Hello all!

I have been looking for an evo for awhile, but then I took a look at 09 ralliarts... Newer, same prices or so... So I may consider getting one I dont know yet... Is there such a ig difference? Have you tried both? Is it easily modifiable? What would you do..?

 

Ralliart vs. Evo, the Evo is way easier to modify. Not as touchy, higher hp from factory, etc. The SST is the big limiter in the RA, but depending on your power goals, that may not matter.

 

The IX by a Mile, proper 4G63, proper transmission, bigger turbo, Iron block. No contest IMHO. VIII's can be rough but I'd still take an VIII in proper forum.

 

Totally agree with this statement

 

What kind of things are you looking for? Manual vs auto, insurance costs, mileage, horsepower numbers, cost of modding, interior comfort and upgrades. All things that must be specified to figure out which one suits you better.

 

+1 or an VIII would be good too. plenty of power to be had.

 

If you can get an evo IX in decent condition, and don't care for interior 'luxuries' then I would say that's a better bet. Consider what it is you want to do with the future wif... Car I mean.

 

For Power >>> all year EVO all the way.
For interior >>> 09+ Ralliart or 09+ EVO. They are not the best interior but a lot better than the previous generations for sure.

However, if you buy an EVO, make use it is in good condition!!!
