just thought id chime in, not that many miles but i think i have the most for the new 04 kits since i think i was the first to install one, just made 16,000 miles on turbo, 45,000 total, and those are not highway miles kids, i go to the track every other weekend, this car and turbo can take a beating trust me, as long as you take care of it, havent had a problem yet that wasnt user caused (not tightening pipes enough, etc.. )
to the great quality parts and customer support from RRM !
Keep it up

I am also looking into turboing my 03' Lancer OZ Rally. I have had a few older (GC model) subarus that had turbo kits and it seemed like a constant hassle keeping it tuned right and running strong. That is the only reason I am skepticle about turboing the lancer. And I owe a ton of money on it! But I want that power back! It seems as though the motors are pretty reliable with proper care and regular services. How do the transmissions hold up? Can they take the power ok with out burning up the synchros etc.? I really want some boost again!!! I will probably sart with the hacker tweeker kit and build my own intercooler kit and accessories (BOV, catch can, etc.) but will use the RRM piggyback for tuning! I drive this car about 80 miles a day on average so it needs to be running all the time.
