I would like to see the drivetrain. The angle of the motor looks wierd. Like its point low in the rear. I love the idea, but there will be no way it will be awd. Only way would be a 4wd transfer case and that would have to raise the engine up. Either nice to see something original.

Sadly I have to agree. You just took the EVO spirit away.

Good job on being original and good luck on converting it to AWD. Will the AWD system be from an Evo 7, or from some other Evo?

It would be nice if the Evo came stock with a twin turbo V8.

Its bad ***. Performance wise a built 4G has nothing on a built v8.
On PUMP it will make over 600whp no problem with 80 percent
of the peak torque coming on way under 2 grand. Grow up
and stop hating.

Exactly. There is no replacement for displacement.More is always better.

That right there is a complete waste of time and money. It takes away from what the car's suppose to be. But to each his own I guess.
