Evo X's new redesigned engines(redesigned from the 9's) are way more responsive to bolt ons than STI's. this one dude was running about 2-3k in bolt-on mods and was pushing 400 whp. not only that but the transmission is beefy in that thing (the 5 speed manual) Stock it can handle way more hp than how it comes. people have tried breaking that engine and it just isn't giving in. only complaint i hear is the plastic gas pedal breaking haha

This is what i've heard of course not from personal experience. Anyway... i know evo and sti drivers and all the evo drivers are like damn wish i got an sti and all the sti guys are like damn wish i got an evo... hahah.

hahaha thats true man. Sti and Evo should work together. Both nice rides, but I'm a slight fan of Subaru because of their signature boxer rumble hehe but to own one..? nah..for the same price I rather get a Z hahaha

see you around.
If it handles like you're on rails, you aren't driving fast enough.
