7-11 lbs sounds good, about how much HP will that give us

 

i think it should put us in the 220whp zone which is by far good enough . cause that would equal estimated 260bhp . Well thats what i hope RRM can get us safely and with stock internal to. 220whp is perfect

 

220whp would easly put us in high 13's low 14's. My eclipse stock was 215whp and i did 14.2 automatic tranny. and fat pig weight was 3700pounds! vs lancer being 3000! so i def see 14's with a turbo right guys!?

 

In an ideal world, expect a 10% increase in performance for every 1 PSI. In the real world, maybe about 6% to 7% increase per pound of boost. Either way, it's not too shabby. But keep in mind that too much boost may make your CVT die a quick yet agonizing death.

 

with the cost of current evo maintenance...no thanks. i don't even own my gts anymore i currently have an 08 cw gti...couldn't wait for boost and 6 speed is substantially more fun than my cvt was. i am however looking to pick up another lancer. (can't afford an evo either )

 

not to mention insurance on an Evo for me would be near insane...

 

We usually see 12-14 h.p. per lb of boost. I think it will b e the same with this car.

ROAD/RACE

 

So if we use 7lbs of boost than we can have between 84 and 98 h.p more.
And if we use 11 lbs of pressure than we can have between 132 and 154 hp more. I'm guessing that's to the crank right?
Anyhow if we have 152 hp than at 7 lbs that's 236 - 250 hp total.
And at 11 lbs it would be 284 - 306 hp. That sounds to good to be true, we won't be able to overcome the evo X as far as power goes. Or will we?

 

with engine mods down the road anything can be possible.....

 

do you think that it would allright to put a turbo on an automatic? or can the transmission not handle it? some one made me believe for that to b so yea. you tell me

 

^ omg.. we have been talking about that for so long... read the freaking posts!!!! i know its over 20 pages long.. but com'n!

 

hey dont raise your tone with me! lol could you just sum it up for me? or am i really reading 20 pages?

 

yes it can in short, maybe not as high boost but yes it can support a turbo just depends on how high psi and how long its goin to last

 

True, but what I meant was what if we only use the RRM turbo kit, and maybe an exhaust as well. I don't think these numbers will be possible withouht changing the internals of the engine and other parts I'm not familiar with.

 

allright thanx, im gonna try and trade in for a manual, talk to my dealer

thanx though
