officer - sir do you realise just how fast you were going!? me in EVO - i know we were speeding but we were having fun! officer - ah i see your driving a EVO X, carry on then sorry to disturb you
Its also a fact that the 4B11t is an all around better engine than the 4G63 unless you plan on exceeding 1200whp, then the 4G63 is better due to the closed deck iron block.
Love my evo x. It's not just the power. For the price you get an amazing handling car. It's too fun on the twisties. Not too many cars in the price range can compete. Its just a huge plus that the engine can handle more power reliably
It was a few reasons they switched. It was about getting MIVEC on the exhaust side not just the intake side like the 4G63, which required the engine to be turned 180 degrees (sadly, the turbo now tucked into the firewall) but emissions naturally got better with MIVEC. They also went to an aluminum block to save weight because the car was targetted more as a touring car / BMW M3 competitor and added 600lbs in noise reduction and comfort touches. Own a 2014 X MR..it's nuts.
@@stephen9944 As far as I know, the added weight is from the additional airbags to meet stricter federal regulations and a 50% stiffer chassis (less body roll) than older models.
@@Yakobito additional airbags, for sure but the soundproofing and interior touches Mitsu added is a well-known weight gainer over the Evo's that came before. As far as a 50% stiffer chassis, and owning one myself, I've had to add Whiteline sway bars, end links and a Fortune Auto 500 set of coil-overs to get it to be flick-able around corners like the Evo 8/9's were so amazing at. Those changes were the first I made before adding bolt-ons and now that it's making 330/320 whp/tq, the car is untouchable on the track. I constantly hit 1:22 laptimes at my local track when $100,000+ rides are struggling to get 1:23's.
Awesome car! Had the opportunity to own an evo 9 and evo X both tune to push 400hp+ and never had any issues with them! Super fun to drive and relatively comfortable when you have family and kids. Looking to go back into Evolution again!
I have a evo III, and a M5 E60. Evo is just so good, so mechanical, so pure. I swapped the engine myself and did some porting and polishing, changed the turbo and this feather-weight magic just moves. Sometimes it gets scary, but man ALIVE this car is just so good. I wonder if the Evo X delivers the same mechanical experience.
it does bro! it really feels just as alive as every other evo i have reviewed :) its amazing how every evo always has the same characteristics even after so long in production! they where so ahead of the times! really hope you get the chance to drive one man you will love it..
@@stephen9944 no they're not! The new evos are phev electric looking SUVs lol. Cross over type bullshit! I'm glad they stop making evos. Evos failed to upgrade each year! Suburus didnt

You're spot on about 2nd gear Ross. Most of the Evo's have a high final drive around 4.5 (4.8 for the RS models) and it really shows when you floor it.....
@@RossReviewsau need to get you in a tuned X MR, that feeling lives from gear 1 to gear 6, the boost never drops because the RPM's never get a chance to drop less than 500rpm between shifts.

What people dont understand that the alluminum block of the 4B11 is extremely strong and more reliable for holding the power rather then the 4G63 is. In other words a built 4B11 is a stronger motor but stock block a 4G63 Can handle more power. Most evo shops and tuners perfer 10’s over 9 and 8’s.

Robert Arutunian ya idk🤷♂️ only had the car for the day.. played around on it for like 20min and nothing obvious came up so just drove with it 🤣 annoying but the drive was well worth it
It’s still a great engine, it just doesn’t have the over 3 decades of motorsports pedigree and aftermarket support that the 4G63 does. For these reasons I think a lot of people have an irrational aversion to it.
tom downing dame 🤦♂️ you got me there not sure how I missed this.. you are correct now having a good second look that’s a 6.. cheers for letting me know🙏. Still glad you enjoyed the overall review 😁🙌
I got an MR 1 year ago with leather recaros and dual clutch trans. Amazing car but u have to tell everyone interested in buying one of these ones: You HAVE to replace the fuel pump RELAY (search in ytube)
That car is obviously modified. Beyond the exhaust and upper pipe, the pops and bangs indicate at least a tune. No telling if the suspension was upgraded as well, but what you're reviewing and enjoying is an upgraded form of the car. Just wanted to point that out.
qleap99 it for sure isn’t 100% stock.. but not aggressively tuned under the hood i was told.. lots of exterior mods but was a dealer car so very hard to know for sure what was done to it.. hope ya enjoyed the vid anyhow🙌

