We have looked at many versions of the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, but the best has to be the eighth generation, sure the ninth and tenth versions are better equipped. However, they also cost a lot more so the difference between the different versions will have an effect on the modifications that the import builder is able the carry out, therefore this is why the Evo 8 is the best for the job at the moment.
All Evos use
It makes no difference what you feel about the Mitsubishi Lancer Evo you have to hand it to the firm for producing a car that actually lives up to the Evolution term. For since its launch way back in 1992 the design team have work on the next model and then the next, this has continued until the present day where we see the tenth evolution. However, this time we will be looking a couple of years back at the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII.
On paper, the Evo VIII is the eighth generation of the popular Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution range, but in reality, the chassis is more of less the same. But, it is mainly the addition of the 17 inch grey Enkei wheels, Brembo Brakes and Bilstein shocks that makes this version stand apart from the seventh generation Lancer and yet every couple of years a new version of the car would appear, each one with its differences.
Calling anything “XXX” is going to make someone want to take a look at it, there is something about triple X that stands more than a single or even a double X would do. So when we see Project XXX alongside the Evo brand then we instantly know that this is going to be a very interesting project to say the very least and the Mitsubishi Evo 8 MR known as Project XXX does not disappoint in
The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution is the perfect car import builders, its called evolution because every one or two years since the first Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution was launched in 1982. The 2.0 litre turbo powered car, was built to compete in the World Rally Championships. However the Evo 8’s production lasted from 2003 until 2006, it was that good!
Still using the 2.0 litre turbo charged engine, this version of the
You have to go back to 1992 to find the first modified Mitsubishi Lancer, somehow in the Mitsubishi operation there was somebody with a great idea to produce a car that could compete in the World Rally Championships. Therefore, they combined the Lancer and Gallant to come up with the first evolution Mitsubishi Lancer this one car launched a series that have evolved ten times.
Every one or two year
It is amazing really, how the Lancer from Mitsubishi has changed over the years, after all, it is not called the evolution for nothing, it first hit the road during 1982 and then regular as clockwork every two years the Lancer evolved into the next version. Each evolution produced a change in certain areas but overall the Lancer of today is far removed from the earlier models of the early eighties.
This particular versio
The Mitsubishi Lancer Evo has to be one of the most aptly named cars around as it has evolved ten times since its introduction to the car market in 1992. That’s almost a new model every other year and each time it has evolved the car has got better and more desirable to the car buying public, not to mention the import builders who love to get their hands on these cars.
The model is owned and built by Damien Cahill of Columbia,
For car of its size, the factory would have probably fixed the Mitsubishi EVO 8 at around 200 HP, although there were some versions that offered around 400 HP. so when we say that Project XXX delivers 424 HP, you get a picture of the sort of performance that is available to the driver of this car.
The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII was the first of its kind to hit the streets of North A
If you want to impress anyone down at the track power is one way to do it, the other is to have a car that stands out from the crowd and this Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Viii does both. What makes it even more interesting is the fact that the guy that built it runs a pizza restaurant and no he does not use it to deliver either.
The car has a huge 893 HP and offers around 667 lb ft of torque so there you have it, the car has the looks and power, in fact there is enough of each for a couple of cars, but it’s all wrapped up in one nice parcel.
