2008+ turbo kit - from xtremeboost
And the Lancer is FWD meaning no hard launches either (unless you like wheel spin). From a stop, AWD rules the roost, but once you get moving, power is king.

^^ I still think that with an LSD and the Ralliart w/out any hard launching capabilities, the FWD Lancer will rule the roost!
In the end, we are both speculating... talk is cheap, someone get out there and show us who the winner is!!!

Its all talk on the turboLancer end, the numbers are already there for the stock R/A. So far no real numbers have been posted or made available that shows that the Lancer's are faster.

Beat a R/A how exactly? 0-60, 0-100, 1/4 mile, auto-cross, braking, what? Or just sheer horsepower?
Its just that seems funny to me that you spent 4k on a turbo kit, and came here to brag that you can beat a stock Ralliart. I am sure if someone had 4k just to blow on their Ralliart on just the engine alone, they could go to the X forums and brag that that their R/A would smoke their X's, then the same X guys could go back to the R/A forums and say they spend 1/4 of that and smoke their 4k R/A. Or I could say I spent 1/4 of what you paid and still smoke your turbo Lancer, and it would take another 4k to beat my R/A +1k.

), it was Serious08 and some other RRM turbo guys. get your facts right. and the point of saying "I can beat a stock RA" is because they are stock, and dont have 4k into THEIR motor. the turboed lancer is basically up to par with the stock RA except for the 4wd of course, thats why they are comparable. saying a 4k RA can beat a turboed lancer is like saying "hey my turboed lancer can beat your regular lancer!" well, duh....RA guys are so full of themselves....at least i can drive a stick and hear my blow off valve
