No. It would be much cheaper to buy an X.

You must not have read about the Lancer RA. Wouldn't it be more logical to buy that instead? At least with that car you'd have factory turbo.

And don't say you can't afford the RA, because if you can afford what it would cost to tranform a lancer, you could afford a BMW 7-Series.

Just get the evo body kit and wheels and tell everyone it's an evo. Just don't ever race anyone. It will be cheaper that way.

They're not built on the same chassis, so you're going to run into problems there. The AWD system probably will not fit with ease and you're gonna have a hell of a time getting it in. I truthfully think the answer is no, you could make a Lancer with an AWD 4B11T, but it's still not gonna be an Evo X.

You SURE it's not the same chassis, Cown Town? Because I'm equally sure it is.

I believe the evo x is built off of the base lancer chassis but it is definately not the same. The evo chassis is much stiffer.
