Lexus and Mitsubishi = totally different animals. Evo uses aluminum and carbon for weight savings. A full weight evo weighs about 3400lbs. Full weight SC is about 3300lbs. The actual weight is in favor of the sc300. The only difference is the Evo is engineered to distribute that weight in track conditions. An SC300 was made to feel like a quality car when driving. Drive the two cars and you'll realize how cheap the Evo feels. Had the SC been engineered to handle like it was on rails it would've been lighter and had stiffer suspension. And a more track friendly engine combo.
As they sit side by side now the Evo will run laps around even a track prepped SC300 due to the clumsy weight it possess'. An Evo is an awesome car in its own right but to compare to an SC300 which isn't even in the same class is kind of silly.

But once you turbo the sc300, (2jz-gte that is) swap out the tranny and rear differential. And put on ls400 calipers, you'll prob be right back to the 100-150 weight difference.

Here are the specs from XSPower
T61 T4 turbocharger (.84AR Hot .70AR Cold, 3" V-Band Out) - compare to Masterpower T70.
As far as stalling goes I don't really have issues. It wants to sometimes but it comes back up. Usually a blip of the throttle and its fine. The car drives pretty much the same way it did when it was NA. Now it just has a little more noise when you hit the throttle.
