I daily an Evo 9, and I wave to the Subaru guys cause they're pretty much in the same club. As for feeling entitled when owning an Evo, let me just say this, there's nothing more satisfying than dropping $5-10k on parts and being able to walk Ferraris and Lambos. The reactions are priceless from exotic owners ;)

[@joemomma7161]

AMC PRODUCTIONS what? How is 5-10k allowing u to walk Ferraris and lambos? What setup are you talking about that cost that much that will compete with a Ferrari? I own a 2014 evo x gsr and have gotten multiple quotes. Some exceeding 10k and none of them will allow me to touch a ferarri

That86guy Patrick it’s just not worth the investment for me. Especially because I’m in Cali! They are strict on modded turbo cars here. You can slap on super chargers on v8s no problem here. But they really don’t like turbo cars here. It’s funny how I ended up with another turbo car though. My 2019 ford raptor supercrew gets the fuck up and goes baby. 0-60 in 5.1 seconds and it’s heavy. Now those turbos go to work. I’m just gonna get the gt500. Either 2020 or 2021 once I can get one for MSRP here in Cali.

[@HumanDevilTV]

The 4G63t is such a fun motor to work and drive with. That's why the Evo IX will always be my favourite. Without a doubt, an Evo is an awesome car, yet really demanding in care and service. If you give it the love it deserves, it'll repay you with probably the most fun you'll ever have in a driver's seat.

[@joshuacampagna1175]

Owned my 05 evo 8 for over a year now and I haven't touched it from stock yet. Would I like to do stuff to it, sure, but right now it's great the way it is. Only issue I have is other people either they want to race, don't believe it's stock, ask me to light up my tires like they don't know what AWD is, or 2-step every stop light. It gets old but driving it will never not bring a smile to my face.

[@felixf5211]

That's smart. If you eventually decide to uncork the motor, you'll need the following: a boost controller, a turbo back exhaust, the diverter valve from the IX, a fuel pump, and a tune. The quality of the tune is cruicial. Done fight, the car runs better than stock. Good luck.

[@eppyz]

I've owned 4 Evo's over the years that I was fortunate enough to be able to buy new my first one was a 2003 evo 8 I had a 2006 Evo 9 I had a 2006 Evo 9 Mr and I had a 2012 Evo 10 GSR. In those days I bought and sold cars allot. Learn from my mistakes and don't do that. out of the four that I did have the one I kept the longest was my Evo 9 Mr I had that one for a five and a half years it was mildly modified made 340 all wheel horsepower and I daily drove it like that for over 5 years and never had a problem I ended up selling it 5 and 1/2 years later for what I paid for it new and it is the one car out of all the ones I've had that I miss the most. the only downside to owning an EVO was the police interaction I got pulled over by the police quite often for no reason at all. It usually would go something like this... "oh we got reports of a car that matches this description street racing"... Which was a lie but I would get that alot and after awhile it just gets old. additionally I would always get people that would get right on my rear end of my car as I drove it trying to get me to go faster all the time because they wanted to see me gun it or race them and after a while that gets old... so they are great cars would love to get another one.... but at this point in my life I just don't want the drama that kind of comes with them... it's unfortunate because they are a great cars👍

@@jif4639 I like the sound of the 8 better. After I did the weight reduction, full Whiteline and full Power Flex bushing upgrades, and a set of Fortune Auto 500 Gen 7/Swift Springs (9k/8/k) the Evo X really opened up as far as predictable oversteer that makes throttling through corners so satisfying.

[@skylinefever]

I will buy an Exo X. The reason I will buy it is because Mitsubishi isn't building another rally car, so I will own a piece of history. Also, I will never have to think "Damn, I wish I could afford this new one that just went on sale." There will not be anything like it in the future. I sometimes compared it to buying a Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo rather than a 350Z or 370Z, since Nissan never wanted to make a turbo Z car after the end of the 300ZXTT. 1:55 Yeah, sometimes we do get screwed. However, I have seen a few situations where the USA got something better. Japan has a car tax based on engine size, and that often encouraged the use of smaller engines. When Datsun 240Z went on sale in the USA, it had a 2.4L SOHC inline 6. In Japan, the base version called the S30 Fairlady went on sale, the basic one had a 2.0L SOHC inline 6 or it had an insanely expensive 2.0L DOHC 6 which doubled the price of the car. The 1985 Nissan Maxima was a piece of crap and was sold in the USA with a 3.0L NA V6 that was crammed in the engine bay. It rapidly scorched many parts to death sue to that problem. However, in order to have the same horsepower and a competitive price in Japan, they crammed a 2.0L V6 turbo engine that must have scorched everything twice as fast. 2:30 In addition, they were featured in video games. 3:10 The 1995-1999 Eclipse also had a 4G63T, and there wall all kinds of jokes about "crankwalk." I think the Evo eventually solved the problem. 3:10 Since the 4B11T wasn't trouble prone, I never had a negative opinion about it. 4:10 Do remember that they take premium unleaded. Also, the 4G63T is affected by 91 octane gasoline, it is best to live where 93 octane exists. 7:35 It tends to happen where there is road salt. Also, some companies do make rebuild kits. However, that doesn't make me hate that the Nissan Silvia got completely nerfed for sale in the USA, and certain versions of the GT-R never arrived. Anyway, there is an option if people who feel the Evo or WRX is too hardcore, they can look into getting a Volkswagen Golf R. The suspension is less stiff, the interior is a little more refined, and delivery of turbo boost is less sudden. The Golf R32 used an NA engine, and that may be preferable to some drivers. I'm not sure how repair costs compare to a Mitsubishi or Subaru. Typically when someone discusses reliability and ease of repair of Japanese cars, they are pointing to Honda or Toyota.

