TTP-Engineering tunes the 2009 Lancer Ralliart SST

[TTP Engineering]

With the recent release of the 2008 Evo X's little brother the Lancer Ralliart, it was only a matter of time before one of your fellow Zchip.net vendor's got their hands on one for some testing.

We are happy to announce that we had the pleasure of working on one of the first 2009 Lancer Ralliarts in the area.

We have completed testing on our ZChip Tuning Module for the Evo X GSR 5sp and MR thus far and results have been spectacular on these models. The GSR 5sp testing has netted results of up to +107whp over stock with the ZChip and additional boost. +50whp and +51wtq on just the ZChip alone on STOCK boost.

The SST transmission equipped MR Evo X has also allowed whp and tq gains over stock in limited quantities as the SST ECU torque protection limits the gains able to be achieved before the clutches lose traction.

Our suspicions were that the Lancer Ralliart (RA) would have similar torque protection and we have confirmed it in our testing thus far. The SST RA transmission will allow 30-45wtq gains before the clutch will slip as the ECU rejects torque over the limit allowed.

Here are some interesting pictures and hard data regarding the Lancer Ralliart / ZChip tuning process:

Engine bay looks the same as the 2008 Evo X outside of the black engine cover, the battery in the engine bay, unique intake routing and single BCS solenoid.

Here is the ZEITRONIX DATALOG of the stock AFR, BOOST, etc. Its very notable that based on the load cells being accessed by the boost level run in stock form with the Ralliart, the air-fuel ratio is MUCH IMPROVED over the stock 2008 Lancer Evolution X. It seems as if the Mitsu Engineers had enough time to get this car running well before it went to market. The same cannot be said for the 2008 Evo X which in our opinion was rushed to market before it was ready.

Here is the same datalog with the IGNITION TIMING ADVANCE selected. Notice the Ralliart runs 30-31* peak ignition timing advance at 120 KPA.

Post ZChip tuned power and tq figures. You should also note that peak to peak whp gains were notable, what is more impressive are the gains under the curve which were about 35-40whp.

Will you have a preloaded basemap if we buy the Zchip?
I would like one for the new Ralliart. Thanks

What kind of price point will Z chip for RA go for and availabilty/ ETA?
