Predator Performance Lancer GTS (Stage 2)
Some of you may remember our Lancer GTS:
We went to the track completely stock and managed to do 15.80, this were the results using stock rims, tires and full weight:
60': 2.33
1/8: 10.14 @ 69mph
1/4: 15.80 @ 86.5
This were the stock numbers on a Mustang Dyno:
After that we decided to install an HKS axle back exhaust and didnt touch the rest of the exhaust, the car has all stock resonators and cats:
This exhaust sound really good and is very very quiet at idle, sometimes I think the car stalled, LOL
After that we installed our own Predator Performance Pulley:
The only other mod the car has is a dropin HKS filter and the intake scoop from a RallyArt Turbo:
Then, we performed a basic Predator Performance reflash in our dyno and these were the results:
Not bad considering the basic mods the car has. The next day we went to the track and this were the results:
60': 2.2
1/8: 9.80 @ 72mph
1/4: 15.19 @ 91.11
60': 2.23
1/8: 9.75 @ 72mph
1/4: 15.16 @ 90.5
Those are just 2 of the 5 passes we did, all of them between 15.1 to 15.3 and always 90 to 91mph. We think those are good gains for such minimal mods and a very quiet car.
We have tests, comparisons and dynoruns specifically for each mod, I will post some more later... Thanks....

Sorry, have been busy working with the Lancer! 
We spent a little more time on the dyno today trying to get more horses, we saw some gains playing with the Mivec, the car now has 165whp and the torque curve looks a lot better. This is in a Mustang Dyno that reads around 8-10% lower than a Dynojet. The car still has no intake or exhaust, just axle back.
We will continue with the tuning, but we are now seeing that the cat is becoming a restriction when its cold, apparently when it gets hotter if becomes a lot more efficient. You can clearly see it in the curve and AFR when you do 2 pulls in a row.
Next time we are going to the track with better numbers and without the 18" rims, we expect some mid 14's in the near future on 93oct.
Here are the timeslips of the previous runs:
