i know market price for recon is around 160-170k
known problem would be transfer case whinning sound
fuel consumption not that sure and i tihnk maintenance cost is just the LSD fluid and engine oil etc etc?

However i was hoping there are more information regarding it
and also if drive an evo...can pump ron95? or must pump v-power
last time this is my dream car i was thinking die die must pump v-power since not that expensive...but now...as you all know fuel price increase like crazy.

I am not loaded with money, just a passionate guy that die die must drive evo...haha, but of cuz provided if i can afford it.

i dont think its stupid to ask about maintenance cost about a sub par 200k car. However if i open a thread about ferrari maintenance cost that will sound retarded and just plainly wasting time since filthy rich ppl usually dont visit forum. They just buy and drive ^^

You can pump RON95 but need to retune the ECU for it with lower boost and timing

hmmm
evo price definitely exceed my annual income sleep.gif
but i thinking of saving up and give like around 20-30% down payment so monthly instalment wont be overkill
well, see how it goes
any real life situation on driving evo?
anyone driving evo willing to share how does it feel like in term of maintenance cost etc, trouble with police etc?/...you know, real life situation instead of hypothetical one

Well also less hurting on pocket
And you can use RON95 + Octane Booster or Water Injection to compensate for the lower RON rating fuel icon_idea.gif
Hell with that way you can run same or higher boost/timing then RON97 alone biggrin.gif
@TS,a suggestion for you...
Visit zerotohundred.com and ask in the Lancer Evolution Owners Club section
Also another good source would be lancerregister.net/evolutionm.net
And if your budget is constrained,why not look into older EVO?You can pick up EVO VII for like 100k,EVO VIII for like 115-130k and EVO VIII MR for a bit more icon_rolleyes.gif
If you need to know detailed difference between EVO,can PM me smile.gif

Stock 4G63T boost is about 1.3-1.4bar and taper down a bit at top end
This applies to EVO IV+ 4G63
As for HP,the main weaklink is actually con rod bolt
Suggested torque to stick to with stock bottom end is about 425-450ft/lb
HP wise depend on turbo selection,octane,tuner etc

only got experience with evo 7 gta-spec not long ago, very good car, average fc (if dont drive like mad dog lah)....

power is slightly less than a "normal" evo, but still enough to vroom vroom with rx8, scirocco, 3-series or those turbocharged wira on the highway and Genting without any problem......

the owner of this car is letting go at RM90k ++