I have to say, " I really liked the time of the Mitsubishi Evo" lets prey that Mitsubishi Evo XX is created and put out for the public to buy. Hint: ( the new name suggestion)
Ive had all sorts of cars, my Evo X was the best of the lot. Edited, I tuned mine to just over 400kw at the wheels, it was fucken berserk. The engine eventually failed at almost 300,000km. At the moment I still have it and I hope to get it back on the road eventually: $20k required for that though. Anyone who wanted to help with that would score the car for 6 months as a thank you.
@@chasegray1522 it had a timing chain issue (the chain was worn and had jumped at least one tooth) that my mechanic misdiagnosed as a problem with the exhaust cam, they tried to fix it with a flush of some kind, and managed to introduce the valves to the pistons while the car was idling on the dyno.
Update: I'm a week or two away from getting my Evo back from an engine rebuild and new rotating assembly, turbo and various other bits... if there's one good thing about COVID-19, its the 'raid your super for up to 20 grand' which I did. Total cost of the rebuild is close to 15k, but it's going to be worth every cent!
the 4B11T is also as square an engine as it gets. 86x86mmx4. That's why it's a very harmoniously-balanced engine from the factory. Also, your smile of the corner is likely in large part due to the S-AWC on the car. Mechanical torsen-type front diff, Active center, and that fantastic torque-vectoring AYC diff in the rear. IMO, regardless of the power delivery, it's what makes the X a better driver's car than the IX. Don't get me wrong, an Evo is an Evo, which always means Beast Mode comes standard. But the X keeps the badge competitive against most modern tech-laden cars primarily due to its ground-breaking AWD setup. Which, again, keeps it competitive even after over a decade since it first went on sale.

Best video that you have produced yet mate, and I don't like rice-burners ( as you should know ). Great inclusion of the vehicles history.

Gotta have a cause for celebration in shitsville Victoria : )

@@RossReviewsau ..... Keep the great work up mate! I had to laugh when I was fed the short of your comment, as all it contained was "I pulled an all nighter" ... so I Immediately thought that it was from the reprobate Victorian. Where izee anyway?
It's not a borla, you can tell by the tip size and the way it connects under the car. Borla's are a lot tidier and don't hang down like the one Ross is reviewing. If you want a proper sounding Evo X, the best addition is an ETS High Flow Catback and keeping the stock Catback until you can save for a better catback than the Borla; the high flow catalytic converter affects the tone the most and will allow for a faster exhaust exit.
evo 7-10 are king. I love the 7-0 more then the 10 but i wouldnt mind a evox haha and they didn't use the 4g63 because the 4b11 has a alloy block and better tech. By in track racing and drags 4g63 is easier to get power out of

No prob bro also cool Au thing about that evo it has the intercooler spray its button next to the awc in the center console Love the titanium intercooler pipe Great vid bro
its great you paid homage to the last evo..... but a few things tbh I was dissapointed with. you kept saying it feels like an evo???? that's because it is mate and you kept referencing the 4g63 which I agree is a great motor. you seem to have forgotten or not know what the motor in the evo x is.... its called a 4B11. its much more refined and in my opinion better . the mivec speaks for itself and that's just a start. the factory internals are much stronger and allow for more power before having to build the bottom end. the 4g was a ticking time bomb if the motor wasn't built. enjoyed the vid. cheers
when i reviewed this car it was my first experience in a evo x so i was fairly unfamiliar.. was mainly trying to emphasise that the new one still felt like a older evo n had the same characteristics (4g63) witch was a good thing :) appreciate your feed back all helps me make better reviews

