Default Squeezing out HP

Hey everyone, i'm new to this forum but...i'm looking at buying a 2004 RalliArt Lancer in about a month. What i want to know is, i want to know how much horsepower/torque (about) that i can squeeze out of this car keeping it naturally aspirated (no turbo or supercharger). Thanks, I look forward to hearing back from someone who hopefully knows their **** about mitsubishi's.

they are 160HP stock with intake and exhaust you can get a little more but really it would cost alot to get a bunch of power and staying N\A. Turbo kits are easy to make up for those cars I beleive the head uses the same bolt up as all the DSMs and EVOs but other than that you prob get much HP. mainly 160 is rated at teh crank so to the whells is will be drastily less around maybe 120ishWHP

i know what they make for stock hp....and i know how much hp exaust/intake add generally, and i know a turbo kit is easy to find...but thanks. Still hoping someone has some helpful info on this subject. Someone who knows a lot about/races lancers. (sorry if it sounds like I'm being an ***, I'm not trying to).

well all I was saying is anything more than that you will need alot of money for I.E. pistons cam(s) tuneing ect ect. it is extremely hard to make a 4cyl car hit 200WHP and keeping it N\A. By keeping it N/A N2o is out of question that is a from of FI. so in other words you could get near 200WHP it would be very hard and very expensive.
