We (EcuFlash beta team) currently have the 2009 USDM Lancer RalliArt SST ROM file for ecuflash and are about 75% of the way to having the same custom flashing capabilities as we currently do with the Evo 10.

Should be available very soon, just in time for the new 2009 Ralliart owners. :)

Does it have a CAN bus like the X?

yes same ECU, just different Internal ID

yeah, that's what I thought.

It will be interesting to compare the differences between the ralliart and the X at the ROM level.

i don't think anyone here has a 09 RA

Wonder what kind of numbers a tuned RA will get.

that depends on the differences between the Evo X ROM and the RA ROM. They both have the same ECU, most likely the same software, but with a different configuration to handle the differences in mechanical engine related hardware between both models.

What are they putting down stock btw?

+1, may be looking into one as a commuter, heard that transmission is good for those whose spend time in traffic.

Wow, thats not bad.

I disagree, that is bad after a tune. there is little extra capacity for engine modifications from stock. MRs can make almost a 80-100 whp more power without the torque capacity being overrun on the transmission. Evo is better bang for buck. All those ralliarts are stuck with only 40 whp more which is stock Evo territory on that Dyno. Now if they made a 5Spd then skys the limit :), except maybe they did this on purpose so the little bro wouldn't pounce on big bro for a while.

I'm wondering if the ECU just has a lower tq limit on the RA SST or if the RA SST is actually a downgraded version of the MR SST. If the SSTs are essentially the same then you could hopefully use a MR ECU flash and raise the tq limit.

240whp (similar to stock Evo X) is pretty good for something that is cheaper and comes with an auto. If you plan to mod it then the SST sounds like a HUGE limiting factor, but for a DD it sounds like a great deal.

Even 210whp is pretty good for what it is.

I'm still not buying one, the X hasn't grown on me yet and I love the look of the 8/9.

*EDIT* Sorry, it appears they read 256whp on a stock GSR so their dyno is reading a bit high. But 210whp after a tune (GST dyno estimate) sounds decent, but if 250whp is the limit on the RA (or less because of the SST) then it doesn't make much sense.

Ok, I'm ready to custom dyno tune a Ralliart...

Who wants to be the first?

Free custom dyno tuning to the first three ralliart owners. :)

PM me for details.

Bryan any takers from other forums yet? Ben scares all the RA owners away

+52whp / +26wtq from remapping alone. No modifications or bolt ons. 100% stock.

More details on the other forum.

..I'm lost. Other forum?? I'm trying to decide between an evo 9 or 09 RA. This would help in my decision.

I am very happy with the tune , i can really feel the difference i will post the charts when i get the chance. Before tune i was at 196 hp and 221 lbs at the wheels, but after the tune I am at 230hp 243lbs at the wheels ;)
Thanks Bryan I appreciate it

That's good stuff! Imagine with a drop-in filter and exhaust? That would be a nice bump right there.
