День томуA new DriveTribe project car is born! The James May spec Mitsubishi Evo VIII FQ-300!

@eppyz Місяць тому
Evo guy here after owning 4 of them, Evo 8, 2 Evo 9's and a X. I daily drove my Evo 9 MR since new with 400awhp for 6 yrs before I sold it and had ZERO issues. That was on a stock turbo running E85. I did have Cosworth M3 Cams, and Brian Crower Valve Springs and retainers in the head, and all the other simple bolt on supporting mods, but really not much money to get it to the 400awhp figure. The Subie you guys did was freaking fabulous. Typically, Evo's don't need as much internal mods to make power vs the Subie, but since the Subie is a completely built race motor, to keep it fair, I would go after the same power figures with the same type of build effort as with the Subie. Run separate maps like you did on the Subie as well. Low map on the Evo 400-450awhp high map 500-600awhp then take them to the track. I'm putting my money on the Evo if built to the same standard as the Subie. 👍😎
@xxxbupropion5683 Місяць тому
This is non related to the EVO platform, but since you talked about cams and valve springs, what other parts would you need to swap out if upgraded cams and valves are done? I’m trying to know what else would be worn out if they’re upgraded.
@turbo_brian Місяць тому
@@xxxbupropion5683it depends a lot on the motor as the design of the lifters changes a lot motor to motor, but in most cases with modern motors nothing should wear unless it was subjected to a lack of oil pressure. Typically when changing cams and valve springs one would also change valve stem seals (cheap while you're in there) and then the springs usually come with light weight retainers. If not you could consider this if you plan on increasing the rev limiter or the cam is significantly higher lift than stock. Keepers could also be changed out but those are usually an infinite life part unless it's a bmw/porsche/jag. Surprisingly those keepers actually tend to fail if they grip the valve too well and prevent it from rotating.
@eppyz Місяць тому
@@turbo_brian all very informative points I didn't have to change valve stems seals on my Evo 9 that I put cams in because the car only had about 3,000 mi on it when I put the cams in so that wasn't necessary and due to the valve train design in the Evo all you had to do was valve springs and retainers 👍

Never used the radio or mp3. Time of my life (so far) and I bought it for 950 euro at the time (8 years ago) as it had been in crash. Easy fix but Mike! 450 bhp is more than enough mate. 400 bhp would be more than enough. I say that because corners come at you in light speed on country roads. Needs to be drivable.

Had the exact same car in black back in the day! Mods needed first is an Evo 9 turbo and if you add race bearings to it, it'll help even more. 2nd is an Injen cold air intake, really helps the car breathe. A walboro 255 fuel pump to add more fuel, that branch manifold is good, but ceramic coated is better! I also added a 1.2mm Cosworth metal head gasket to help compression with ARP head studs. If you add forged pistons you should be able to add boost and go to around 420bhp. I different turbo would be needed for more power, I reckon 450bhp would be the sweet spot. Lastly, polybush the car and decent coilovers will help it put the power down. Can't wait for this build, I can re-live my youth (if you call 38 youthful 😂)

Buy one that’s already on the journey than doing that - you clearly loved that it was stock. It’ll wind up another evolution which isn’t stock and that will kinda be it

3:45 Reminds me of that American with the mile-long store front, they've got every brand there: Hoondee, Mitsebooshe, Tayoter, Kneeson, Djagwarr, B.M. Dubya, the list is endless.

A guy in my area has a 1400whp Evo 8. That motor can produce a ton of power!

I just put an MHI TF06-18K turbo with supporting mods and E85 on my Evo 8 for 450hp. Perfection.

what a beauty. Don´t do too much to it - it´s perfect, as it is. I have a EVO Wagon and 6 RS2. They are such great cars.

As if I didn't already have a problem holding myself back from buying an evo and now you guys have this. The temptation is real 😂👍

I've always been more of an evo guy but more than anything I loved the rivalry between the Evo and the WRX

I've always been an Evo person, 440 horsepower yeah sounds brilliant

I'm a subaru guy at heart but love both. Anything above 400bhp will be enough to have fun on a country road

I learned about the Impreza because of rally and the unique sound it makes just drew me to it. still hope to one day own a blob eye or Hawk eye.
