How much does it cost to tune a Mitsubishi Lancer ES?
My friend is a semi-professional racer, and he was telling me about all the modifications he made to his vehicle. It sounds really cool and I’d love to tune my Mitsubishi Lancer ES, but my friend has spent thousands of dollars on his car. How much would it cost to tune my Lancer if I just wanted a little extra power?

A professional tuning can cost anywhere from $250 for a small boost to well over $10,000 if you’re modifying your Mitsubishi Lancer ES for racing. Tuning is typically done in stages, with stages 3 and 4 usually reserved for racing.
Here’s a look at the tuning stages and prices:
- Stage 1—$250-$600: this stage will add a chip tune and an upgraded air filter
- Stage 2—$475-$950: uses all stage 1 modifications and adds an upgraded exhaust system
- Stage 3—$1,200-$4,000: this stage takes everything from stages 1 and 2 and adds on some extensive engine upgrades
- Stage 4—$1,200-$4,000: all the modifications from previous stages plus an upgraded turbocharger, dump valve, and injectors
If you want to give your car a boost, stage 1 or 2 tuning is a great place to start. And if you’re upgrading your ride, make sure you upgrade your car insurance to match. With Jerry, you can compare policies from top companies to get the best rates.
