Nope, but i would get the upgraded clutch from RRM cuz the stock will slip after about 1500 2000 miles after the trubo install

if you buy the clutch NOT from RRM, it will be a lot cheaper. I got my ACT MR1-HDG6 kit for $410 shipped. Also, dont try calling RRM for details on the clutch, they dont give out product numbers or anything unless you buy it from them. I had 3" exhaust on my car when it was turboed, and that made a HUGE gain!

get a custom exhaust for turbo setup. find a 3" inlet muffler on ebay (preferrably Megan, because its actually ID 3" which fits over a 3" exhaust pipe perfect) and go to a shop and get custom 3" downpipe-back exhaust, catless and resonatorless (unless you care about noise, then get a Vibrant high flow cat and Vibrant resonator). it cost me $90 for the muffler and $150 to get it all installed. since you are using 3" piping, dont worry about mandrel bending, thats why I went to a local shop by me.

for the clutch, contact a vendor on here by the name of BigValley. ask him about a clutch kit for the 2008 lancer, and tell him yitzac1990 sent you.

Get a ZEITRONIX or don't waste the money. Seriously i have had AEM, Dynojet's a bunch. I do not use anything but Zeitronix that is why we only sell those. Only one we trust. Spend the extra couple bucks.
