Totally throws off the whole weight distribution of the car, and i think you could do better with an Evo motor.
4g63 FTW

Pretty common.

they ruined the evo....
You cant even fit wide enough rear wheels on without things looking wierd. and i doubt the suspension and chassis handles the power delivery of a boosted LS1 the correct way, although very interesting to see and watch its very impractical and in my opinion a waste of money. Its not like the 4G63 platform had problems making power anyways.

The shop probably had extra money and were bored or something. I think it's cool to be the only shop who did this kind of swap. I'd do it for some fun and to be known as the only shop who swapped a LS1 into an Evo.

I dont understand how some people say, "what a waste of an evo". To me, I look at it as it's unique value rather then if it can do a 8sec pass in the 1/4 mile.
