It's possible to get into the 14-15's easily with a turboed setup with a good tune. And that is with no mods. You add a high flow exhaust, ported intake manifold etc... and you'll be down in the 15's.

Bottom line: Lancer 4g94 bolt-on HP is a waste of cash! UNLESS..... You like being different and live outside the box...

I have a dam auto SOHC car that looks way better then 95% of the Ricers out there and can run with the "Si's".

Who really gives a**** in the end besides the person with the car.

DO YOU!

That is all doable. Call us if you are wanting to bounce some ideas off of someone. We will gladly answer any specific questions on upgrades. 25 h.p. gained is a noticable difference for sure but there is a right way and a lame *** way to get there!

RPW definitelly helped me, but now I'm waiting to rebuilt my engine in January. I have few things lined up. A2 valve springs should help my cam up top. Hopefully Prench can make me my twin tb set-up to go with my pistons.

We'll see about those twins. He says they are a PITA and take a long time. I'd either wait for the sheet metal one or just get stage 2

What do you mean PITA? Stage 2 is ported 4g93 IM. I have that. I need more air.

I also have a question about mivec injectors (275) from A2. One guy is selling them and he said they are longer than 240s. Does anybody has them? Or he just don't know how to install them?

We have a lot of N/A Lancer guys in high 15s and we have N/A Ralliart guys running 14s. IT is doable but turbo is turbo, ya know!

I said the twin TBs are a PITA because he has to chop off one side and attach another TB to it. Stage 2 is fine

One reason why I don't like drucea's posts is because he forgets to put "I think" on the end of his opinions. For example, "Prench said stage 3 is PITA, I think stage 2 is fine". Correctly me if I am wrong, but drucea never installed a stage 2 before...am I correct?

Don't mean to pick specifically on drucea, he's a nice guy, but things like that cause a lot of confusion.

You are correctly, I've never installed stage 2. I'm going off the fact that other people have installed it and at first said it was fine. Now that controversy is coming out about it not being ported, I wouldn't say it's fine. On the A2 forums, I stated this concern and Phillip replied saying that he is matching the ports to a 4G94 gasket and that a lot of material is coming out of the manifold. So I don't know whats up anymore.

So did you put the gasket against the IM? If it matches than it's fine.
