Doesn't the Lancer Evolution GSR run on twin turbo's??

None of the lancer Evo's ever had twin turbos. The only TT from Mitsubishi's side is the 3000 GT VR4

Quad Turbos? I was just thinking about that. I wonder how it would function when used on a McLaren F1 or Lamborghini Diablo. Both V12 with 600+ HP stock. Should be cool huh?

I have this supercar mag and it showed a Lambo. Diablo with a TT setup. It claimed to have over 1300 HP. Damn....wonder how fast the sucker runs. Let's see, the Diablo(the new one) comes stock about 650 HP and runs about in the mid 11's. The TT setup would bring it to low 10's..maybe 9's?...maybe..

both of the cars you mentioned have na motors that are highly tuned...

so if you want to turbo them, there's alot of work that would go into it to either tune them correctly, or rebuild the motor with lower comp pistons and what not...

i'm sure you could get a ton of power out of each though...

but what's the pricing for low compression pistons for a mclaren f1??

hmm...

1300bhp? below 9 seconds is a very safe bet.. i wouldnt tune a Diablo personally. dont mess with perfection

A large Single Turbo is always my favourite- but give me an I6 Twin Turbo anyday of the week

i bet the piston will cost around 3000+ bucks for one. Oh man..talk about expensive. The motor itself probably cost around a couple hundred thousand dollars since the car itself cost 1 mill!!!!
