even if you waited for the evo10 engine, that thing is gonna cost a fortune. a jdm place i know of that's like the cheapest one i know of sell the '04-'05 sti engine for $8500!!! imagine what they'd price the evo X at.

 

It wouldnt be that much. At the ery least they could borrow the Turbo off of a Evo 10 who is upgrading. and still run small boost and make some power.

 

The Evo 10 is supposed to have 2 version trannys. The auto manual with the paddle shifts and a 6 spd regualar manual

 

Totally off topic. The Lancer Wagon, thats a 4g64 isnt it?

 

FYI the 08 lancer is ready for turbo set up.... you can pick up a set up at the dealer...... I know this cuz one of my friends has one and he asked bout it......

 

Not so sure about that one

 

every car needs more than a lil addon.......it takes alot of bolt ons and hardware and holy s****

 

Thats what my friend told me... He talked to one of the guys and he said they come ready for set up... And that the dealer sold that set up

 

dude dont belive everything people tell you... Mitsu workers are a bunch of bitches they have a fit when Evos have exhaust and intakes. So why the hell would they do a turbo kit for the lancer out of the gate considering a turbo motor is best on a lower compression ratio and all NA cars have High compression ratios. So I bet your buddy was lieing to try to sound good. The dealer was probly talking about the new RA lancer which is supposed to be turbo from the factory and then the Evo obviously we know. So they are doing the with lancers the same as the 1G eclipses were.

3 platforms. all share a 4b11 block
1 is NA
1 is turbo FWD
1 is turbo AWD and all the goodies
^^remind you of something

1g GS 4g63 na
1G GSt 4g63 FWD turbo
1G GSX 4g63 AWD Turbo

 

EMonz is right that they are doing the same as the 1g eclipses and in the same a 1g GS eclipse is not where you want to start if you want to go fast i previously had an 05 lancer ES i had started to upgrade things but it turned into a money pit b/c you have to do everything thats why i went to an 06 RA better tranny engine suspension i just dont know how much i like the new body style or else i would of got one but just personal opinion now the new 08s come a little more sporty and now they all share the same block but not the same internals thats why like EMonz said the Evo is lower compresion for the turbo and the n/a is is higher so if you plan on putting a turbo into the n/a lancer than if you want to run at peak you would need to swap some internals to get a turbo setup
