[eggman]

guys, i'm buying a lancer ex gt-a on the 24th and still haven't decided on what color to choose, which do you think is better, black or silver, appreciate your feedback, thanks guys.

Yeah mas maganda kung kulay White ang Lancer EX GT-A na kukunin mo.

Has anyone tried installing K and N short ram intake/s with the Lancer ex? Is it more responsive or it will just produce a better sound? And lastly, will it void the warranty of the car? Thanks!

Almost same power as a drop-in K&N filter, just louder based on dyno tests at speedlab.

Does not void the warranty.

hi sir ghosthunter! would you happen to have the dyno figures for both the drop-in and the SRI. am interested to find out how much HP gain can be obtained from either of the two.

thanks in advance.

Based on what Sidney mentioned to me:

SRI = 5whp gain (plus increased cabin noise)
drop-in = 4whp gain

maintenance wise, silver is the better choice. hindi halata masyado ang scratches and swirls. i chose black. am regretting my decision kasi hindi naman ako magaling mag detail.

white would probably have been better. ayaw lang ni misis kasi.

ah ok. not bad considering that the lancer has about 110whp to begin with. am i right?

thank you very much!

I seem to remember around 120whp (stock) for a CVT equipped Lancer EX.

My car also had a peak gain of 14whp from it's UNICHIP mod & dyno tuning.

My intake & exhaust system are still stock (aside from the k&N drop-in filter).
