Questions Regarding Turbo Kits

[niky]

Madugo ang conversion to AWD sa Lancer. If you're concerned about safety and body integrity... wag na lang.

They're going to change your fuel tank, for one, then they cut out the rear multi-link subframe from the body mount. They weld in the rear differential in its place. It's very ugly to watch... an acquaintance did that to his daily driver... inggit ako, pero I never asked for a test drive... too scared of the rear end giving way...

Pero, as ssaloon has said, you can just put the engine in and convert the tranny to front-wheel drive. Okay lang siya as long as pa-easy-easy ka sa gas. But expect consumption to be bad. Maybe 5 km/l in traffic, at worst. Oops... sinagutan pala ni ssaloon...

For me? Your build should include the engine swap plus the suspension, brakes and heavier duty wheel hubs from the Evo. Evo wheels are optional. ...medyo mahal nga lang gawin lahat, so puwede by stages nalang.

The engine swap alone should cost you on the hefty side of 150k. :evil:

Cheaper swap would be MIVEC... mga 50-70k lang yata... that gives you an engine that's at least a match for the 160-170 hp Hondas out there... not sure about the price, cause it's been a long time since I looked.
