The Mitsubishi EVO VIII is one of my favorite project cars we have done. This car truly feels like a race car unlike the luxuried up EVO X. One of our customers in Colorado has just shared with us his complete build of this silver Mitsubishi EVO VIII. The full build includes upgraded motor internals, twin scoll Borg Warner turbo setup, beefed up transmission, and a full Ings aero kit. On the break-in tune, the car made 478awhp at 28psi! Check out the mod list and pictures below. If your looking to build a EVO like this, visit our Mitsubishi EVO Engine store here.

this car acutally made 578awhp on the break in tune. and also made 660awhp on 30psi only. it will be tuned in few weeks and push some more boost (38-40psi) we are guessing around 770-800whp maybe a little more. def one of the nicest EVOs I have driven and seen.
