Ralliart in Import Tuner march issue

[hackerrei]

Hi

Did any one see the march issue of import tuner in the power page we made it RA fans.
Well for there first dyno pull they landed on a stock RA with 45k miles 09 RA
197.0 HP 214.5 TQ.

they then added a K&N panel filter and got 205.1 HP 219.7 TQ a gain of 8.1 HP & 5.2 TQ

Then a DC Sport scs single canister exhaust and got 217.0 HP 222.0 TQ a gain of 11.9 HP and 2.3 TQ

Then the DC sport test pipe netted 227.2 HP & 223.7 TQ a gain of 10.2 HP and 1.7 TQ

For a total of 227.2 HP & 223.7 TQ total gain over stock 30.2 HP and 9.2 TQ

total price of build
piece 1 $69
piece 2 $468
piece 3 $136.08
total $673.08

Not to bad and with out tune so add a tune and you got around 240 to 260 HP

what do you guy's think sound about right.
Just happy we made it to the mags finaly.lol

Thats a lot more then I expected. almost 10hp from a panel filter? I didn't think that made that much of a difference considering our turbo "bottleneck".

That's good to hear...imagine if w/evo x pipe swap and a tune...the #'s gonna be higher...it's bout time RA get some respect!

what a horrible choice in wheels

[kenpora]

Yeah those wheels are horrible!

Great gains on those parts! I know my next mods will be X FMIC and X BOV, then probably exhaust parts and then tune.

I agree what a horrible choice of wheels but that did look good spinning. Great power gains for the price but i think im going to have to stick with the dual muffler. Anyone now if theres and advantages with going with a single exit.

less back pressure

Nice gain....im about to get tun with about same mode just dual exhaust...well see
