well id say get the evo 7 kit since well ur basically an evo or jus get the lip kit for ur car and get ther rmr type 1 front lip and coilovers i had that set up for a while before i sold my car everyone liked it. theres pics in my gallery if u wanna see

 

hes got an 04 es so none of the 03 kits will fit.

 

So wait, I read somewhere through this plethora of comments that you can use the Evo IV 4G63 on the Lancer's... is that right?
If I were to do an Evo Swap do I need a whole new Tranny too?

What are the requirements to do this swap, can you tell us, perhaps make a shopping list...? I really wanna understand this, cus Ive heard this and that and yadda yadda yadda, but seeing is believing ...unless youre doin' shrooms.

ok, the shop he got it done at said they can get an evo 4-8 engine to put in the car. They also upgrade the tranny to handle the bigger engine. it costs more to go AWD. the $12000 covered everything needed to get this project done. i would get you the website but i forgot it and dont feel like going back through this thread to find it. i think its somewhere at the beginning, and you can contact them to ask all questions about what was needed i think

 

htturbotech.com is the site and the car is still handling perfectly

 

done anything further with the engine? or dyno?

 

not waiting till jan or feb to save up enught money next step is disc brakes front and rear and tein coilovers

 

if u go with the wilwood disc brakes im selling my whole set... front and also rear conversion

 

u have rear?? PM me details pls thanks!!

 

yes ... its the one from Kontradictions then passed down to QtLancer then me. i was in the middle of installing the front but then i just gave up on the whole project.

 

nice..but its sad... still FWD.....

 

um no its not sad. fwd can be good thing. not as big of a loss of power to the wheels.

 

naw man.. its not even that.. awd is soo much better in all aspects..swaping an evo engine and not finishing it up with awd.. its like u have 300 hp civic..fwd.. i mean.. its a very nice acomplishment.. but not havign awd and an evo engine is the same as a boosted fwd car.. about tha power loss thing.. if ur making decent power.. its doesnt really make that much of a difrence..besides if its made for it.. power loss would be soo lil u wont feel it.. goin from fwd to awd.. i say awd is far superior.. and its reality..

 

ok, if you think thats reality, i hate to say it but, that's why i see evos get beat daily by srt4s. yeah evos and subies can launch quicker, but on the highway, awd really isnt that great with it.

 

i rather have his lancer than yours.
