Don't get me wrong, an Evo's a great handling car. It's just not in a Z06's league, and especially not a C6Z06. Hence the huge difference in price. Silly boy.
do a little more reading. while the evo may not make as much horsepower the handling is impecable. like i said, i have seen a $38k evo beat a $125k ferrari.
The result of this thoroughness is a car that Mitsubishi claims is 'the fastest accelerating four-door saloon car ever produced by a major manu-facturer.' On a rolling road, the Evo registers 405bhp at 6,400rpm and a no less impressive 355lb ft of torque at 5,500pm, but the real pub-bore figures are to do with the acceleration. With the aid of four-wheel drive, this Evo pummels its way from 0-60mph in just 3.5 seconds and hits 100mph in 9.1. Consider, for a moment that BMW's M3 takes 4.9 seconds to reach 60mph or that the Porsche Carrera GT requires 3.9 seconds. This is one mighty chariot.
WHoc ares. It's a car. You buy what you like and nobody cares in the real worlds.
personally I like the reliability, efficiancy and luxery of imports but I like the mean look and sound of domestic muscle. Nothing quite feels like that thud you get in the sole of your feet with each ignition in the cumbustion chambers.
Now if they could cross that with import reliabilty efficiancy and luxery I'd be a happy camper.
You think an intercooler Pipes and Exhaust gives you 100HP?
new intercooler, new ic pipes (upper and lower). new twin scroll unit back for the exhaust including downpipe, high flow cat, and cat back, new turbo pipes, ralliart air intake, and an aem computer to control it all should put me just about there.
You refuse to accept that the muscle car era ended 30 years ago. You refuse to acknowledge a fast car, reguardless of where it's from, while giving it the respect any fast car should deserve.
You are not a car enthusiast. A car enthusiast respects a fast car, reguardless of displacement or turbo size. Stop giving your fellow domestic enthusiasts a bad name.
Rice will NEVER have the heritage or allure of the muscle era. Still to this day kids want 69 mustangs, 69 camaros, 70 Challengers and so on. Noone in 30 years is gonna want a honda civic or any of that chinese shit for that matter. Furthermore NOONE gives their "own" camp a worse name than the rice crowd. 99.9999% of the cars are purely laughable with comedic value
basically the car i got is just very restricted. all the hoses are wound in odd fashions, as is the twin scroll unit on the turbo. dc sports makes a very nice tig welded piece for that though.
the ic pipes are atrocious in my viii, smoothed out ones from ralliart or perrin work wonders.

0-60 time showing great traction from AWD, 0-100 now showing the drag associated with it. Compare it with:
Car & Driver C6Z06 Test:
new intercooler, new ic pipes (upper and lower). new twin scroll unit back for the exhaust including downpipe, high flow cat, and cat back, new turbo pipes, ralliart air intake, and an aem computer to control it all should put me just about there.
Pehraps almost 100 to the flywheel. Super tech power programers don't give that much at all.
Thats just so the car can breath better where is your power :-x

There's a hell of a lot more to handling than lateral G's...
Sure, let's start by examining the tires that come on each of the two cars, shall we? Maybe each car's weight?
EVO is a great car, it's fast and it handles well. It doesn't outhandle a Z06 off the showroom floor, no matter what you think you've seen. It's okay, I'm not calling the EVO a POS, I'm just pointing out it's not the very best of the best like you believe.

all I see is induction system and noise
that's all the car really needs is to breath better. i've been researching these parts pretty exstensively before deciding on perrin etc. i have seen dyno results with the new intercooler alone for 40 whp.
even a conservative estimate of 20 whp would put me well on my way with the other mods.

Fool, you might as well just have said 100% because you're so fucking biased. Thankyou for proving my point.

This is something we'll never agree on, so let's agree on this:
Z06's are excellent cars.
Evo's are excellent cars.
The best handling car is an Elise
The cream of the crop from the site i'm getting this from upgrades tons of stuff, but isnt too cheap. upgraded turbo, cams, ecu, etc for 550whp, 0-60 3 seconds, 11.2 quarter mile.
You could easily add more, but those are the least expensive and most common evo 8 upgrades. The stock turbo is good for 430 hp and tq or around there.

sweet rice boy gave me his sig, I am coming up in the world now. Cubic inches always win little man, remember that
Import beer Import car..man fuck why did you have to pull out a beer?
Now I want one....
Still I know you have a car it's mainly the kid manowar who is obviously lying because his lips/fingers are moving.
I am about to get myself an amberbock.. This SS Driver doesn't drink Budwiser
amberbock is a good brew.
i knew you weren't calling me out on it, i just like taking pics of my baby.
besides, this is all in good fun. i appreciate how into your car you are. it's nice to see people with the same passion for fast cars, even if they are on the opposite side of the import/american fence.
i used to be devoted ford driver. all three of my previous cars have been either ford of mercury. but lately the quality flaws in american cars and ugly designs have pushed me to go foreign, and i am glad i did.
Nice got the greddy aluminum add ons going already. A ricer is born
Yeah, because a radiator cooling plate is all for show... Wait, what?
" Made form 1mm Aluminum and embossed with the GReddy logo, our Air Diversion Panels are designed to not only improve under the engine looks, but to contain airflow to the radiator core, thus, improve cooling efficiency."
