wow those number look really good...especially for a 2.oL. to bad yitzac1990's car blew up at that much psi. these cars are a bit hard to tune once in the 9psi range. hope you guys have it worked out for your next kit.

He hasnt posted in the thread to confirm it im not sure where people are getting it from..did he make a thread or something? and if it did 9/10 it was the tune and not the power, theres guys in japan running 250whp with CVTs and havent blown it..but can anyone confirm that its true?

the issue is not solved..the OP posted in another thread with more problems, he didnt have difficulty installing it..they gave him wrong sized parts which can lead to bigger issues than you can imagine.

look on other forums.. you wont find anything/very few negative things about rrm on this site because the company frequently posts here, and they've had people banned for talking against them.. you would have to scan through other lancer websites if you want honest opinions

not that theres a crap load of stuff wrong..but if there is you wont see it on evom. but back on topic i would like to know whats going on with yiztak

yeah that customer had some issues...he was using a few of the wrong parts together...so once he used the correct parts all is well and the car runs prefect and stands no chance of BLOWING UP...Another Bullet Proof RRM kit on the market...


OOO and in other news a customer dyned his 2.0l turbo lancer and put down more HP THAN A RALLIART....AND THAT JUST A 2.OL......

Giving credit where its due- Finished the R&D up about 15 minutes ago. The fix for the coolant was basically I cut it, cleaned it up, and took some hose and clamps plus rtv and it looks like its doing just fine(just in case it ever happens again, people will know this will work) I also tapped it down a bit.

Back to credit. It idles, it revs, it boosts. No light so far, no heating problems, no problems what so ever running. Car didnt miss a beat. Its...fine, nothing much I can say that hasnt already been said. It sure was a pain in my a$$ but its running great. I still gotta drive it around a bit but I dont see any problems. My little drive around went smooth as well.
