Evo not that good!!!
Has anybody checked out the specs on the new evo. Its got a frontmount. Mutch larger turbo. AND its running 19lbs of boost. With only 273 horses. If my subi was running 19lbs with a front mount It would have a lot more power than that. WEAK!

Here's some pre-Autoshow pics I took of the Evo8. I did sit in it and and checked out the interior and for the most part..it's kinda cheap although the Recaros were excellent!! In all honesty... this version did not make me feel like I was sitting in a "supercar" or anything at that level.
But don't get me wrong... I still would like to own one..and maybe put an Evo6 bodykit on it.
btw.. I think the official stats is 271HP only. And the rep told me it might be out around mid-march or so.
here's more from here...

Yes but the evo that owned it was 280hp and has all the neat gadgets. Our Evo will not be comparible. Our STI on the other hand, is closer to a spec-C STI than a regular JDM STI, exept with an EJ25 of course.
