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.

There's also Boni. Plus I can think of at least two other members with home brew kits.

I think I need a performance clutch. The RRM would do nicely. Anyone wanna start a 'Buy Boni a Clutch Fund' ?

Apparently the 4G63 and 4G94 (not sure if that's the code name for the north american Lancer) do not share a lot. 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.

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 4g9x block isn't the weakness.

Its weakness at higher boost is head gasket, conrods, connecting pins, and then the piston head.

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.
