Possible Hp

I just wanted to know what the possible Hp would be if you had the following upgrades done to the car. I haven't had a chance to do a dyno run, thinking it might not be worth the time.

So this is what I have on the car.
Magna Flow Cat Back
Injen Short Ram Intake
Kamikaze Headers.

Is it possible if someone can give me a rough idea.

maybe 10 more ponies. but its what the power band looks like that i may be a little more concerned about. i thought kamikaze had dyno results on their header, not sure tho. Id say those are pretty good mods so far becuase the all compliment each other pretty well, i would just work on a more full exhaust than just the axel back but then again i think thats all boe was running with turbo.

It's a catback exhaust. That I have not and axl back

What else can I do to gain more Hp without doing a turbo or a supercharger. Hopefully this hasn't been asked before.
It's just hard finding parts in Canada for the Lancer.

Please give some ideas, it would be greatly appreciated.

rrm piggyback ecu will be your biggest gain.

you can also do throttle body, intake manifold, downpipe, test pipe ... really, any parts you see one: www.roadracemotorsports.com is a good way to go. you could also get a camshaft but that would need tuning. with a cam, throttle body, intake manifold, downpipe, test pipe and some tuning you would be seeing noticable differences in power i believe.

its too difficult to say what your hp numbers would be bc of the varied results from the dynos ppl have done. it really wont be too great of a gain tho.

yeah go look at the dyno lancer list and just look at all the different dyno's...it kills me how people wouldnt wait till they had i/h/e or i/h/e w/ ecu. but hey, just go look at all the diff combos ppl have.

just thru search and talking to ppl id look at it like this...

Intake = 3-4 hp ...doesnt really matter what your intake is there all pretty much the same.

Catbak = 8 maybe more ...I have 2.25, but I think nothing xtra is gained from 2.5 unless ur turbo.

Header = 8- 17 ... Not going to go into the debate of the diff. header's.

At the least id say u gained about 16-19 whp. stock whp is what 98whp. If u decide to upgrade the cam (RPW) and/or ECU (Piggyback, emanage etc...) you will see bater gains from each, because the mods will work off of each other. You could also complete your intake process by borring out the Intake manifold and throttlebody.

Thanks so far.

I guess I have to decide on what I want really and how much I want to spend.
