Where would one purchase Lancer turbo kits?

[SithSolo1]

My friend is looking to put one on his lancer.

 

[boyRacer]

Try here... people are putting on custom kits though.

Why?

 

[boyRacer]

There's a kit here... $4k... not worth it IMHO.

why not? there's nothing wrong with a turbo/supercharger kit.

 

[RichieZ]

what for a regular lancer? It will never be an evolution

 

[boyRacer]

Well... can't exactly return his car now so i'm guessing he wants to make it as fast as he can. I hope you know what kind of hassle comes with boosting your motor. Good luck.

Found a Lancer forums site, they recommend these.(same as boyracer linked)

$3000 isn't that much for almost an 80% increase in HP at the wheel.

btw- boyracer, I've always wanted to supercharge my Ram. Whouldn't happen to know about that would you?

That's uhhh the same site i just posted... and yes $3k isnt that much but 200hp isnt that much either... ...but labor will probably be ridiculous unless you guys know someone or its a complete bolt on.

I'm not much of a domestic guy so i'm not the guy to ask but here's couple of threads about supercharging your ram... allpar.com

You could go check out Vortech Engineering... just search for your vehicle and it'll give you what you want to know...

Some recommend Kenne Bell superchargers... but once again... i wouldn't know.

I think you'll end up faster than your friend if you end up supercharging your truck... hahahaha...

here is how you add a turbo to a lancer and not make it suck

 

[SithSolo1]

Heh, if I supercharge the ram I'll have around 300-310 HP at the wheel but then again the truck weighs more and it'll cost about $1500-2000 more.

An EVO VIII would be nice(though I prefer the WRX STis), but he just wants something to hold him over until he gets an Acura TSX.

Thats a lot more than just a turbo....and most people will have no means of adding the structural changes either.

TSX has only 200hp you know.
