oh and the stock IC looks kinda small, not like the EVO's that is more prominant in the front. the SRT's is somewhat hidden, so its not as noticable. so guys like making it more prominant, on top of the power gains. factory is almost never the best, unfortunatly
Well I wont get into "from a roll"....
but at the drag strip, I actually think it would be pretty close depending on driver. Only reason I say that is that the SRt-4 will always be traction limited to a point. I dont know if your mods will overtake that first 1/8th mile or so....Evo responds very well to a full 3 inch exhaust...more so than other cars that I know. If you are dyno'ing at 250 whp, that Evo will be close to that as well.
So I think it would go either way....toss up

If they do, they're either stupid/rookie/ or got a really really fast car.

SRT-4 guy, your Evo friend never had a chance against you without a piggyback or reflash. Tell him to do one of the above and the cars will be more equal. Is he registered here? Some cam gears in addition to the ECU tuning would certainly turn the tide in his favor. I hope you were on a track, and good kill.

he has:

Cold air intake

I have:
Stage 1 (PCM and 577cc injectors)
AGP wastegate actuator (spike is 17-18 drop to 15 at redline)
3'' downpipe
BIG intercooler (new=24in X 12 X 3.5 vs stock = 24 X 6 X 2)
intercooler piping w/ bov
msd coil pack and 8.5 mm wires
oh and i dynoed at 250hp and 281tq without the intercooler
