You can do a whole year + tests without rebuild easily(1500-2000km).We are talking about a normal motor as the evo you can buy from Mitsubishi except some studs.Its possible to run for more kms,but inspection will save money from an possible failure.Quote:

The bigges news for me was that DI can be used. I thought it was to be normal injection, to save cost.
Other issues to save cost, simple standard 5 speed gearbox, and simple 4wd system. Same with suspension, only McPhearson and interchangable front/rear, smart.
Lets see what the real price will end up with in the end!
The link doesn't work...
In my opinion direct injection can be used only in case the stock engine has it. In that case it is easier to keep stock solution. For example PSA/BMW EP6 CDT is DI engine.
Junior teams or cars from the works team is a very good idea. It works i racing, so why not in rally?
