dont get pissed...but if i get this turbo on my stock m/t gts will i have to get anything else with it for the engine to handle the turbo kit?...exhaust? etc and one other thing i heard on cars you have to break in the engine before you turbo it and you shouldnt wait to long to turbo it though because the engine isnt use to the power, any idea on whats the prime mileage to turbo the m/t gts lancer?

After 1,000 miles, you should be good to go.

Full turbo exhaust is a good idea. Other than that, you should be pretty OK with the kit. . . once it's on sale.

As has been said. the pipeing looks horrible..... If the evo X pipeing comes anything like that factory. shame on mitsu... IC looks puny as well. Im sure it will be a great kit though. either way.

^^well it seems that from the evoX pic there's tubing going from the turbo? around to the front(red tube) but on RR turbo set-up there's tube going from the intake down to the inter-cooler. maybes its opposite?

Ya now that I look at the evo X and RRM, they do look a bit different, but basically the same concept
