Let me actually get the kit finished and installed, then my standalone installed and tuned, THEN we'll race, and he'll still kick my ass from a stop thanks to his gay AWD
Maybe from a roll?

What do you think your probe will run in 1/4 after you install your kit and the standalone? I'm not really familiar with probes and was wondering how fast you can make them.

Regular Lancer tail lights will not fit, since the rears of those cars are not flared, while the EVO's tail lights conform to its rear flares. The Japanese models have all red tail lights

My car will have excellent tuning, less weight than most, limited slip(most don't have), and a bit more power.
So who knows! It'll all be traction limited.

I rode in one yesterday with 300miles on it as the driver banged through the gears...very nice car
It seems to pull nicely to about 5500rpm...but seems to die off in the top-end for some reason. We suspect it's a problem with the blow-off valve leaking.
I definitely wouldn't mind having one. Has all of the goodies you'd want, plus a factory warranty.

Ill say it again..The STi is running less boost, on a bigger motor with a better LSD. As of right now it will outperform the Evo with minimal mods and possibly stock (too early to tell). BUt.... holy shit. We have both these cars now. Its a good time in the auto world.
