More data will come in time. Meantime, people who have them, have posted up stuff. If we do it then people question the validity anyways. Independent tests are better ususally as long as someone scientific does it.

Get this, I talked to my dealership in Milwaukee, WI and the salesman who sold me the car suggested I use RRM parts for my car! He said if I buy the exhaust and the intake from RRM, the dealership would install both for under $100 together and they would in no way void the warranty at all! I didn't even mention RRM, he knew about it. Small world huh? He also said that even springs wouldn't void the warranty unless there was significant proof that they had caused the problem, and that good springs would far outlast the warranty on the car.

someone scientific does it? what does that mean. i doubt people who have said, 'i feel the difference' hardly used a scientific method. sure people have posted up good comments about you're products and as stated above i'm not trying to bash you're products or doubt your gains. but i'm not familiar with your products so i would have to see some numbers. and i'm not a scientific person so i guess i'll just wait til someone does.

You guys are killing me. I wish any one of the trash talkers on here lived by me so I could blow yours stock @ss's of the road. Yeah I said it. But if you want to wait for a DYNO sheet to purchase then that is your wright. But I dont see guys asking Dave Bushur (EVO GURU, BUSHUR RACING))for DYNO sheets or bad mouthing his products or his business ethnics they know that his products are good from testimonials on this forum. I have seen RRM (LANCER GURU!)sponsored cars winning Auto-X events and doing it with authority. Eclipsetolancer (EVOM member sponsored by RRM)won the Winged Warrior F class event buy a 2 second margin. Look at the times that the RRM turboed lancers are running in the 1/4. RRM's Gymkhana 08 car blew the stock 08 lancer off the track at Gymkhana event. These are a few concrete facts about RRM that should have some bearing on what there products are like.

no one is really trash talking/bad mouthing they are just skeptical about the power gains from the product. bushcur is pretty much already proven to make power you have evo guys on here pushing 500+awhp. one of use should dyno it though or do a 1/4 sometime and get the numbers if RRM or another member doesn't first.

showtime... chill. im glad u love your RRM parts and had the opportunity to see their evos win the competition. afterall you are still the only one here that knows RRM inside out. (or at least you made it seems like it). Other forum members still need to inquire some information before they spend their hard earned money.

please dont post an ad for RRM every single time some one asks abot the quality of their product. its starting to get too repetitive.

First off the werent EVO's they were lancers. And I am not posting an ad I am stating FACTS about RRM so people will realize that they have been doing this for years and they and there products deserve some respect (just like Bushur or any other vendor) not to get flamed by some newbie. We are lucky to have ROB and RRM making mods for our cars because if we didnt then who would we be getting them from? This is my third lancer and I have been a member of this forum since 2002. People keep saying we want facts then when I post them they are all getting WELL BLAH BLAH BLAH. I have been trying to help every single 08 owner on this forum by posting sound clips, pics, and information on our cars and mods. And yeah I am kinda opinionated I do realize that this is a new model and will be attracting new guys to the forum but I am just trying to show them were to spend there hard earned money so the aren't getting ripped off by some one else.

We have a very good reputation so we protect it. That means we will remain the World LEader in Lancer Performance. MITSUBISHI CORP, TEIN, GREDDY, ENKEI, ACT, MEGAN, RIPP, AEM, INJEN, BUSCHER,AMS all call us with Lancer related questions. Our products are solid. WE are solid! Viper, call me and I will explain how things work around here. I am not mad but I welcome the opportunity to explain what I mean. Somone like Showtime is not a paid supporter but rather a believer, because he spent money with us. He is happy. You can't take that away from him! Showtime and I have talked at length on the phone a couple times. He didn't call and just say I want to buy it. We talked about the pros and cons of the car, the products, and we explained the process for making products. He understands. That is why you see his passion in print.

I am not doubting that RRM does good work. If they didnt do good work they wouldnt be in business at this point. But at the moment, regarding the parts specifically for the 08 Lancer (the car I drive, hence only caring about those parts), we have one person on the boards who has experience with them, and I have to take what they say lightly because its impossible for them to say anything but the best for RRM (and the worst for others I have seen) while typing "there" when they should be typing "their" or "they're". These forums are pretty much the place to market their parts and you are gonna get all sorts of buyers. Some are gonna buy the first thing they see because its there, and others want some practical information before they are willing to buy. In terms of the latter there isnt much except talk. I mean, the only people putting up stock dyno sheets have been Works and Blacksheep.

If I didnt want to give RRM a chance I would already be done and not part of this conversation. But...I wont shut up on these forums about seeing some numbers because I know the second I see them Ill be buying the parts. I just need to see some numbers first

^You see BLAH BLAH BLAH. When you get something useful to post let us know(facts or helpful information). And my Opinion for the OTHER vendors you are talking about (you know who I am talking about)comes from experience of knowing about cars and knowing about how they do business from talking to them and researching them threw threads and post. I am not some jerk out trying to flam anyone just trying to point people in the wright direction.

Show time - where are the facts? I haven't seen you post one damn number. All you say is "yeah, it definitely cuts 1 second"... Can you take the time to post the before/after numbers? You talk smack and talk about how you're going to whoop my "stock ***" but you do nothing to back it up. I really don't need you talking **** at me. As you said, it's my right to want certain information before I make a purchase decision. So stop talking smack before it becomes a serious problem.

Also, since you didn't take the time to do ANY research, Buschur gets involved in flame wars with customers and disbelievers EVERY SINGLE DAY. For every Buschur fan, there's a Buschur hater. Just like RRM. This isn't new. It's called normal business on EvoM.

NO NO NO SHEEP I wasnt talking about you and the facts I was talking about where RRM times on 1/4 mile turbos and auto-x events not 0-60 times. I wish I could get you guys some dyno tests but $110+ for 3 pulls is a little pricey for not really getting anything because I cant afford a tune with it. Please lets all get along I hear you about Bushur but I met those guys and there pretty frickn sharp.

Damn! That pricing blows! Buschur offered me $75 and my buddy at Mustang does $50 for baselines...

The AX times are nice, but as we've seen, everyone just goes "Oh, that wrong because BLAH BLAH BLAH." I'm very impressed with the AX stats.

I know what you mean. We're all on the same page, but we're arguing about what paragraph to read.
