If you are going to be taking it on desert roads the last thing I would want on the car are lowering springs... Just a thought

 

You seem like a mature guy with a good head on your shoulders..... always a plus. Congrats on the car and I know the wait is killing you




+1.... my first thoughts exactly.

As for mileage I'm sure you can find plenty of threads. I think the best I ever got was 302 on a tank of gas..... of course this was with the light being on for a few miles before I reached the gas station... and no boosting... lol

 

Congrats on your new Evo. You will love the car as everyone already said so. I also agree with others, as long as you keep up with the maintenance there should be no problems. I wouldn't worry about the mileage. I personally think that 60K is not much for 4G63 motor even if it was "drive hard" every now and then.

There's always an option later down the road: pull the motor, rebuild and upgrade and keep flying over again.

 

thanks everyone for your replies im actually even more excited now haha.
Also when i said desert roads i mean soft dirt no rocks or bumps should i still have a problem with lowered springs?

 

welcome and good luck with the car...just dont wreck it..

 

Make sure all proper maintenance has been done. All fluids (oil, t-case, tranny, rear diff., etc.), belts (timing, etc.) Any service records come with it? Plan on spending a little bit of $$$ to be safe instead of sorry. Other than that, have fun and be safe.

 

nice to see some action in el paso where are you located?

 

congrats...you are on a slippery slope now!
cheers
