If your having trouble finding any level lancer in a manual just look near a military base. I live near ft Bragg and got every option I wanted. Most people can't tell the difference between my gts and a ralliart. Love the mpg on the gts btw. If I wanted Evo mpg I'd buy a N/A V8.
@cavaderblood thats unreal. I got a VRX (Aussie equivalent of a GTS), and they had more manual than auto. I don't get why people would want a cvt. They're MUCH slower judging by the videos on youtube, $2500 dearer and use more fuel. Different country different expectations i guess.
@ph1ly That's what I'm saying, the manual 2010 GTS's sold out and only the CVT's were left when I started shopping. It was bad timing... They don't use more fuel though. I just need to be patient, I'm going to get a ralliart after I save up a bit.
@ph1ly cvt is better for drag race and it = more torque. My facts I talked to the dudes from RRM road race motor sports and they even said it can handle turbo but it needs cold air intake + inter cooler and low boost turbo so the cvt can handle it, And Something else he had mention to add with the turbo for cvt I had forgot but I plan on making my 08 lancer cvt A project car. and why get an evo and be some poser that just buys A car out of his ass and thinks his the best.
@swat305GINO why buy a car already tuned up it takes the tune out of tuner lol. and the turbo kit for cvt u have to add oil every 3,000 miles or else well you know where i'm going with this :P
@ph1ly I had to drive to another state to get my GTS 2011 manual this spring. I can't imagine driving a CVT version of this car...where's the fun? Most dealers don't like to stock manual because the automatic is more expensive and they get a bigger cut of the sale. But yes..most Americans like to do other stuff when they drive (use their cell phone, do their make-up or eat like pigs) so the stick cramps their bad habit style. i wish all cars were manual...the road would be safer.
Thanks for the responses guys. I actually wouldn't recommend the headers. They rob torque from the low RPM range and transfer it to the high RPM range. This effects your daily driving experience and makes it not as fun to drive. The intake and exhaust are great though. The intake and exhaust probably added about 10hp all around. The headers another 3-5 but shifted to the >3500rpm range which IMO is a wrong dir for this engine.
I actually sold this car and purchased a 370z about 6 months ago.
@kdoske unless you have a turbo/supercharger, I think replacing the headers on a na engine might do more harm than it does good. due to reduced back pressure i think?
that rattle you hear is the muffler hitting the bumper hence shitty install..lol and i hate the 2009 blue colours its too bright unlike the 2008 electric blue,looks like sti colour which is awesome
If you read the info about the video you would see that the muffler problem was fixed. I didn't even know the rattle was there until I made this video and watched it. It was fixed same day.
If I am not mistaken, that sound is caused by the bumper. You see how close the exhaust tip is to that bumper. that is the only thing i dont like about the Axle back. Can y ou adjust it?
For example...i just bought a 1993 dodge daytona IROC R/T for $1,200 it runs mid 12s at the track stock. you prolly spent about $1,000 on your bolt ons and you car is still slow. now yall can get mad at me and talk shit but yall know im right.
theres more to a car then just quarter mile times. Im sure his lancer is more comfortable for driver and passenger, also it has more toys inside,huge trunk and the list can go on. Now he has a nice car that sounds decent while driving. Im sure if quarter mile is all. he cared about he would of purchased something else.
honestly? i dont give a fuk about your pussy dodge piece of shit. its def a piece of junk if you bought it for 1200... come talk when you get a nice $20,000 2009 lancer.
@sexymexy41 I'm sure you're right, but when you're stuck on the side of the road swearing and smashing the hood in, none of us Mitsu owners are going to stop and lend a hand (:
hey im not trying to start shit but traying to make this model Lancer fast by waisting your money on intakes, exhaust, etc is stupid. its like trying to make a cavalier, non turbo eclipse, focus, and all those ricer cars fast. Dont be a ricer and get a real sports car thats worth your money.
maybe he doesn't have the money to frankly i don't give i shit my parents said in summer that im a good kid grades and i got a 16k lancer for my first car what am i gonna do be an asshole and ask for a 30k dollar car
oh my gosh, you dont turbo a lancer... youl be pushing maybe 8psi with the rrm turbo anyways. not worth it. sell it and save the moeny and buy yourself a X. gsr that is.
i was also wondering how much HP you at to it because i have a 09 lancer 2.4L and i purchase a cold air intake from injen but i have intall it yet please let me know thank you
i'm gonna go to the mitsu dealer ship on tuesday to check out the 2.4L lancer GTS i know that in california the 2.0 is detuned to 143HP is the 2.4 detuned as well or is it only for the 2.0?
Hehe, yeah, if you live in a hilly area it's cool. Or in a bustling city. Though it will always be partly manual. Hopefully the CVT is somewhat smooth with the paddies. God, on the M35 and G35, it's so rough shifting. You can feel the clunk of the gears shifting. It's so sad. :(
And why the -2? It is a poor thing the man doesn't have a manual. Manuals are great and anyone who gave me a thumbs down must be a crazy son of a gun who only buys autos.
