Evo X is the best Evo period
Definitely agree , holds 600whp with no issues on stock block.
Highly disagree. Evo 8/9 is the best. Evo x is perfect daily driver. I have both in my garage and I daily the x. Autocross/track is definitely my Evo 8
@@G30_Jay The 4B11t is a much better engine in every single way, except its ability to hold more than 1200hp for drag racing scenarios. The Evo X 5 speed is much stronger than the Evo 9 5 speed. The Evo X AWD system is much more advanced with a stronger rear diff than the Evo 9. The chassis is much stiffer, safer, and more aerodynamic on the Evo X. Parts availability and support are also more and going to exist for longer as there were more X's made and more recently, the X will never die. The Evolution stayed true to its name, every generation was better than the previous. I have a Evo X built for Group N rally, and I wouldnt consider another car as the Evo X is stupid reliable around 350hp, you cant break it, also daily drive it in the Canadian winter and after relocating the AYC pump the Evo X is unbreakable, and the chassis refuses to rust since it was made of top tier steel, it is literally the best vehicle ever made in my eyes.
Videos like this makes me want to keep my Evo even more !
Keep it forever pal, I’ll never get rid of my Everett. He’s a good boy.
been shopping for other cars to trade up my evo x. dont think i can do it.
@@PauL-nw6vj I hear on that , I rather add another project
Sold my evo 8 in 2013. Got the X a month ago. I’m never selling her. I’ll drop in a new engine and tranny when needed
Naw sell it to me 😩😭
Reliable tuner. Handles amazing for the price. Not many people talk about the handling enough. Only about power and going in a straight line.
We love getting our Evo X on the track! Should be getting a whole lot more seat time this summer!
The biggest con for the EVO is U -turns
FACTS
Big facks lmao
lmaoo fr!
On god
I felt this 😂
I might be a little new to the Evo world and all, but I wouldn't mind seeing a video on the major failing points on these cars and what to look for and be aware of when owning one.
Great work as always, keep grinding my friends!
AWC pump
Exhaust manifold
Oil leaks from oil pan and timing cover
Rear diffs have shown weakness from people launching and over abuse
@@pablotorres7206 transfercase, stock clutch above 500.
@@LeaningGumby I haven’t heard of transfer cases going bad. That’s a first
@@pablotorres7206 all on the forums...death whine you get from tcase
@@LeaningGumby probably from the repeateded cases of people who don't know how to launch the car or just launchign the car itself. I beat the shit out of my car the last 7 years in -40c weather and tcase doesn't whine.
These guys been hooking me up with the best parts for the best prices! def look into them!
MAP amazing staff got a lot of knowledge and they always had the order at my door in just 2 days of buying them most of the times . 💪🙏🙏
The More Evo X videos The better there's never enough to learn especially from MAPperformance Love your guys a stuff keep up the good work And thank you for the master cylinder upgrade.😏👍
Much appreciated! More to come for sure!
Great content guys! Keep us updated on the new products for the platform. 😉
As a former Ralliart X owner, I am surprised you didn't talk about the infamous TC-SST and its shortcomings.
I have a 2011 300 SST which has been turned to 385bhp (UK rolling road tune), 3 port boost controller and 200 cel sports cat. I have 3 kids and use it for work. Amazing car. Only weakness is the sst trans which was rebuilt with uprated clutch pack and shift fork 4 upgrade.
AYC pump, And the clutch job are huge cons. Other than that my X has been awesome. Making almost 400whp and it makes me smile all the time.
Mitsubishi might let us down, but MAP has our backs ❤
The Evo X isn’t 400lbs heavier than the Evo IX. The Evo X GSR 5spd manual is 1565kg or 3450lbs. The Evo IX is 1470kg or 3240lbs. 200 pound difference, you guys are way off.
They may also be adding my fat carcass 😹😹
The hardest part for me, is that good performance shops like these are considered international for me. I wish there were more Shops like this in Trinidad.
