how much power does a lancer put down after upgrading the Intake, exhaust, pully, headers?????

i already have the intake, and exhaust.. and i plan to get a pully, and headers to tie me over, till i take the plunge for a turbo....

 

um, not enough. Maybe 140whp....maybe.

 

anywhere from 130 - 160

 

Rather then getting a turbo it would probably be wiser to sell the car and get a Ralliart 09...

 

if u have CVT and want power itd be best to sell it and buy the RA.. but im sure a 5spd turbo can take the auto SST only RA (maybe)

 

5 SPD turbo 2.4 maybe, i doubt a 2.0.

 

the 5spd turbo 2.0 has already taken on the 09 RA According to RRM. And the 5spd won.

 

It actually should as its lighter and about the same power. Also manual is much better when it comes to performance

 

the RA isn't as great as people make it out to be. On the skid pad, the GTS lancer outperformed it, and if you add a turbo to a 5 speed, it will beat the RA. A turbo'd CVT will probably beat the RA since it will be in constant boost and is putting down the same power as the 5speed.

 

this is exactly why i plan to get a turbo for my GTS... i know on the track the RA is probably better overall, but i don't plan to use this car on the track, and i think its actually going to cost cheaper to get a turbo GTS then it is to get a RA... thats assuming the RA will sell for about 35+ here in canada

 

do you think it's worth putting down the extra money to mod the car? or is it just a waste?? (altho the pully and exhaust i can keep once i upgrade to a turbo)

intake, headers, i'll probably sell on ebay

 

Don't forget, when you turbo your lancer wave goodbye to your warranties. At least with the RA you'll have your turbo WITH your warranties... if that concerns you of course All wheel drive is cool too, and I think a couple people said in the RA forums that they're going to offer manual 5 or 6 speeds for the RA as well (they would be dumb not to IMO).

 

RA is gonna be 6spd SST.. no m/t.. and who cares about warranties? if u do why are u looking up performance parts?

 

I just thought I'd mention it, I know there are some people that do care about warranties. Hence why I said "If that concerns you, of course". Also, not ALL "performance parts" will totally void your warranty like a turbo kit would.
The article that says there may be a 5 or 6 speed M/T.

Even if that doesn't happen with the initial release, it doesn't mean it wont in the future.

 

Here's a few things to consider.
1. Turboing a car that didn't come from the factory turboed can be very difficult in the sense that issues you wouldn't normally think about become actual issues. Cooling is an obvious example, oil supply is another. How the engine will handle the power and reliability is a concern. If this is your daily driver, it's going to be beat on. You can say that you won't race it but in many ways it would be better off if you did. If you do track racing you only launch once if you launch at all,daily driving you could do it at every stop light. If you're racing you're usually shifting nice and the car is moving all the time meaning it's constantly getting air. During your day to day driving you're going to stop and maybe get stuck in traffic.
2. Comparing a turboed GTS to a Ralliart is apples against oranges. The Ralliart has to meet emissions, be reliable and quiet, a turboed GTS just needs to run. From a stop, the Ralliart will likely win because of the AWD. A high hp FWD car is also a pain to drive.
