2014 Lancer GT Tuning question.

My current setup is a 2014 Lancer GT with a cat back exhaust system and a takeda cold air intake. I was looking in to tuning my car (ecu flash) I was wondering if any of you guys knew how i would or should go about tuning my car. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

I too am curious on whether he has a modified cat back or from where.


Have been looking for awhile to see where I can get one for mine, being that it is the same model year as his.

There are a few of up out there with ECU defs. I've created and defined most ROMs myself.

IM new here, and saw this post. I am looking into intakes. I traded in my Honda civic for a Lancer GT. I had a Takeda intake in my civic, and I really liked it. Was thinking of doing the same for the Lancer GT.....How do you like your Takeda intake on the Lancer? which one do you have?...thank you

Intakes do very little to add horsepower and in comes cases you will lose power in the long term after the fuel trims compensate for the change of air readings.

Especially with a lancer, I would say go for a works ecu. going full dyno would run $500-600, and the upgrades would be less than 10% usually. So essentially, it would be a waste of money so go for the off the shelf ones.