*cough* AYC PUMP! :P
Ive replaced that thing a few times before it ran out it's extra warranty. I installed a new pump in my trunk after the last one died. MAP, consider selling relocation kits if you don't already. The process to relocate it is pretty easy and us fans up north here really need them if we want to drive on our cars in the winter :)
I worked for a Mistu dealership for a while. After about 4 months there, a dude came in with his 03 Evo 8 looking to trade in for a brand new 12 Evo X. So after some obsessed pestering, I got my boss to sell me the car for about 2k over his trade value. I did a little work on the car, got it tuned, and was able to have a DD Evo 8 making around 330whp on stock internals. As much as I loved that car, we came on some hard times in the next year and I ended up selling it since it was a second vehicle that my wife never drove. Unfortunately, it was only about 2 months later before I began making good money and the dude that bought it wasn't keen on selling it back (which I totally understand.)
Fast forward about 12 years later and suddenly I'm looking for another manual, turbo, AWD car. And since the STI is hard to find in decent condition without needing an engine rebuild, I'm right back to looking at another Evo. I've got my fingers crossed and prayer beads ready...
Love you guys ❤️
Nice video! As for modding, I've already bought a few parts from MAPerformance and love them! Open dump downpipe screams down the road when wide open throttle, lol. Aiming for 500whp right now.
That's awesome! Thanks for the support!
Good in depth stuff 👌🏾
Thanks! More content coming soon! 🙌🏻
I currently drive a 2021 STI. Previous car was a 2019 STI. But back in 2006 I bought a brand new EVO IX GSR. It was full bolt-ons plus tuned. Owned it for several years then sold it.
would you buy a evo x over a 2021 STI?
Got the Ralliart love it still saving for bolt on kit and a new twin clutch 🤘🏼
Love your products. Very well made, durable & priced better than other big brands out there. I hope y'all don't stop shipping to CA with all the smog compliance bs going on... I got a handful of parts on a waiting list to purchase to get me to my goals 🙌
Thanks for the kind words! We have no plans to stop serving our CA customers!
@@maperformance Nice! Thank goodness. Just put an order in. Will be ordering more within the following months to come.
I just got $2000 worth of parts from u guys today. Super excited to see my baby on fbo with tune soon. Btw.. I got those parts 1 day earlier than expected! Kudos guys.
That's what we like to hear! 💪🏻
Evo 8/9 = go-kart, more racecar like . Evo x = livable performance
“Big trunk” ya got me there
Would love to see one of your MA EVO 8/9/10 long blocks built and installed into a car! More of a serious build not just simple everyday bolt on stuff. That probably most of us here watching have done on multiple cars We’ve owned. Something more technical and immersive. Pull the motor, trans, Tcase, everything show how it’s done with so what basic tools then build the new block swap over everything then put it all back together! Some real deal getting your hands dirty, busting knuckles kinds build!! There’s so many channels that just do bolt on’s then call it a day. What happens when your big turbo bolt on, blows a hole 🕳 in the side of your block and you need to figure out how to change your motor! Let me see the real magic happen!!
Thank you for the suggestion! We have bigger build plans cookin' in the near future!
I Have only owned Subarus and Have loved them No problems Except little stuff (Yet) have popped up. But always loved the Evo's and the X's were always my "If I want a Evo" Kinda Car. Mitsubishi makes amazing cars and It seems with great reliability and tons of Aftermarket support.! I love the Evos and Hope to have one, One day next to my 14 STi!
Right on!
I had an Evo X and two 8s (RS &MR) and now a 9! I prefer the 8/9 because it's lighter and more nimble!
Boutta drive my evo x to work 😎
What do you see the future value of the Evo 5/X
And JDM turbo sports cars?
Seems like everything is skyrocketing
Good luck buying a nice evo 8 or 9 without paying 45 grand, I’ll never sell mine I’m glad I bought it 5 years ago the value has gone up almost exponentially. What a dream smasher no wonder why the kids are driving subarus (grenade on wheels) ;)
Thanks for tha video.
Our secondary family car is a Evo X 2011. We absolute love it. We drive it all year around in northern Scandinavia. I just wish it could fit 17" or even 16" wheels for the winter season. Great video!
Very nice!
just picked up my evo X last week! excited to mod it
We can definitely help with that! 😉
how’s maintenance been so far?
What's the highest mileage Evo X here? Stock and Modified. Just wondering🤔
Looking to buy an evo X? Pros and cons? It will be my first evo coming from subarus. Anything I need to know
Making me want to keep mine ♥️
Don't let it go!!
