RRM Turbo.........70,000 miles later!

I am posting up because my odo just turned 85,000 miles. It actually occured to me that I have been boosting for 70000+ miles now. I installed the RRM turbo kit at 14000 and have had nothing but good times with it. I think I have dozens of kill stories and it has been a running strong all this time. I think my kit needs a little cleaning up looks wise, but it is still strong. I thought about selling the kit when I was hard up for cash but glad I did not do it! Gotta give props to RRM for the best Lancer Performance bar none. Thanks to ROCK and GABE. is for you!

Do the math.......... We have well over 200 kits out there for over 4 years. and so average out mileage for those cars. We have 2,000,000 miles of experience turboing Lancers. That is just using 10000 miles a year per car as a minimum. No one can say that.

No regrets whatsoever. I drive this thing like mad , anywhere , anythime. across the desert to Vegas in 115 degree heat. Never been worried about it. RRM did it right the first time.

There are lots of kits but basically, they all have reliability plus make 70-130 more h.p. than stock.

Thanks for the compliments.

It's good to know that there are lots of kits out there that are reliable besides the RRM kits. Wait... I'm not sure you meant to say that.

I wrote it funny but that is what I meant! RRM has lots of versions of kits. No comment or reference to any other kits made! It is RRM or CUSTOM!

No body start S@#T now...........

Haha... I know. It just looked strange there. I was like, "there's no way he meant that."
