A brochure of the JDM market Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X has been scanned and posted at the Lancer Register Forum, revealing to us the first official details and power ratings of the new rally-inspired sports sedan, though the car that the rest of the world will get might be slightly different in terms of power outputs.
The 4B11T makes 280 PS at 6,500rpm and 422Nm of torque at 3,500rpm. You can see the engine’s torque curve in the little graph embedded in this post. This is slightly better than the Evo VIII’s 4G63T that makes an equivalent output but lower peak torque at only 400Nm.
Two models will be available – the GSR and the RS. The RS is the lighter, more bare basics version – so bare that it doesn’t even have that trademark Evo rear wing, knowing very well that owners will most probably dump it for a carbon fibre GT wing-type design. The GSR can be equipped with either a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed Twin Clutch SST gearbox, while the RS only comes with a 5-speed manual.

evo always be my dream sedan but the price make it my nightmare
lanevo is not very passion these days
might not be accurate, the 280ps is just to satisfy the gentlemen’s agreement on paper, i read magazines who dynoed evos in the past and they always produce >300ps
I heard that GSR & RS will still using the 2.0L mivec but added turbo, while the EVO X will be using 2.4L mivec wif 6-speed manual.. Dont know is true or not.. The engine is to fight against the 2.5L subaru WRX STi..
I think the 6-speed SST semi-auto should be selling good for GSR.
very bright potential
This Evo looks very cutting edge. great gearbox, improvement on the engine with its new vtec. Moreover, the active diff ensures you look good and fast with a bit of sliding action but not stupid (which is where you might spin out of control or go off the road).
This is a complete contrast to the new Impreza. Can’t wait to read the review of the car.
HOT!
don’t know how much bhp can this 4B11T Mivec do in realife ?
Hopes MMM bring in 2008 ? And sell at reasonable price!
hope ’07 Lancer sells well might probably encourage MMM bring this in…
LittleFire85: instead of just mentioning what you heard, why not head on to the brochure scans to find out that what you just mentioned is wrong… for this JDM market evo at least? i don’t understand why people like to just pass on what they heard without doing abit of research first. you’re repeating what you did with what you heard from proton salesmen that the campro is based on a renault engine. it wouldn’t hurt to do abit of research.

Well… If u want to ask about Campro = Renault engine… I dont know, but i read from there first and also from the proton salesman second…
Anyway GEMA have 2.4L engine used in Hyundai/Kia, the broucher above only stated GSR @ RS. There don’t have Evo X inside. In Japan, there have a lot of stroke kit for 2.4L 4G63T engine.. So in conclusion is the 2.4L 4B11T is possible? Yup! Even small turbo kit for the current lancer can be got in Japan especially from HKS or Ralliart! I am not saying that it is true, i just heard from ppl chatting which come back from Japan. He work there as a scrap metal helper, which scrap kereta potong back to Malaysia to sell. He every day get hands dirty by talking to the car manufacturer & insurance ppl, coz ppl trade in their car to the car sales ppl or accident cars to insurance ppl to be scrap. He met an Mitsubishi sales person, and he told me about it. In Japan, they call it as galant.. and they have 1.5L Mivec also… which has soled in Singapore last month…
I didnt not admit it that is it true, i just heard it.
looks like a DSG type of gearbox would be introduced…I like!!
Isn’t it EVO X GSR or RS?? At least jdm will use 4B11T. Just as the imprezza ver 9 using the EJ20.
Oh sorry, the 2.4L is for UK/US spec… Just ask my friend.. he say the 2.0L is for JDM market.. Anywayz the 2.4L upgrade is available after next year.. Sorry paul..

LittleFire85 ;
The front cover of the brochure stated Lancer Evolution X…
GSR & RS are the variants for the Lancer Evolution X…
There is a turbocharged 300+ horsepower version of the GEMA 2.4 liter engine used in Chryslers. Someone could probably fit it easily into his Lancer as it is the same chassis.
good point, fit a F430’s engine into Evo X, make it twin turbocharged, haha!! (just kidding)
I personally don’t care much about how much more power there is in the car. thats not what an EVO is all about. is all about driving a feathery light car (at least it feels that way), with lots of confident in cornering ability, even for ameteurs.
And now, you don’t have to worry about stalling the car or using the clutch anymore! how good is that? definitely make any rich kid look cool.
the point is littlefire85, if you cannot verify a piece of information is true or not in the first place, why even mention it?
worst off all, when someone challenges you, you actually defend your information which you dont even know is true in the first place.
if someone who is wrong in the first place tells you something, and you repeat it to a 3rd person, the information is still wrong.
evo always be my dream sedan but the price make it my nightmare!! i think this sentence must be correct here!!!!