[@theblakeslees7065]

I dunno why Evos get a bad wrap for being unreliable or finicky, I have never had any issues with mine that I didn’t cause myself

[@kmaark1551]

Because when you start pushing over 500whp they get to be unreliable. If you stay 500 and under you should be good. “Stock block”

[@terranceblount5959]

If one is going to mod, mod it right! A lot of people don’t know how expensive Evo’s are; they are certainly high maintenance every 30k or tires if you keep the stock ones at that. And that’s just factory maintenance.

[@theblakeslees7065]

Evos are expensive but I think pretty well any car that you double the WHP on is going to have reliability issues, not just evos; it's probably just easier on evos to crank up the HP without adding needed supported mods. I've had mine at about 400 WHP for the last 3 years I've owned it and never really had an issue

Just found this channel and binged tonnes, really likeable presenter!

[@FitmentIndustries]

Hey thanks! Welcome to the channel!🙌

[@MattIsBored322]

the sti thing is super accurate, money shifted behind one once and got a quick peace sign out his window. ended up racing him all the way to where I work

[@jujuboi2302]

Evo over Sti for me anyyyy day 🤷🏽‍♂️

"Racecar- YY" Yup we need that on a T-shirt now. 😂

[@mitchbarber6456]

I gotta say that was all pretty awesome except for the bit about Evo owners looking down on RA and Lancer owners. Not to be a negative Nancy, and maybe it's because my previous car was an 05 RA, but I am always happy to wave and acknowledge any other Lancer on the road. Owning an Evo doesn't make me better than them, I just got lucky with a good job and found my dream car in good shape for a reasonable price. I wave to Subies, too! Most of the time, the drivers are happy to wave back. Gotta keep the love in the community, regardless of what you drive.

[@DragonEmpress19]

wow a review I actually understand, thanks! cant wait to shop for one 🥺 wish me luck!

[@HorsepowerTherapy2]

Did you get one?

[@lcameeno1]

Lol its funny cause the 4b11 has the same potential as a 4g63

[@stephen9944]

Josue Aguilar not according to those who never owned either aka net bros lol

[@lcameeno1]

@@stephen9944 exactly lol

[@_Jesus1221_]

Yeah bro I own an evo x and it’s a rocket ship lmfaoo big turbo ftw

[@lcameeno1]

@@_Jesus1221_ same lol, im 370whp and 380 torque on pump 93 stock turbo. Been making this power for over 3 years reliably

[@_Jesus1221_]

I’m running a big turbo on mine with 93 and I’m making 430 and only thing I’ve changed was the clutch but other than that she runs smoothly bro, apart from the turbo and exhaust manifold being a bitch to get to lol I love the 4b11

[@cat-em3mj]

Evos are reliable cars if you keep them stock which OF COURSE you wouldn't

[@infinity_5157]

cat just put a small turbo and inter cooler

[@tripledub0evoxgsr]

cat EVOS are reliable if you stay under 600whp on stock blk

[@Invader_Cyn]

This video made me miss my 03 Evo 8 !

[@jamestruong994]

The AYC is actually covered under warranty for 10 year 100k miles. The the MPG you put out is also incorrect. It's more like 13-15 MPG.

[@FitmentIndustries]

So we have heard!

When F&F focused on the cars 👍

[@kombobreakergc3783]

The V in Gran Turismo III was what got me into imports/evo's; you could buy it cheap, mod it to the gills, and beat the 2hr endurance race and win like 350k credits and a race car that you could sell. I've owned three evo's (2 8's and a X) and just bought a bone stock Evo V off the boat from Japan

[@kyokuslaps2411]

This was my first and always will be my main dream car

[@shahrozalijafri8816]

Active yaw control was in jdm versions since evo 4

[@soulgen3681]

1:14 i thought it's the mitsubishi lancer hotdog that looks so closer to the early generation of the evo

[@rdeh1678]

Love those evo's my daily is a mazdaspeed 6 but still love the racer boy image of the evo

[@NCzProdigy910]

Evo 8/9 can handle 450/500hp stock block and don’t act finicky with after market parts. Unless they’re typical cheap eBay but that’s any car

[@jmoz9305]

6:30 is too true. I had a 06 Lancer modded for 10 years abs not once did an evo notice me.

