Re: New to this! Questions about my GTS

Give that $1500 umph to your savings account instead, save up, and trade it in for a RA or Evo. You'll spend thousands of dollars on your Lancer and still get no where near close to a bone stock RA or Evo's performance.

welcome to Mitsustyle! I'd highly recommend keeping it stock and away from forced induction. A car that isn't turbocharged from factory, technically, isn't supposed to be turbocharged even if it can 'handle' all the boost. It's going to be much more of a headache going from a car that is non-turbo'd to turbo. I'm pretty sure it will exceed your $1500 goal also. Like Kracka said, save up some cash and get the RA because it'll be darn worth it.

As for the simple mods, I'd just get the intake and catback exhaust (optional). You won't gain much out of it but at least an intake for that "extra" push those engines are going to make. Installing an intake is pretty straight forward too. If you need any help, I'm sure anyone of us around your area will be willing to help out if we have the time to do so. Good luck
