EVO longblock weakness???
OK guys Im prolly gonna be joining the EVO master race here soon. I will be buying an EVO for my daily driver. My question is what is the weak point of the long block. What will I have to replace to get over 550whp. So far I am thinking I want to just do bolt ons and see where that gets me. What are some of the higher HP stock longblock guys running for turbos?
I'm guessing you're coming from the mr2 world? I had an 93 MR2 turbo before the Evo. It was mostly stock though with a few boltons. The evo block is pretty stout. I have made over 550whp on my stock bottom end with upgraded cams, etc. I wouldn't push it much more than that though. Good luck. Evo is a fun car, but the tranny could be better.
