Good news for 2005 Evo.
Looks like they are getting a slight HP bump and the best thing is that all models now will come stock with a front Helical LSD and even better, a driver controlled electric center diff. The choice get's harder!

i like the way they look, but if they didnt do anything to make the drivetrain stronger then they still suck...

Agree with Leo 100%. That is definetly where they're lacking. They look better than a sti IMO.

I think the current one now is rated 271hp & the 2005 should be around 281hp.

hmmm, did torque change at all. Mitsubishi should just crank up the boost and beat the STi all day long.
