: Ralliart Drop IN Air filter for the X
seph09 04-18-2008, 02:13 AM saw one in SCM, any feedback on this would be great...
I'm gonna get my reflash tomorrow and get the drop in with it...:godance:
what you guys think? hopefully my dynobutt readings would feel power gains...
Jackygor 04-18-2008, 02:22 AM What we think?!
we think :ttiwwp:
seph09 04-18-2008, 02:32 AM I'll post some up tomorrow... so does this mean no one heard or have used it before?
they said it was for the evo X, maybe not then (since no one knows about it)...

I haven't seen anyone use it until you started this thread.
on2it 04-18-2008, 09:04 AM very interested!
EVOLUTIONARY 04-18-2008, 01:58 PM Hadn't heard of one yet, but I'm very interested.
seph09 04-18-2008, 09:42 PM ok just got my TSB flashh and my Drop in RALLIART air filter...
not much crazy gains nor hear the spooling clearly...
BUT this is the first time i got my head pulled back to the seat like my previous IX... In comparison, it definitely pulls harder than my IX w/ a K&N drop in... dynobutt says probably 5-10hp, and now i can really enjoy my pulls...
heres some pics...
Oh, got it from SAM@SCM DEALSSSS!!! SAM's the MAN!!!
on2it 04-18-2008, 10:40 PM whats the part number mate?

MooseX 04-19-2008, 01:15 AM $$^?
seph09 04-19-2008, 01:46 AM filter was $140, i couldn't argue with the price being there was only 2 in stock and it was straight from JAPAN...

RA150023S1

Thanks!! not bad for 10 to 15hp... I'll buy one...:rock:
MooseX 04-19-2008, 03:13 AM So what kind of filter is it? Cotton, paper or K&N style...
c4dm4n 04-19-2008, 03:31 AM So what kind of filter is it? Cotton, paper or K&N style...
Cotton:
RALLIART Sport Air Intake Filter is a direct replacement of the stock air filter in the stock air box. This RALLIART Sport Air Intake Filter is made of RALLIART Hi-Flow Cotton Mesh. RALLIART Sport Air Filter is rated to increase 10-15hp over stock MITSUBISHI air filter.
LANCER Evolution X may face air to fuel mixture out of balance with some of after market air intakes without adjusting fuel setting. RALLIART Sport Air Filter increase power with the stock fuel setting while maintaining excellent alir filtration. With this RALLIART Sport Air Filter, you don't need tp worry about adjusting fuel.
MooseX 04-19-2008, 04:58 AM so just like a K&N it's cotton with a fine wire mesh? Do you have to oil it? Looking at the pic I can't tell exactly...pics a bit blurry. These 140 dollar drop ins are killin' me. Someone will come out with a filter 1/2 the price and we'll all be pissed we got one of the 140 versions
c4dm4n 04-19-2008, 04:40 PM Was able to grab one from ebay... on 99 + 10 shipping... was planning on placing the link but I can't find it anymore...:wtfsign: maybe he just had 1... look at the picture...
MooseX 04-19-2008, 05:45 PM Yeah I just checked that guys store and he's plum outta' them :mad:
c4dm4n 04-23-2008, 01:48 AM Hey guys.. got it today...don't know if I should wait to reflash and then place it in...:tumbleweed:... yeah I know :shades: here some pictures...
ddawg1130 04-23-2008, 02:28 AM wait... i didn't think ralliart parts voided warranty?
c4dm4n 04-23-2008, 02:33 AM wait... i didn't think ralliart parts voided warranty?
I would think the same... does anybody knows for sure???:tumbleweed:
on2it 04-23-2008, 11:08 AM unless specifically told that it does not, it would be safe bet that they do void warranty.
note.. the dealer has to prove that that part caused an issue.
EVOLUTIONARY 04-23-2008, 02:10 PM Did you put it in yet?
^^^That's what she said!:p
Kwiq Niss 04-24-2008, 02:02 AM I want to be weary, b/c the last time i posted warranty stuff in here someone started running their mouth. I don't want to start a flame war, but from what I was told at the mitsu dealership, it should not void the warranty.
c4dm4n 04-24-2008, 02:42 AM Did you put it in yet?
^^^That's what she said!:p
Yep.. place it this morning, it feels smoother on the high ends ... it would be nice to make a real dyno test with one of these.
I'll make some runs tomorrow with it to pay attention on the difference and return to the stock one before my reflash Monday or Tuesday...and re-run...
PDXEvo 04-24-2008, 02:56 AM Ralliart parts do not void your warranty. Its like getting Dinan parts for a BMW. They are Mitsubishi approved parts.
ITSEI 04-24-2008, 04:41 AM from my experience
i've used it on both evo 8 and 9..
ralliart sports filter give you little more air flow and quicker response..
it will do the same on evo 10..
and the foam type worked better than the flat panel one..
on2it 04-24-2008, 06:27 AM Ralliart parts do not void your warranty. Its like getting Dinan parts for a BMW. They are Mitsubishi approved parts.
yep thats what I'd expect also, my point being get it cleared with your dealer rather than assume that it will not. (since they will be the ones 'actioning' any warrentee service :)
I guess from the post above.. your particular dealer has ok'ed so .. all good!:rock:
EvoXRacer 04-24-2008, 08:28 PM I want one!!! but i cant find one :wallbash:
Griffy44 05-01-2008, 12:39 PM What is the maintence on the Ralliart Drop in air filter. Do you have to be re oil it, replace it or just knock the dirt out like a dirty floor mats??
seph09 05-01-2008, 06:17 PM ^instructions are in Japanese... might need to search the net for that...
c4dm4n 05-01-2008, 07:04 PM yep thats what I'd expect also, my point being get it cleared with your dealer rather than assume that it will not. (since they will be the ones 'actioning' any warrentee service :)

I hope my service delaers understand that, becasue ALL of them has said it will void my warranty. But they are a bunch of morons I know that:shades:. They say ralliart are perfromane parts and even when mitsubishi still void your warranty, now how stupid is that...:p.
TriStateEvo 05-02-2008, 04:46 AM The Ralliart drop in filter seems pretty pricey for a throw-away filter. For almost 1/3 the price, I'd much rather go with an HKS drop in.
MooseX 05-02-2008, 05:42 AM ^ over a 100 bucks cheeper. You can buy 3 HKS' and still have $$ left over:rock:..I'm seriously thinking of going with an HKS' for awhile
redmachine 05-02-2008, 01:52 PM yea but what about gains?---wich one has the best gains?
MooseX 05-02-2008, 02:38 PM no matter IMO no drop in is worth 140 bucks. For that price I can get a decent downpipe or with a little more $ a test pipe
