Before You Buy an Evo X!

They are clean, simple, and agressive all at the same time.

Mid 400 stock 😂
Been making 550whp for 6 years on a 15 year old factory engine with over 100k 😂😂😂

I ran a mid 10 on a high mileage stock block. Stock transmission and t-case too with high mileage.. all while retaining AC and seat warmers lol. These cars are amazing if you know what you’re doing

I have to say that the X is by far my favorite generation. It's actually one of my dream builds so I'm really partial to it

The 4B11T does not deserve the hate it gets.

Love to see them. Keep them clean and alive.

I sold Mitsubishi’s when this car hit the market, the 8 and 9 were big releases too, especially with all the kids who couldn’t afford one and wanted to test drive them. While I love all the EVO’s there’s no arguing the 4G’s reputation, the X was something truly new. All the other Evo’s were pretty much the same car that just kept, “evolving” lol. The X was a really new car. There were some slight teething issues with the MR’s auto clutch transmission but it was resolved pretty quickly. Back when the X came out there were maybe 3 other cars with a similar transmission. They guys who actually drive their 8’ and 9’ would almost always go for the GSR, which made sense, especially in the beginning because nobody had a clue how to work with the auto clutch transmission. The MR brought a lot of new customers to Mitsubishi, we got vetts, bmw’s, one NSX, and a few MB and quite a few Audi’s traded in for an MR. Do think it’s a brilliant car and just like the GTO/3000GTVR4 it was a little ahead of it’s time. Now everyone has a auto clutch, toque vectoring rear diffs and variable torque split center diffs. The X drove like a much higher end car, especially if you compared it to the 9’s and below.

There was an awd turbo lancer with the auto clutch that sold for a lot less than the EVO, it was the Lancer Ralliart. In past generations the Ralliart was just an appearance package but the last generation they made a banger. You get a Turbo, AWD, and their awesome dual clutch transmission with paddle shifters. These days that kind of stuff is pretty common but back then not only was it 10-15k cheaper than an EVO X there were only a couple other cars with a similar drivetrain, especially that transmission which was and is an awesome piece of hardware. I keep looking for one of those cars to buy.

I had an Evo 10 and I can say that he is definitely correct if you start modding that it can fuck with some shit to keep it stuck it will definitely hold out

[kyles]

As a WRX owner, I wish they still made these id love to add one to my collection !!

[Curlyheadrae]

Evo X can make like 600whp on stock internals, I have 2 friends that’s are pushing that on stock, and devin nimela made 800whp on stock engine.

[brainrott]

Fine, I'll look again on the FB marketplace.

[lcameeno]

Lol making 600whp stock block for 2 years reving it to 8k smacking limiter and before that i was making 410 stock turbo and stock cams 🥶 still no issues besides clutches 😂

[nghiapham]

I crashed my evo x up in the mountain because I didn’t think too much about the AVC pump. Def take your time on the build frfr before taking it up in the mountais

[dreadhavoc]

crazy to think this car intrigued me so much when i first met eyes with it in nfs hot pursuit 2010 💀💀💀

[williamdunn]

Fun Fact. In 2015 Subaru released an EVO 11

I’m a lancer bro so I put this comment here for educational purposes. I have unsubscribed to fitment industries. I have subscribed to Martiniworks. Any comments?

[ItsSpecialOps]

My evo x makes 530whp conpletely stock motor without breaking a sweat

[AndorRadnai]

AWD Brick!? This confirms my thesis that the Evo X and the Volvo S60 R are logical competitors when done as street builds.

[anggieseptiandewanto]

this is why I prefer an Evo 9...

older, but the engine is much friendlier to custom and stock bodykit are the legacy of Evo (Evo X on top of using a completely new engine compared to past generations, its body aren't designed by the original evo development teams... just like latest gen of Supra that made by BMW)
