Once the head was finished, a MIVEC delete, Ferrea valvetrain and custom ground Kelford camshafts replaced the factory hardware before the head assembly rejoined the shortblock. His search led him to cylinder head, applying its CNC cylinder head program. As he waited anxiously, he discovered the meaning of “Idle hands are the devil’s workshop”, as he surfed the web to see what others had done with their CZ4As.
Werner hadn’t anticipated the amount of time it would take to machine and build up the 4B11T, fit it with a larger turbocharger and then have it tuned. Werner sent his machine up to Hogtown where the staff at Magnus Motorsports began the teardown.

I began researching my options and decided to work with Marco Passante at Magnus Motorsports in Toronto, Canada.” Discussions with Passante led to a full engine build with a Forced Performance FP3794R turbocharger. Werner commented, “I didn’t really have a game plan, I just wanted to go faster. This soon left him with little idea what else might be right for his application or what to do next. He chose the most typical bolt-on parts, knowing well that he would eventually outgrow these upgrades.
However, after acclimating to his EVO X, Werner started to seek ways to extract more performance. Werner’s first experience behind the wheel of his EVO X delivered an E-Ticket ride that many first-time EVO owners remember and cherish. He liked the CZ4A’s refinement, newer bodylines and 4B11T engine, which were a departure from the previous generations of 4G63-powered Evolution. When he finally bought his first EVO, it was a few generations later with this 2008 CZ4A EVO X.

George Werner of Hastings, Nebraska, has been a fan of Mitsubishi’s Lancer Evolution series since the late 1990s when he first learned about the Evolution V. Fortunately, the scrupulous professionals of our industry realize this and help to put wandering enthusiasts on a path toward an objective. Going into a project without direction is exactly how cars become money pits. Now weighing 990kg race ready, with over 700whp the performance truly is mind boggling and has resulted in a plethora of trophies and records in Kenny’s hands.There’s no worse strategy than no strategy at all. With power being developed by a 4G63 and a Ross Sport HTA3586 kit at the front, with a Quaife QBE6U transmitting power to all four corners this really is a very, very serious toy. This all enabled the car to be substantially lower to ground with additional hub and suspension geometry set up to suit – all made possible with our in-house made bespoke suspension arms, hubs and subframes. Over the last year the car has gone through an immense amount of fabrication procedures which includes a one piece front end, new rear arches (also one piece and located 100mm higher on the car) and a new front splitter. Kenny has always been determined to remove every last gram from the car, and at this stage there really isn’t much left! Weight has been removed or minimised from every single element of the car, from the T45 TIG Welded Roll-cage, to the carbon fibre steering wheel and titanium bolts every where possible, Kenny’s fanaticism really shows through.
Both a customer and a personal friend, his EVO has been one of our main test-beds for the engineering and testing of most of our product range, with the car now running almost everything on our entire catalogue. From day one Kenny has been a very familiar face at Momentum.