PLEASE PLEASE MOVE TO MARYLAND!!!! ALSO STILL WAITING FOR MY BOV! THAT BACKORDER IS MAKING ME TWITCH SO I CAN START MY TURBO UPGRADE. GOTTA GET THESE BOXES OUT OF MY BEDROOM
I’ll get an Evo X one day, for now I’m happy with my Si though
Si's are great! We make a TON of parts for them too!
Imagine making evo content and not having the tomei exhaust in stock 😩
+10 to this guys! Awesome to chat with. Fast shipping also.
Thanks for the kind words!
Does ma sell stock maf housing for evo x?
The clutch job…
Yea, pain in the ass
If you have ever been in an evo x specifically the cloth seats like 2013 year is they are EXTREMELY COMFORTABLE like softest seats ever like I would rather sit in evo seats than a 100k BMW. Big race car too with like doors being very light and performance oriented.
So.morning have
What about the cons of the 6speed sst?
Aww, was hoping to hear more about the 5spd/Auto trans failures at power levels... there's so many debates on those in the Evo X forums. Would love to know your experience with them!
It's not the horse power you have to worry about. That would be a torque related question. Plenty of built, high whp X's running stock 5sp's. A huge part of if it will last or not is the tune. If your tuner is ramping in peak torque early in the RPM range than your trans won't last. The X 5sp is pretty well built from the factory.
@@CO_EVO_8 What about the Auto (TC-SST) in the MR? Can that be built or not worth?
@@q2subzero Kozmic Motorsports is the go to for built SST's. I mean I'd say it's worth it. Way pricier than building the 5sp though. Check out their site.
@@CO_EVO_8 reason i ask about the SST's are becase they're known for fast shifting. which is what i'm looking for. I've had so many miss-shifts i'm starting to think about auto's again.
@@q2subzero there are a few quirks with the SST. Once built they are awesome. 350wtq is the max on the stock SST.
Big trunk? I don’t know what evo ur driving but mine has a tiny trunk and the back seats don’t fold down, I hate the trunk
Evooooooo!!!
Cause it looks sexy as stock already. Saved ya 11 mins there.
I’m in the market for a Evo X right now but I’m pulled to both side the GSR because it’s manual but it’s has a 5spd and it comes very basic but the MR especially the SSL or the Sunroof Sound and leather trim only comes in the MR and it’s automatic but it is a 6spd so idk which one I want especially because I just got my wife a 2022 outlander S-AWD SEL Special Edition I want to feel the leather seat in my interior too on the Evo I get .
The manuals are much more robust than the sst equipped cars, but if you want leather bad enough you can go for it!
Should have mentioned the fuel pump relays. And the SST vs 5 speed. Also can i get a promo code? Lol
So while this video was probably uploading, I was doing the manifold-off thing on my Ralliart. I also noticed you didn't touch the *SST subject....needs a whole video...
Hey I have a Evo x if I want to put a intake and the downpipe to i need to take it for a tune or it's not necessary.?
We would recommend a tune with those mods, but it isn't absolutely necessary to drive the car.
Are the Evo X parts compatable with other models of the Lancer?
Yes! Many Evo parts can be installed, but give us a call at 651-348-8811 before you order to make sure! 👍🏻
Instal video on the your new evo x quick connect clutch master cylinder.
Working on it! In the meantime here is the link to our install instructions! cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0890/6136/files/EVOX-CMC_REV3.pdf?v=1618324548
so you want to mod your wrx sti ??? 2015+ ???
money hunt if ya get it ya get it
Les evo sont des machine de guerre dans les deux sans du terme puisque mistubychi etait la marque qui fabriqué les zero de la seconde guerre mondial et aujourd'hui encore elle déchire grave
Maperformance make a billet shifter for evo x
2:33 bike fits
The mr is a 6 speed also
Only Con I think you forgot is that stupid Ayc pump lol I had to buy the kit to put it in the trunk to prevent it from failing sooner
Great video, but fit a bike in the trunk? Yeahhh not happening unless ya tear it apart.
Maybe Daelen was thinking about the big wheel trike he rides around the warehouse? 🤣
Whose car is the thumbnail?
Civic Type R video?
Evo lancer forever.
Do yo guys do tuning as well?
