Try RMR Products

They have a development turbo kit for the US Lancer I think.

Nope, no Tubo from RMR yet.

There is www.ddynopower.com that says it will have one out by mid-December, and it is mid-December, but nothing new non their site. Hmmmmm.

I know a few members from Club3G bought this turbo kit. Check with RochesterRed and Coolboy. There are a few others, but I don't know their names.

Mitsubishi hired Road///Race Engineering to install a turbo on the Lancer Oz for SEMA. It was still at RRE last time I was there. I don't think they are doing a "turbo kit", but I know they did the work. I'll dig up pics of it later on.

I agree. Here are the pics from SEMA of the Lancer that RRE did the work on:

Smile Prices on RMR Parts

Hello,

I am new to this board and see that there is very limited parts for the US Lancer. The OZ is my wife's car and I have a 95 GS-T heavily modded. I called and got some prices without shipping or tax on the parts listed on their website.

They are as follows:
RMR Intake - $155.00
RMR Exhaust - $525.00 (This is only the muffler, not catback)
RMR Strut Bar - $200.00
Rear Spoiler - $480.00 (not painted)
Front Lip - $400.00 (not painted)


This is all they have and was told to me that the turnaround is great, so since these are the only parts, order away!

performance ....

So what kind of performance gain are we looking at here with a RMR intake and an RMR exhaust combined? Like 17-22hp? And where could I get some performance headers?

I would bet the RMR exhaust will do the least. The intake will depend on how restrictive the stock setup is. The best thing to do would be to dyno your Lancer stock and then install the intake and see what gains you can get. 9 times out of 10, the advertised hp gains are more than what you would actually achieve.

Turbo coming for ddynopower...!!!..!

The turbo kit coming from ddynopower.com is said to be a completely bolt-on kit with everything you need for around $3200. They also said it will give us around 120 horses.... so thats 240 horses. That will let us keep up with those EVO's. The handling of the 2002 Lancer is plenty good for city driving anyhow... I'm pretty sure its goin on sell in the very short future, just in time for my Tax return and my first oil change.

All I have to do is find a decent exhaust system and I'm gonna be set!

Sweet! Just remember to upgrade your brakes Maybe StopTech would be interested in producing a kit for the Lancer.

A few members from Club3G bought the ddynopower turbo kit for their 3G Eclipses. Talk to RochesterRed and coolboy. RR has a GT V6, and coolboy has the GS I4. I don't think either one of them was very pleased with the turbo kit. I'm sure either one of them would be willing to answer any of your questions about the kit.
