if you can get a master welder, mechanic, fabricator, and import the drivetrain from a lancer GSR(non-evo), then MAYBE....

run a search... if it were easy to do, someone would have one already.

Yes....if you have enough money. Any qualified shop could do it IF they got enough money to do it.

getting the GSR drivetrain would just make it easier. converting the GSX or Evo drivetrain to work with our engines would just be adding the headaches on.

I'm not trying to be a d*ck, but this could have been searched. It seems people ask it about once every 6 months. Here's the jist of the other threads:

You can do just about anything with enough $$$, but you would spend a lot less to just buy a brand new Evo, and you'd have more hp anyway.
