Hey Guys,


Started a thread on Evo X forum of my Lancer Turbo build!

Thought I'd share it!

2008 Lancer Turbo Build

Cheers

Which intake do you have currently? Is it changing with the new setup? If so, is it for sale?

Right now I have my stock intake and will be using the Ralliart one.

You want my stock one? or Ralliart?

Thought I read in the other post you had an intake on it, not assuming it was stock. I'm looking for an aftermarket intake eventually and if you had one to get rid of I'd probably buy it.

But, that was not the case.

Well after some time, I'm finally moving forward with this project. Now will be rebuilding my spare engine and doing it right!
Engine will be dropped off at DynoTuners on Monday 25th!
Here are some pictures of what's going to be installed.






This among a lot of other things! It'll keep Reza and Abbas busy for a while!

I'll update with more pictures in the near future.

Cheers

I wouldn't bother with the stock exhaust/muffler. All that work you're doing to leave power on the table doesn't make sense. I noticed a significant difference in the way the car felt and how the power hit once I went from the stock cat & catback to a 3" test pipe & 3" exhaust. I then flashed the car with the Cobb OTS "stage 2" and the car is completely different.

I'm not going to be making the kind of power you are Lucian. I'll be running maybe 10-12psi!
Once I'm ready to set up the exhaust, Reza has a guy next door that will be taking care of that for me.
I won't be running a Cat either hehe...

Cheers

Alright so engine is now being rebuilt and looking forward to the next few weeks!
Hope to be boosting finally within the next month. Been so long, I think I forgot how great it is.
I'll update with pics when available.
Cheers

Engine is back from shop and looks great!
Reza is the man!

So are piston evo x too? if not what are piston and rod

No I'm using stock internals... Not going crazy boost but thicker head gasket. Evo X springs, cams.

So what will your compression be?

Stock is 10:1 I'm not sure what the stock thickness is but I'm getting a 1.3mm thick gasket now. Might be 9.5:1

Got my Ralliart calipers in and started working on them to paint them.






Thanks to Lucian!

So finally got her to Reza's place. Put her on the dyno and pulled an impressive 131whp lol... now the fun begins on what she'll do boosted.
Here is a link to the pull.

Here is some of Reza's art work!

What's the cosworth thing? Looks good so far!

Head gasket.

Looking good Isaque/Reza

Right I see it now!! Cool!

Well she's finally out of the shop and on the road!
Here's a video of her on the Dyno.
Almost 230WHP. Plenty of smiles with the results!

Boosted Lancer Dyno Pull
More to come. Will post more pictures and Video on the road.

Cheers

Congrats! Good way to start your New Year!
I bet she may even take stock EVO X on freeway pull

Haha... Put a WRX in his place! We both pulled in 3rd and maybe he didn't hit it hard but I slowly crept on him lol...

So finally installed my Fiberglass hood!
Might leave the flat black...

Looks good man!

Are the vents functional? I would paint it, but that's just me.

Yes functional. The wide vent is open to let air into cool turbo. Ones facing up I can open up but not sure about it because of rain and snow. It's just mesh.

Here's some more updates!

New seats look really good! How are they?

They are awesome... Driver seats has some miles and a tear but it'll get fixed up probably next year.

You found evo X recaro seats, awesome. They are straight bolt on ?

They were from a RA, same as X also but yes they are complete bolt up and have heated seats just like stock ones...

Another sick tune by Reza! 16PSI and 250WHP


New Wheels also!

Lighter wheels I hope!! Look nice

Very impressed, block is all stock aluminum right ?

At Bryan, a little... Not much but they are wider for what I want.
At Alex, Yes Stock Aluminum with thicker head gasket. There's room for more out of her but already it lights up every gear if I push her... Worried about blowing it up lol...

That's alright than! What size tired you putting on them?

Here she is with her new shoes!

Still have an Evo X bumper but will put that on next year when she gets a paint job!
