We're expecting to release our "bolt-in" replacement engine for the Mitsubishi Evo X 4B11T engine, our full billet, drysump 1000+hp Móði in the next few days!
As with our previous 3 engines, Thor, Rex, and Hel, Móði is a full engine designed from the start as a single package. No mixing and matching with blocks and heads causing head gasket issues, no bored out block creating a lot of flex, and no converted wetsump to drysump band-aids.
The Name
Sticking to our Norse Mythology naming, Móði (Módi or Modi, pronounced something like "muudi") is the son of Thor. Móði roughly translates to "brave" or "wrath". Which suits a evo X engine derived from the ElmerRacing Thor engine perfectly.
The engine
Close to full "bolt-in" compatible with the 4B11T engine. Including compatibility with as much of the evo X wire harness as possible, intake & exhaust manifold, all engine accessories including power steering pump, alternator, AC pump, and water pump, engine mounts, etc. Engine has full 4B11T compatible mivec system, and compatible with aftermarket and mitsu cams. We're considering what ignition coils to have default compatibility with.
Engine uses mitsubishi 4b11t crankshaft (good for 1000+hp according to tuners) to keep costs down, and spare parts availability good. Custom cranks will be a option though.
We recommend this engine primarily for high power turbo applications. Engine is designed to be able to run modern anti-lag, and has turbo oil feed and oil return locations on the turbo side of the block. But it's of course entirely possible to run it naturally aspirated with higher compression pistons.
As with our other engines, Móði is design from the start to be dry sump. No "drysump converted" awkwardly shaped wet sump crank cases here.
To-do
We still have some details to finalize in the design, such as the bottom mounting bracket for the AC compressor, clearance for the crank sensor, flywheel blanking covers etc. But we're close enough to be able to release the engine very soon!
We're also looking for a potential customer that wants to have the first Móði engine in the world, with a stockish evo X engine bay willing to lend us their car for a few months for us to double check fitment and the installation procedure. You can't beat getting the engine installation for free with factory support when purchasing a new engine!