Why did the engine go? Like under stress in a race or something or it's just got old?
@@chasegray1522 it had a timing chain issue (the chain was worn and had jumped at least one tooth) that my mechanic misdiagnosed as a problem with the exhaust cam, they tried to fix it with a flush of some kind, and managed to introduce the valves to the pistons while the car was idling on the dyno.
Update: I'm a week or two away from getting my Evo back from an engine rebuild and new rotating assembly, turbo and various other bits... if there's one good thing about COVID-19, its the 'raid your super for up to 20 grand' which I did. Total cost of the rebuild is close to 15k, but it's going to be worth every cent!
Always did like the Evo. Its practical yet fast 😌
nkosi collier that’s it eh 4 doors and goes like a bat outa hell!
I Love my Evo.
the 4B11T is also as square an engine as it gets. 86x86mmx4. That's why it's a very harmoniously-balanced engine from the factory. Also, your smile of the corner is likely in large part due to the S-AWC on the car. Mechanical torsen-type front diff, Active center, and that fantastic torque-vectoring AYC diff in the rear. IMO, regardless of the power delivery, it's what makes the X a better driver's car than the IX.
Don't get me wrong, an Evo is an Evo, which always means Beast Mode comes standard. But the X keeps the badge competitive against most modern tech-laden cars primarily due to its ground-breaking AWD setup. Which, again, keeps it competitive even after over a decade since it first went on sale.
Slippercream 6G75M very good points you know your stuff! I really want to try a MR version evo X be interesting to see if there are any major differences in the drive
@@RossReviewsau if you ever find your way in the Toronto Canada area, you'll have a Phantom Black Pearl, Chet Rickerman (legend) tuned MR to see what it's like to never lose boost from 1st to 6th gear :)
@@stephen9944 cheers man! im actually from Ottawa but have lived in Perth Australia now for the past 8 years.. i go back home every few years.. i would love to see your MR!
@@RossReviewsau I knew you are a Canuckle-head lol. I live 5 hours from Ottawa, hit me up when you're back for a visit and we'll hit the Toronto Motorsports Speedway for the day. The MR's up to 400whp/330wtq, all new suspension, new ETS intercooler, Greddy RS single exit catback...she's primed and ready for the track!
Nice ,do you know what kind the exhaust is that?
A B thanks! Unfortunately this was a dealer car n they rarely give me any info about the car.. if you ask the dealer though the link they might know 🤷♂️ but I couldn’t find any marking to tell me exactly.. sorry m8
@@RossReviewsau Thank you anyway 👍
possibly a ultimate racing exhaust... another owner reckons it sounds the same as his car.. so could be the same
Think it's a japspeed exhaust sound the same as mine
I’ve owned a evo 4 and 7 before now I drive a hybrid but thinking of getting an evo 9 Manuel
evo 9 is so good! highly recommend
I've always loved the body style when I as much younger 14 or younger I had the same as lancer version(with driver) and always dreamed of the Evo same body
Anywhere still sell this?? Im from vietnam love the car alot
Only on the used market now m8
@@RossReviewsau yeah i see it but idk is there anyone who sell it. My country didnt import this car :((

I'm glad to see "WA" plate on the car .

Best video that you have produced yet mate, and I don't like rice-burners ( as you should know ). Great inclusion of the vehicles history. Ooh..... just noticed, you are up to 1.2K sub's : 2K is just around the next bend mate, and Brett ( LS3.8YA ) has promised to get maggoted on that day ( nothin' new ). Gotta have a cause for celebration in shitsville Victoria : )
thank you! i pulled an all nighter yesterday to try and get it ready for this morning haha... glad you enjoyed it! i think the history part was actually one of my favourite bits about the whole vid haha managed to find some cool clips to go along with it.. haha we all celebrating at 2K🍻
@@RossReviewsau ..... Keep the great work up mate! I had to laugh when I was fed the short of your comment, as all it contained was "I pulled an all nighter" ... so I Immediately thought that it was from the reprobate Victorian. Where izee anyway?
Picking my Evo x up on Monday whoo hoo
jared constable exciting bro!
Sounds like a Borla Catback....its the exhaust I plan on getting for my evo whenever i get enough pennies for it lol
LOSisBEAST2 keep saving bro! This exhaust sounded mint🔥🙌 hope you enjoyed the vid🤙
It's not a borla, you can tell by the tip size and the way it connects under the car. Borla's are a lot tidier and don't hang down like the one Ross is reviewing. If you want a proper sounding Evo X, the best addition is an ETS High Flow Catback and keeping the stock Catback until you can save for a better catback than the Borla; the high flow catalytic converter affects the tone the most and will allow for a faster exhaust exit.