[@AlexPerez-mb9sp]

So you want a MR2 (insert snap oversteer joke here)

[@no_4259]

Alex Perez so you want to die

[@TheMycelliac]

I own a wrx since Mitsubishi decided it wasn't going to make anymore evos. I would kill for another limited edition run

[@R8Prototype]

Loving the Czero love here

[@MrJjburgess11]

Ayc pump is covered for 10 years or 100k miles . Evo X also don't weigh 3700. It's 3500lbs for the gsr. I think the MR is 3600 with a sunroof.

[@mhsalammahfuz9429]

The Evo is great car ❤️

[@EduardoReyes-up6zo]

I have a lightly modified lancer & this is so true, an evo owner can be right next to me at a stop light & just stare at the car in front 😂😭😭 (they always wearing shades & a snapback) lmao

[@FitmentIndustries]

😎😂

[@_Jesus1221_]

We just don’t like lancers that claim being evos, I don’t wear no snap back and no shades lmao but I respect people’s builds, but talking from an evo owners perspective, yeah it’s a trigger seeing a lancer with an evo wing lol.

[@EduardoReyes-up6zo]

Jesus Pulido “a lancer with an evo wing” 😂 dude an evo is a lancer, I totally get your point I mean you paid a lot more for it, it’s badass & it’s probably our goal (almost all lancer owners) to modify it like an evo or better but evos are literally well modified lancers. If I was to put the badge & the mods on mine, they are identical. The hat & the shades was just a little side joke 😂😂 it’s all love man i want me a badass evo one day. Peace ✌🏽

[@_Jesus1221_]

Eduardo Reyes yeah I guess lol, I mean a lancer evolution is more than just an upgraded lancer lol, different engine platform and trans and suspension all round, even the body panels are different. But yeah bro all love, it would be my goal too to have an evo once day and make a lancer more like an evo but I would never flex having an evo if I only had a lancer, I would never talk shit to another evo driver if I drove a lancer and I definitely wouldn’t be walking around and posting that I drive an evo when I didn’t if I had a lancer. I don’t mind lancer drivers at all, I have a few buddies who have them. It just bothers me when lancer drivers take it a step forward and flex having an evo or talk shit when they only have a lancer, speaking for evo drivers lol that pisses us off, but if you have a lancer and are humble, and not a poser, we should have no problem w you. We all had dreams of having an evo at some point, so all love bro!

[@NHSSHINOBI]

Yes finally!!! I want an evo so bad but, a base model lancer will do for now.

[@xrayted2506]

AppleBottemGs nothing wrong with that. I have an evo and I hate guys who look down on other Mitsubishi owners

[@derekpau064]

Pls do a "So you want a Snap Oversteer" I mean MR2

[@masonbrown7290]

U mean death trap

[@stephanemorera2386]

I own an EB evo ix and an 05 white sti. I love both cars. I will never sell either car. I have had both cars for 10 years. They are a classic style which will go down as classics. I’m rebuilding the sti right now hoping to make around 750 hp. Can’t wait to unleash that monster. But my evo ix is my baby. They are becoming very rare. You do not see them on the street any more. I believe they will be worth a lot of money one day. If any one wants an evo and can find a clean evo ix, get it while you still can.

[@jevonbigga6172]

Out of curiosity which do you think sounds better stock?

[@leostormdryke9036]

Evo 9 has been my dream car since i was 7 and I grinded for 2 months to tune my evo 9 in mw to beat razor.

[@projectevolution2465]

The AYC pump is warentyable, I have had mine replaced for free on my modded Evo X! Think they extended the warranty on it actually cuz of all the complaints... But yeah the AYC is finnacy especially in the cold, mine died when it was like -20 F up in the mountains! Crazy how much tq vectoring you lose when its down. Was so weird driving in the snow when my car wasn't as nimble as I was so use to.

[@devinnewton3634]

I was looking forward to this video yesterday but y'all deleted it 😥 glad it's back tho lol

[@FitmentIndustries]

Yeahhhh about that 😂

[@breakebone]

good video, pls make "So You Want a 350/370z"

[@amariodom4858]

evo 10s are going for 20k and lower in my area not too expensive in my opinion for what it is

[@kaypolplasco]

im getting the MR for daily. All im doing to it is: Wheels/tires, intake, exhaust, and tint.

[@carl3837]

i like evos but im also pretty broke, so gts is the next option for me

[@Dewey122]

I want an Evo 3 *for the misfiring system*

[@FitmentIndustries]

😂

[@mountainbikeben4815]

Hopefully buying one tomorrow 🤞🏼

[@headonswivel7569]

My favorite is the Evo IV with those huge fogs on the front. Fun Fact...Jackie Chan starred with the Evo 3 and Evo IV in the early 90's (Thunderbolt and Who Am I)
