There's a couple of EVO X's kicking around my neck of the woods too. I saw a grey one today. I still don't like it. It's front end reminds me of an Audi with the black middle section of the bumper. Except the Audi can pull it off and the Evo can't.

44whp gains from open air filter and MBC today on GST dyno though.

+22whp/+22wtq from air filter alone.

No tuning yet, factory tune

Might be ugly but it's taking mods well.

280whp so far.

Both companies want to sell more cars... and in the process ... they sold out.

I would take the new evo in white, i think it looks great in white because of the plastic black front end.

I agree. White is the only color that I can appreciate on that car.

Those are 18x9.5 +22 offset with 275 tires. 17" rims won't fit the Evo X.
