yes i know, exhaust and intake. a turbo kit technically comes with exhaust and intake in the form of, well, a high flow filter and a new manifold/downpipe. so id guess that with the turbo kit, you would make 20 whp just from those 2 things alone, let alone the turbo itself! lol
a turbo kit comes with its own intake..so the intake numbers are factored in with the hp gain of the whole kit. your intake now would be useless with a turbo. 20whp from an intake and exhaust? even with a turbo your not gonna get the car to respond like an evo..those numbers are way too high..with just your exhaust your gain isnt gonna be that much

The turbo kit has an intake design to route to turbo only. It is not the same aas a regular intake going to TB. Exhaust is unique also. The downpipe must route from turbo to exhaust system. Again, it is all custom to the turbo kit itself. Our kit comes with all of these components so that everthing will bolt up to the car, catback, and intake goes to turbo. All the components are included with the ROAD/RACE turbo kit. You do not need to buy or add anything, not even a hose clamp.

im being sarcastic because the other guy said that a stock lancer dynoed at 130 whp. all lancers can dyno differently...it depends on the driver, the dyno, the ambient conditions, etc. he said that a stock lancer dynoed at 130, and i was pretty just saying "oh so with intake and exhaust you gain 18 whp"

ok, i guess i misread, sorry! BUT people have given great feedback about 148 whp with just exhaust and intake, so I assume thats very good for just those 2 mods. this may be overdoing it, but want the dyno sheet?
I will get driving/track videos after I get new tires. The stock Dunlops didn't last long with the turbo....
99.9% of all turbo manufactures claim 50-60% gains over stock hp, not just RRM. I dynoed stock in the mid 130s. So take 135 divide by 2 = 67.5. Add 67.5 to the 135 = 202 whp. That is a safe estimate. It could be off +- 5 whp. Who knows. All I know, is that those that have stock Lancers and drive my car, know that the difference is HUGE and worth the money. I'm in the 200 whp range and very happy. Just waiting for internals to turn the boost up.
