Sweet ride man. I still can't decide if I want to keep my 04 RA and add a turbo or if I want to get a new RA or a 06 or older evo. Decisions decisions. Until I decide modding is on hold .

Will you be attending any of the MLR meets? Most importantly the one in SPA.

Your engine swapped 1.6 >2.4L engine Ralliart got stolen. My heart shed a tear for you my friend. Thats got to be like losing a child after all that work you put into it. I hope the drag that guy out and shoot him or his engine breaks down and he cant get parts. At least you got an evo out of it. Someone recently said to me that its more fun to drive a slow car fast than drive a fast car slow.

I have a friend that has a WRX and the first impression was just as you said, it dosen't throw you back in your seat when you switch gears. Turbo Lag does suck in that regard.

Wow, that ****ign thing looks great! and look at the exhuast, don't tell me thats stock! The seats look awesome too, and the hvac controls?!111 Wanna trade them? No torque in first, u must be joking, maybe you have a boost leak, my 06 feels like I have a 2.3 stroker in it or something.

wow, to say the EVO takes off slower than a 2.4 lancer means 1 thing...you don't know how to drive it yet. also, the steering is LIGHTER in the EVO? MORE ASSISTED? did you pull your power steering out of the 2.4 lancer? if not, then i dunno what you're talking about. the EVO's steering is a lot heavier than the regular lancer. i know what both feel like because my brother drives an 05 2.4 Lancer Ralliart (terrible, terrible car) and i drive an 06 EVO IX MR. nice EVO anyway.
