I guess they didn't have the Airtrek Turbo in the US? If you can get one it is a direct swap into an outlander.

There has to be a dodgy way to get an Airtrek in. I know of ways people do it in NZ, such as a fire wall swap. Highly illegal, but am quite surprised how common it is when looking to buy a race car. Every Evo 1-3 I've looked at is unable to legally be driven on the road, or its chassis name says its a Lancer MX CB3A or something, 1500cc etc.

This is an AWD Outlander and is non turbo right now. It will be turbocharged in the next few months though, then things will get silly. An Evo swap in this is pretty straightforward, drop the head on it, change injector plugs to something normal, add boost + tune, go fast

Correct. Everything you would need with the Evo head and then modded water pump, you'd need to change the injector plugs to whatever you want to switch to of course.
I richened it up to a 12.0 after that and it lost power. It ended up leaving at an 11.8 making the same power. The stock ECU in the 3G definitely doesnt work like an Evo computer.

So the trans is out to get the race build that I have and Andrew has for our Evos, Manual swap is going to be EVERYTHING Evo to make it work correctly. Nothing is simply just plug and play. Its close but not exact.
Our emphasis has switched to prepping the Drag Queen as Jeff calls it now (the 8.3 second Eclipse), getting the tune sorted with the new combo and then switching it over to the AEM Series 2 box we have for it this year. The Evolander probably wont see any love for another month or so.
