Is over 80 healthy?
nice one 
Yeah I know ONE evo in town that's got over 100K miles on stick clutch. But he drives like an old lady and really takes care of it. It's still running, and more importantly, looking new!
I took my engine apart at 75K and the rod-caps look amazing even with 30 PSI spikes since 15K miles (Stock turbo + Meth).
And the rule applies - taking care of it and it wil llast a good long while. If you let idiots fool with it it will break.

i have an 05 with 107,000 miles. been moderately moded since 20,000. and i drive it like it was meant to be. drag strip half a dozen times a year. till runs like new. stock clutch and everything.
so if you take care of it you should be fine.

huh? lol, i got 68k on mine, did clutch change when the car hit 46k, just because i went with bigger Turbo. No problems! go figure.
btw, as far evo? it is not a luxury car, i.e bmw.audi.benz.
It is AWD car, handles like gocart, it will make noises here and there. You have to make a decision what fits you the best.

To make a long story short, I spoke with a mechanic that has been good friends with my family for a long while. I'm in the market for an Evo and he told me after 80k miles you start to hear noises and you have real problems with Mitsubishi.
Any input from people would be very much appreciated. I plan on keeping this car for a while...even after 80k miles.
