2013 ES to Ralliart Conversion?

Hey guys new to the site and fairly new to Mitzus so I might come off a little ignorant here. I know it's not really damn hard and silly to convert an ES to an Evo mainly because they're technically different models. But is it at all possible to convert a 2013 ES or even GT to a Ralliart? Again forgive my ignorance and thanks for checking out my thread.

Not even worth it. You'd be better off trading in the car and buying a RA. The transmission alone is about $10k

For the turbo engine or the AWD? Or both?

Sorry for the late reply. For the turbo. And the ES isn't CVT

So you're not really trying to do a Ralliart conversion but you just want to turbo your car. It can be done but for how much I couldn't tell you. You could purchase used Ralliart turbo parts off someone upgrading their RA or you could go full custom route as long as you have a tuner.

Yeah I'd have to say you should probably just buy a used ralliart and put money into that

Definitely not worth it. All the problems you see in this forum with STOCK cars, like weird noises at idle at 1500 rpm, or oil burning smell, you would have all these problems times 10. You wouldn't even know where to start looking, so enjoy your ES and save up for a ralliart if you so choose.
