The car is loud; gets incredibly bad gas mileage and at that power level is unreliable. I couldn't do it; i've been there done that and it would be very tough to go back.

Last but not least; how are you expecting to make 520 WHP on pump gas in an EVO X for $5K? Please list all of your mods with prices because after all of the supporting mods, turbo kit, tuning and precautionary mods (clutch and so forth if you are smart) there is no way you will be within 5K.

BTW, buying a used EVO is like buying a ticking time bomb; this is fact.
The kit $,4,500 with injectors,then Adding a act clutch,and the car has the rest of the supporting mods.All in all should cost me 6k and I'm done that's with the install,tune,and parts.
