2001 Lancer 1.8L engine/turbo/exhaust questions

Hey all,

1st off the easy question, what size exhaust will give my car a nice deep sound, without sounding hollow or too loud? If possible i wanna also try to get alittle more power at lower rpms. I was thinking about going 2inch but wasn't sure if that will do what i want or not...

ok, next question. How well do the stock 2001 1.8L (4g93) motors hold up with small-medium turbo's? I might eventually look at putting a small-medium turbo on just for alittle extra boost in power, providing nothin major would need to be done for the motor to handle the turbo alright.

Thanks in advance...

He's talking about a Lancer in AU...as in a Mirage here in the states. Different car, RRM's kit will not bolt right on. Racing Performance Works almost certainly has parts to fit your needs however.

2.5" on a low output turbo setup should be fine.

Yeah, their R&D is great, and they're well known amongst US Mirage tuners as a great company.

Hey, with an owner named "David Thomas" how could they be bad, right? I mean..just look at Wendy's.
