Newbie/General ForumBeginner/basic questions and general EVO discussion. Specific questions should be asked in a focused forum below. This area is for the newbies.
If you want a track car get the Evo 8 RS. If you want to run stock turbo on your car get a Evo9. The 9 turbo is much better than the 8's turbo. You can tune an 8 turbo around 24-25psi on 93 octane and you can tune a 9 at 27-29psi on 93 octane. Mivec is nice for a street car but for an all out drag car or track car it is debatable . The 5 speed trans is far superior to the 6 speed trans. If you plan on anything more than basic bolt ons with a 6 speed you are playing with fire. I would never recommend the 6 speed to anyone especially considering you cannot get parts for the 6 speed. If you destroy a synchro from a miss shift you need to buy the whole gear set or new trans, i hope mitsu will offer parts to rebuild them but as for now only 5 speeds are able to be rebuilt.
WOW i was going to look at 2 MR friday should i just hold off and look or an se i want to shoot for 500hp and thats all i would be happy with 5 or even 430
