Hee hee.. Evo is a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution. I think they are currently up to Evo VIII (8) MR?
evo 8 FQ33 w/e is it
it's got 300hp
and STi has some new model that is 322hp
i hope we're slippin into high hp age again >biggrin.gif>

the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.
what evo has 300hp?
i dont think any do stock....

the 04 is rated at 271hp
05 MR evo is rated at 276 a gain of 5 hp

its ok today my friend is buying a 95 gsx..
converted to 99 body style
fully upgraded make 300whp..its gonna be fun

going to kill a evo and mr2 turbo today haha
there's a third model
not the MR, a FQ33M or something weird

at least i believe so, i skimmed a magazine that was testing what looked to be new models of both STi and Evo against eachother
and the evo had 300(i know this for fact) and STi had 322 >tongue.gif>

they could have always been after factory options or something...i just skimmed, and ended up picking Super Street for the IS300 and AE86 articles >wink.gif>

im not reading that article! >tongue.gif>
the magazine could have just been outside, but if it was i dont see why they weren't comparing the Evolution FQ-400 to whatever the top-of-the-line STi is...

My fav is the STI, something about it just puts it above the evo on my list. but eh, if the supra had some minor stuff done to it, then it could take em, 96" tt stock has like 320hp already. then with some tweeking and upgrades its in the 400 range. If i saw that race, i'ed probibly pull over and check em out, see what there running if the race looked impressive.

yea, more peak hp is nothing, but the power band is a lot better with the new MR. even more boost and a bigger turbo. it also has a 6spd

i have read it hits as high as 21psi.

not so sure if i would want a evo tho, just for the fact that mitsu is prolly gonna shut down in the US.

great choice on the GSX. i love those cars. AWD is great. it rained here the past 2 days, i had so much fun.

then i went out in my 96 mustang GT, it was scary.
