i would have to disagree. it's definitely POSSIBLE. i've had 3 lancers so far (2003 ES, 2005 ES, 2007 ES) and i dyno'd at 170 BHP for all of them, with no "crazy" engine work. i highly doubt i have the highest-HP N/A lancers in north america.

And what was stock? Dynos are pointless without a comparison.

Where are the dynos and what are your mods? I'm highly skeptical.

Lol, yep, I call BS. If you can't prove your claims, or even provide a mod list, they're worthless.

Like I said, provide a dyno or a mod list that explains your claim of a 40 hp gain from NA modifications on a 2.0 L econobox.

almost everything is stock on my 2.0-liter engine. i do, however have the following upgrades:

- short ram intake from RRM.
- custom-built 2" eliminator pipe.
- 50 shot of nitrous oxide.

So that engine isn't long for this world. Plus nitrous isn't really a bolt-on mod.

It is forced induction, you're forcing the engine to take in more air than it could by itself.

i'm going by what's in your FAQ. you got it listed under "naturally aspirated."
