Of course a standard vette would beat a standard evo down the strip, the evo is a 2ltr where the vette has 5.7ltrs. It would only beat it by a second or 2 tho. Evo is a rally bred car too designed to take corners at high speeds.

wrong friking coloum

lol AKDejaVu, they make cars like the tiger cause the engineering companies are all ways trying to out do each other and they are top at the moment. Its an awsome bit of kit:)

You gonna drive the ring in your 1600 lb 360 hp Lancer? LOL

I think you are having metric confusion. It's more like 3100 lb and 260 hp.

hes got it running 360 at the mo, but hes increasing the boost and making it to a 2.2 ltr, some stronger pistons etc.

It's definitely 360 hp funked. I was in the passenger seat, swoopy was in the back.

He's having an engine rebuild in March with all sorts of modifications.

Not sure on the weight though - I don't think he's had any lightening done (although it is the Japanese import version). Probably just the standard weight.

I love Evos. Subaru screwed up the Impreza beyond all recognition with the last face lift (check their sales figures). The 2003 car goes some way to rectifying it - but I'd rather have an Evo and be a little more individualistic. I've only seen one Evo on the roads all year (and I was riding in it

). There are 3 lads at work with Impreza turbos.