We do not offer custom tunes at this time, sorry!
id love to buy stuff from map but the shipping to canada is just outrageous
@@darekm6859 I wanted to buy rear diff bushing, shipping was like $45 USD!
👍🏻
Modifying a base model lancer ..... would love to hear a reliable source talk about the base model lancers
Quick answer: don’t
@@ruskibruski why not
😂 not a great idea base model not made for great boost just get a cheap 08 evo
@@currythegoatofmankindthepa5156 not great on a stock block but with the proper mods it's a nice fwd platform
I'm running a stock block at the moment what's the best stock frame turbo to replace the stock turbo with? Garret turbo preferred thanks. I have a hyper tune manifold and tomei down pipe and an invidia N1 dual exit cat back system with a hyperflow race pipe at the moment running flex fuel with walbro 460 pump and ID 1300x injectors. Currently on Premium it's making 308HP and 348HP on E85
Any suggestions would be appreciated thanks.
i just picked up a 3576r its one of the best imo
@@MikusGG Yes I have a gen 1 3576r and my mechanic doesn't recommend that I put it on my stock motor
@@steljax9630 im stock motor.. if he knows what hes doing he wouldnt say that lol our motors can handle around 500 hp stock but keep torque under 400.. you def should build the motor but its not that much of a risk
@@MikusGG That's the exact thing I said to him.He didn't want to hear it.
The SST can be a con.
Evos... discontinued due to... what exactly?
Official answer: As efficiency and versatility became increasingly important to consumers, Mitsubishi decided to focus their efforts on crossover vehicles and electric or hybrid cars in order to meet customer demand.
which in my book is BS....
They are certainly a shell of what they once were! 😔 They did recently announce they plan to bring back the Ralliart brand... so maybe something cool will come through the cracks soon! 🙏🏻
🤙🏻🔰
“BIG trunk” has this guy seen an Evo X? Lmao
modify all you will but my 2015 Evo MR will forever be stock so it's value keeps going up like is has been. over 10k more then what i payed so far :) hope they never make another evo
Bring back the evo
If you can't afford Evo x, buy a lancer and boosted it(only 5 speed manaul tho)
Umm, SRT-4. Thoughts?
While a great platform for cheap power and handling, we don't have much experience with those cars! There is a ton of aftermarket support for them and we have a fair amount of parts for them on our website!
Another Con you forgot is the Clutch master cylinder is cheap plastic and breaks alot with aftermarket clutches.
Man sucks when you lived in California . I want to buy engine mods but i cant do shet. All i can do exterior mods😪.
Yall think I should pull the trigger on a 2015 evox final edition with 500 miles for 59k
That is quite the unicorn, but damn $59K! If you want to drive it we would suggest a different example!
Aww I have a 2.0 lancer 2017 lol
PO304 Evo X
I daily a lancer and I really want an evo. Unfortunately I can’t afford it.
what year lancer? any problems with it?
@@merf500 I had a 2011 lancer. My mom was the original owner and he had it for years until she gave the car to me around 2017. The car had no problem what so ever. She took good care of it
Evo x trunk spacr sucks ass...i could barely fit anything in mines
Agreed!
Did he say big trunk....??
I want a evo so bad. I wouldn’t care if it was from 08 😂
i am thinking of selling my 2012 gsr
Big trunk..😂😂😂 yea I don’t know bout that
Love Evo's but how about an STi video?
Lmaoo
Bruh I have an sti but want an evo as a second car lol
@@treblemix_ me too!
I want to have an EVO X but yeah, I am 16 years old :c
I'll never afford that masterpiece
So here’s the real question GSR or MR
Gsr. The Mr only has paddle shift
Every now and then I see a hapless MR owner weeping at the dealership. The service manager says I won't believe how much it costs to fix an SST.
@@GotCatAtHome for sure me when my MR transmission went out, lasted me 5 years
Wanna build an evo? If u ever wanna make more than 550hp save your money on bolt on parts unless your getting a bigger stock frame turbo and just buy a kit. Boom.
bagus
Me: Im not that old Him: What ever the kids do these days Me: Im old
Evo x
So i did fit a bike in mine once... Not recommended.
Lol speak for yourself, I sat ON the seat of a evo X I test drive today 😆
Do a subie video now
