant breakneck speed at 11-13 psi.
At 234 WHP, that person must have done a cyl head job to crank out that much at 9 psi.

bah i dont see the big problem about engine swaps, i know someone that dropped in a Mitsubishi Cyclone engine, cost a total of 4g canadian, and now he's runing 11s. oh yes, the car is completly stripped.
