Canadian Newbie
 

Hi everyone, came across the site in a search, thought i'd join.

I have an 04' Lancer Sportback Ralliart (turbo'd) it is the only turbo'd wagon of it's kind, as it is a 1 off kit. Hope i can talk turbo's witha few of ya as I'm looking to upgrade my current 16g to a bastard 20g.

Currently the car is pushing 7psi @ 230hp. She gets the groceries home before the icecream melts.

Did i see you on 94 towards Madison this past weekend? I have a black Evo IX. I know your from Canada.. but I was passed by a very similar looking ralliart wagon.

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

i knwo i took out an black evo coming through Salt Lake a few weeks back coming back from Vegas, I do have a vanity plate (alberta) TRBOWGN, but wasn't me unfortunately

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

Cool ride! What are you using to tune that beast?

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

Thanks, I'm currently running the "Split second" tuning oackage, but that is going to be upgraded here with teh new turbo as I find it lacks in dynamic tuning. Hopefully when the block is complete, I should be running close to 330-340hp with new cam, new low compression pistons and port and polished intake mani.

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

Do you have a FMIC on that thing? Perhaps some alky injection is in order! See my thread in the project section.... :D

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

wow never woulda guessed that thing would get modded. Welcome to the boards.

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

Nice wagon, also who designed that manifold? Is the wastegate of the #2 runner?

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

Hey whats up man, i like your ride, thats pretty badass lol

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

Welcome on board!!!

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

Welcome man... Dude your car is sick as hell.. Damn I bet you love showing kids up with it all the time... and they are goin home all like, "dude, I just got killed by a wagon" bahahaha

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

Nice wagon! That thing looks pretty sweet.What motor do they throw in those things?

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

Sweet sleeper. Welcome to the forums.

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

thanks everyone, yes it is a sleeper, i took some young kid in his Dads WRX and he me saw a few weeks later and was all pissed cause a wagon beat him, I've had a Z3 owner follow me home after I took him and he was an older guy and loved the car, it is a car you wouldn't expect to see modded or blow some doors off when need be. As for the motor it's a 2.4ltr Mivec, same as all Ralliart platform Lancers. The complete kit is the only RRM turbo they ever built, they have a second one but not sure if that sold or not, I drove out to Cali to get the kit, installed it locally.

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

Looks good!

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

looks really good. you should build the 2.4 bottom and put a evo 8 head on it

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

^ funny you should mention that, that is the next step, i have a complete bottom end and we are swapping out for lower compression pistons, new cam, and then we were looking at that option, but were uncertian if the evo head would work? just curious as the evo motor is 2.0l and the Rallairt is a 2.4, but that shouldn't make a differnce?

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

Welcome,
as long as the heads have the same layout, the evo head will most likely flow more. It is something I would also reccomend looking into, plus you will have an easier time finding upgraded parts for the evo head.

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

Evo head + *thumps up*
Just google the Japanese full RalliArt version Wagon, it made great power.

Re: Canadian Newbie
 

hmmmm couldn't find anything, however I did have sites on the evo wagon, still the same 2.0ltr engine as the evo, but maybe that would be the better way to go and more solid set up for a bit more psi boost.
