Re: Fuck it, traded in the GTS for a Ralliart.

You can bolt the Evo X turbo on to the Ralliart, but it isn't as simple as just swapping the turbo, you need the complete Evo X turbo system to do the swap(turbo, exh manifold, o2 housing, inlet elbow, downpipe, oil/coolant lines, gaskets, Evo X intake).

Your best bet for boost control is to put an upgraded 3-port solenoid on it and get tuned. You don't want to just throw a manual boost controller on it and crank it up.

The Ralliart runs a different boost control setup than the Evo X, which isn't a bad thing, since the passive and reactive boost solenoid stuff that the X uses stock is kinda stupid.

The attached dyno sheet is a Ralliart on the stock turbo that I tuned on E85 cranking the hell out of the tiny turbo. The numbers are in shootout/dynojet mode though.
