Installing a used transmission as you found out is gamble. If you don't want to pay the $7500 for a new transmission with a warranty. Your only other alternative is to source another used or new trans., install it yourself and or the mechanic you mentioned and have them flash and or program it. You can also try a transmission shop and see what they say. Good Luck.

You could get a Lancer Railiart from 2009 & up for around $7500 is pretty much an Evo but less wider. it's AWD turbo with a 6 speed Dual clutch auto. it makes less power than the Evo due to the different turbo set up & different engine tuning. The Evo x has a Twin scroll turbo & the Ralliart has a Single Scroll turbo. It's the same engine layout you could swap Evo parts onto the Ralliart if you plan on modifying it in the future ‍♂️.
