I HEARD N "EVO 8" FLYS like a modafucker! :thumbsup

I must say it looks very nice:1orglaugh

Looks fucking good. Congrats :thumbsup

stock its actually 271hp, and this particular car was stock for about 2 weeks.

271 flywheel = 235-245 at the wheels on an all-wheel drivetrain.

:thumbsup

he's right...i know cuz thats his car :thumbsup

Looks like fun to play with

Still doesnt take away from the fact that all car companies measure HP and torque at the flywheel, which is why cars always dyno in less then what the company says they make.

Drivetrain loss is a bitch :)

Thats 100% correct. I dyno'd this car a couple of weeks ago and hp was ~305 (at the wheels). Thats with some minor tuning and parts. I just picked up some new parts for the car yesterday and its gonna take that number closer to 400 (at the wheels).

This is why I love turbo cars, they react to mods like V8s.

(ROUGH estimates)
turbo + new exhaust = ~20hp
v8 + new exhaust = ~25hp
honda + new exhaust = 2hp;

50 hp

0-50 in under 4 :1orglaugh :thumbsup

0-50!? I think you mean 60!

not in stock form, 280hp at the crank. But its easily tuned to 350-400hp

Mitsubishi UK sell a version that has 345hp at the flywheel as standard. It's the Evo 8 MR FQ-340.

See if you can guess what the "FQ" stands for...

Nice!!!!!

Nice color.

Thats a nice toy indeed. Im sure he is having fun.

yea, nice car

ganjasaurus needs to come in here and post a pic of his too

:1orglaugh

That's the great thing about factory turbocharged cars, they've got strong bottom ends straight from the factory.

And on the honda comment, that only really holds true if you've got the stock engine in there. Swapping in a bigger engine and doing internal work instead of just the basic boltons, you can easily make 200+ whp on an NA 1.8L engine. There's a guy here running low 12's in a full interior daily driven 2000 hatchback making 220 whp at 9000 RPM with an acura integra GSR 1.8 liter motor.

Then again, honda's in the quarter mile arent a good idea anyway, I'd rather build it up to handle like its on rails.

The Evo on the other hand, well, its lightning fast in the quarter, and handles like a dream as well :Graucho

Nice looking ride except for the rear spoiler. :thumbsup

Really rocks:thumbsup

Yeah right, this one is PRETTY NICE!

nice car! :thumbsup

it's fly :Graucho

impressive:thumbsup

now move to Germany when you can use all that power

i almost got an evo.. driving home my supra on the 27th :) :) :) 550hp at 20psi SP63 kit.. i'm excited like crazy this is going to be the longest month EVER.

wow...nice

nice but i prefer my '67 mustang

DSM's oWn

...til the tranny goes out

:thumbsup nice. i've got a '71 mach 1 collecting dust and rust back in Cali. :(

japanese car...nothing left to say :/

I dont wanna start an domestic vs. import war. To each their own, my reason for getting this car is because its practical (4 door), amazing handling (like a go-kart), and its fast. I also like the fact that its a 4 cylinder making pretty much the same horse power (if not more) than a V8.
