Oh, and for the record, I said NEAR a dozen. I never presented as fact that there were 12 kits sold.

This update is pretty sweet, but it actually comes down to buying a ralliart, minus the warranty and all wheel drive!

Now thats funny!!! How cool do those flipping flapper flap padal shifters look???

Besides, again I only paid $16k for my GTS and a little over $4k for the turbo kit. Thats only $20k. Price that compared to the RA. I think it was a well investment.

I'd take the ralliart anyday... Or the 2.0 genesis

It just does not compare to OEM engineering

+1 i originally wanted an MR but they werent out yet..

so those paddle shifters are also on the MR, a car that cost more thn 2x as much as a brand new GTS..theyre also on audis, 120k mercedes, even the ferrari. so i dont really see anything wrong with it..

my lancer is CVT and for a DD its great being able to shift when you want and not having to worry about a clutch.

and serious i see what your saying about how you got your car for 16 and spent however much on it being less than a RA but thats not the way to really say you got a better value or necessesairly a good investment ..thats just like someone finding an 06 Si for 15 and get a 5k turbo kit and have 300whp and say my value is better..or even buying a 300zx TT for 10k and putting 8k of mods and push a **** load of power.. and just being like why get an evo, a good investment is a personal opinion to every person. theres some people like me who dont think its such a good investment to turbo a lancer..and theres some people who do think it is..its just a personal opinion

so lets see...this means i will never buy an MR, audis, 120k mercedes, or even the ferraris.

true manual FTW!

Agree 100%. Hey look at that we finally agree on somthing.

LUDA: You are looking at it totally wrong. If you want to compare Civics, then fine.

2009 Civic: $15k + a $4k turbo is only $19k with 250-300 hp.
2009 Civic Si: $22k and 197 hp

The regular cheaper Civic with a turbo was cheaper and a better investment.

My car, putting down the same hp as a stock RA, was cheaper. How would you not consider that a great investment. Especially if I am happy with the hp I have. The only time the RA would have been a better investment is if I wanted to push it even more in the hp area. Because we all know the market is aimed for the RA and Evo.
