The guys at Super Street have decided to make a year-long project of a 2009 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback Ralliart. We can certainly identify with their aspirations of un-detuning that 4B11T back into Evo territory. They’re working with Road Race Engineering so we’re confident they’ll reach their goals.

Here’s a little teaser:

We asked Mike what kind of power the other tuned Ralliarts were putting out and what type of modifications we might want to consider as we get our project under way. He told us we could easily work with our stock turbo and “be able to hit stock Evo horsepower figures with a new up-pipe, Evo X intercooler, downpipe and free-flowing exhaust,” not to mention a very noticeable feel in day-to-day driving performance. Once the stock configuration is maximized, switching to an Evo X turbo should place us well into the 300hp category but we’ll have to start thinking about transmission cooling once we hit it, especially if we plan to take the car out for road racing. That means the hunt is on for a stock Evo X intercooler because we’ve already found some prototype engine bolt-ons that we’re going to test out for our next update. 300hp, we’re locked in and aiming for you…
