Hey guys.......i have an 02 lancer oz and it's pretty modded i might have someone buying it here with in the next week but if i can't sell it i was think of making it turbo!!!! I have a couple questions about it first tho? How much horsepower do you get out of it and would you have to replace any part of the manifold or anything?? let me know because i would like to do this semi soon thanks

 

Turn off the pink, and do a search....then we can talk FI

 

here danno better? lol

 

Yes lol, that was just a little too much big font on my screen.

The best person for this question would probly be Boe or Hobbie but I will try to answer it.

Basically, it depends on what you want to spend, what you want it for, and how long you want your engine to last.

If you want a really fast car running high boost you will be putting more strain on your engine and it wont last as long. If you use a simple RRM stage 1 turbo with 6-8 psi of boost you have a 200hp (estimate) daily driver that you should get a 100 000+ Km on it depending on your driving habbits, climate, type of lubercation (sythetic or standard oil)(Royal Purple is Best), and how well you maintain it.

Any forced induction setup you pretty much have to change your manifold to a performance header. Good luck with the set up. Run a search in the US Lancer Catagory for "Turbo" and read up on the info. Suck it all in so that you know as much as possible.

I used to believe that supercharger was the way to go untill very reciently BOETURBOLANCER changed my opinion.

Cheers

Try reading the existing threads on turbocharging. Searches work wonders, and all your basic questions can be answered if you take the initiative to look on your own first.

If you want power, expect to pay for it.

Search! Search! Search! Hard to find in the site search engine but google and others will pop up quite a bit of info. RA seems to be most common in turboing.

 

just buy a white rsxwith gold 18s and do hondata,exhaust with test pipe,header,intake and pulley and you will run mid to high 13s just as fast as a turbo lance would be but more relyable : ) boo boo

 

.....multiple personalities again?

 

yeah good point, go buy the rsx with gold 18's hahahaha, and spend about 5 grand more. not to mention ur insurance, good idea tho...

 

or spend 1/5 that money and get a 1g awd dsm...

or a 95 1/2-02 3.8 v6 camaro/firebird(they run about 15.4-16.0 but can be modded to hit mid 14's w/out spending a dime)

or 'an evo' as 99% of the Evo ppl say cuz they have there head up there ***.

ur 'safest' most commonly chosen route is RRM, on an automatic the $3k non-ic rrm kit made 173 whp on the lancer...the IC kit made 192-194 whp, and the stage 2 IC kit for auto made 223 whp. not bad for the auto.

but the auto tranny needs some help to hold more power i guess....ud have to ask GURU_DEL he knows all about automatic/turbo crap

 

after i dont know how many some odd posts. someone finally answers the damn topic question. thank you drive 02 lancer. you said exactly what i would have said.

 

Thats funny. I had a Type S RSX before with all the same mods, with the exception of the header, because they dont do **** on that car. Mine ran a best of 13.9 here in Vegas...