Missed this one. Sick🍺
this was one of my first to really take off :) loved this car
What's that purple intercooler piping? Looks awesome
zaniac 9611 sorry didn’t have a owner to tell me the mods
Good stuff mate
John Bullivant 🙏 thank you bro.. appreciate the support🤙
evo 7-10 are king. I love the 7-0 more then the 10 but i wouldnt mind a evox haha and they didn't use the 4g63 because the 4b11 has a alloy block and better tech. By in track racing and drags 4g63 is easier to get power out of
Beast60 I love the 10s but the 8mr was so good too😅 hard to choose I love all evos🤣🤷♂️
@@RossReviewsau evo7 for racing because lightest, evo9 for looks, 8mr for all round package but i absolutely hate the front end of a evo8 lol
@@Monstero5o yeah, nah... CP9A (Evo 5-6.5) is king.

haha oh hell ya bro
Have you reviewed other evos? I'm wondering about the 7
check my channel i have reviewed a evo 7 :)
Question: Is it easy to work on? Is there room in the engine bay?
i would say no lol
i want a evo 10
so does everyone haha
I saw an exact car just like this but fully decked out in armor and robbing a bank on the Great Ocean Highway the getting carried off by a cargobob with a giant magnet attached to it
Spunds just like mine .. prob a ultimate racing exhaust
thanks for the info! few people have been keen to know👌
No prob bro also cool Au thing about that evo it has the intercooler spray its button next to the awc in the center console
Love the titanium intercooler pipe
Great vid bro
@@edayala9171 true i didnt know that! next time im in one ill try it out haha thanks for the support m8 :)
Is that akrapovic? Cause it sounds like it but akra is not so loud I guess
Oh sorry I thought it was akrapovic
How tall are you? I want to imagine how well I would fit in one of those
BDN I’m just under 6ft tall (178cm)
@@RossReviewsau ohhh thanks a lot! I'm actually just 2 cm taller than you. This really helped me :D
BDN all good m8
Im 6ft 3. Own a 2014 evo gsr. I fit fine. Even have the seat pushed up.
Im 6 ft 2, I fit in my X MR with a couple of inches headroom to spare and a click or two of seat backsliding to go.
You are over the speed limit!
Kenneth Nanan 😅 99% of the time I was over the speed limit in this rocket!🤣🙌
Enjoy your ride bro!🇹🇹
Kenneth Nanan always will brotha 🙌🙏
its great you paid homage to the last evo..... but a few things tbh I was dissapointed with.
you kept saying it feels like an evo???? that's because it is mate and you kept referencing the 4g63 which I agree is a great motor. you seem to have forgotten or not know what the motor in the evo x is.... its called a 4B11. its much more refined and in my opinion better . the mivec speaks for itself and that's just a start. the factory internals are much stronger and allow for more power before having to build the bottom end. the 4g was a ticking time bomb if the motor wasn't built. enjoyed the vid. cheers
when i reviewed this car it was my first experience in a evo x so i was fairly unfamiliar.. was mainly trying to emphasise that the new one still felt like a older evo n had the same characteristics (4g63) witch was a good thing :)
appreciate your feed back all helps me make better reviews
I want one
me too
Whyd you block off the intercooler?
Looking good! ;)
Oh yeah!
3:45 What a beautiful "Evo x"
