Like the car but eventually want more power. Mod bug is easy to catch. Debating on sending in core for FP Green or pushing stock turbo to its limits. Not factored in yet, but I'll prob eventually go with bigger injectors and fuel pump.
OEM Turbocharger - purchased for $300/shipped
OEM O2 housing - purchased stock Evo X housing $50/shipped
Downpipe - purchased UR short DP w/ gasket + bung $194/shipped
http://www.ultimate-racing.com/Produ...Downpipe.shtml
OEM Evo X intake w/ turbo inlet hose- $65/shipped
Misc. Package - $350/shipped
OEM Exhaust manifold - see misc. package
OEM Turbo Outlet pipe - see misc. package
OEM Inlet elbow - see misc. package
OEM Evo X MAF housing - see misc. package
Oil feed line - see misc. package
Oil return line - see misc. package
Coolant feed/return pipes - see misc. package
Exhaust stud x2 - see misc. package
Turbo to manifold gasket - see misc. package
Turbo to 02 housing gasket - see misc. package
Coolant banjo bolt x2 - see misc. package
Coolant banjo bolt gasket x4 - see misc. package
Inlet elbow gasket - see misc. package
Final total: $959/shipped
Now everything gets to sit in my garage until summer when I have time to do my swap with some help. I think I did good on overall cost of parts. Anyone know a rough estimate on how long it takes to swap everything out (if I didn't forget anything)? Figured it would take all day.

When i did my evoX swap, i also had the evoX MAF housing with a filter on it, I just used the rubber part of the Ralliart intake (between the inlet pipe and MAF housing) and cut it shorter to 1. fit the Inlet pipe, and 2. so i could use a regular battery
#5
A lot of the bigger price items you can find from our fellow Evo X owners who are selling their OEM parts. All of the gaskets and oil/water lines i would reccomend getting new. Just google OEM mitsubishi and that site has all the gaskets and lines for around $250 (including shipping)
#6
Turbo, o2 housing, and DP were purchased from different sellers. Everything else (misc package) was purchased from one seller on this forum in the For Sale section.

I might try that out. Just looking for suggestions because I would like to avoid going the SRI route.

Tuned a 2009 Ralliart with a Evo 10 turbo swap this weekend, great results for the simple mods (or lack of).
2009 Ralliart
Mods:
OEM Evo 10 turbo
OEM Evo 10 exhaust manifold
OEM Evo 10 FMIC
OEM Evo 10 Intercooler piping (top and bottom)
OEM Evo 10 BOV
AMS Downpipe
OEM Ralliart catback and OEM cat
OEM Ralliart intake box and snorkel
GST Boost pill
Drop in filter
91 octane
284 whp / 265 wtq
For reference a 100% bone stock Ralliart puts down approx 190-195whp on this dyno. Tuned stock Ralliarts put down around 220 whp.
You can reference those numbers from my personal Ralliart thread here.
Would be interesting to see what the car would do with a full exhaust and a upgraded intake system.

At the end of January, you posted this in a thread Bryan. How did you manage to fit the stock RA intake to the Evo X turbo is what me and Mad_SB have been trying to figure out? Ultimately so we can keep the stock battery in the stock RA location (and reduce noise for the sleeper effect).

A lot of these parts are used and were purchased from the For Sale section of these forums. Only new part ordered was the UR short downpipe. Had I went with the stock X DP, I would've saved another $140 b/c the person that sold me the o2 housing also had a stock X DP for $50.
Part of the reason I started this thread was to add to the research already performed by Eric@AMS along with others and assist the community with the overall process and cost of performing the X swap. Everyone's cost and experience is bound to be different but this thread adds to the information available to the RA family.
It begs to answer the question, "How much would it cost to perform an X swap?"
In my case it was $894......so far.

Looks like Mike@RRE may pursue fabbing up more of his custom turbo inlet pipes. Think there are prob some RA owners interested in the X swap that can benefit from this.
