there is no way that this guy is over 110whp...especially with the full 3" "downpipe back" will prolly do more harm than good...too much air flow yo....lol....plus rmr intake and 3" exhaust will never increase a cars crank up to 168hp from 120...that means im close to 200hp...lol....so all i can say is bull****...

Um...I know Nick. Several of us in the NE have met him as he hosted the Shriner's hospital meet last year. His car may have JDM PARTS, but it's certainly not JDM. As for the dyno...can't read it. I wiped the dust off my screen with my t-shirt and got nothing out of it but a dirty shirt.

Whoa! Wait a minute. Do you see anywhere where Nick made a claim to it being JDM, or having 180 hp? I don't see it on cardomain or on these forums. I only see some stranger claiming he said it. Nothing personal, and I'm not saying who I think is right or wrong. I just know Nick to be a valued poster on these boards, and I have yet to see him make any claims such as the ones this thread is saying.

k, now im done. feel free to flame me. i really hope his cardomain account is a joke. but i dont understand why he argues so strongly that he really does have a "JDM" lancer to a WRX owner. and this nick on cardomain is appearently the same guy who is arguing he has a 'jdm' lancer. and it says 'NICK' on the car domain site....

oh, and i would also like to add that no, this car does not exist.

I appreciate all the replies. Here is the post from my local forum where he posted up defending his supposed JDM Lancer.

http://www.massdriven.com/yabbse/ind...y;threadid=807

It's mostly a Western Mass enthusiast site with cars anywhere from STis, EVOs, WRXs, SRT4s even turbo Mustangs. Anyone is more than welcome to register and post up on my board. Thanks again guys, I love Lancers I just hate liars and ricers.

Wow, what a ricer. I'm pretty sure my Lancer ES has a J in the VIN so does that mean I have a JDM spec Cedia? Sweet!! Now, must go and find somebody elses dyno sheet to steal and my plan will be complete...

Hahah, thanks guys. I really appreciate the help calling this guy out. Unfortunately it's people like this that give Sport Compact enthusiasts a bad name. Thanks again.
