Eleven versions of Evo VIII!

USDM Evo RS (5 speed No AYC alum roof)
USDM Evo VIII (5 speed No AYC)
USDM Evo MR (6 speed No AYC alum roof)

UK Evo VIII 260 (5 speed AYC)
UK Evo VIII MR FQ300 (6 speed AYC alum roof)
UK Evo VIII MR FQ320 (6 speed AYC alum roof)
UK Evo VIII MR FQ340 (6 speed AYC alum roof)
UK Evo VIII MR FQ400 (6 speed AYC alum roof)

JDM Evo VIII MR GSR (6 speed AYC alum roof)
JDM Evo VIII MR RS (6 speed AYC alum roof)
JDM Evo VIII MR RS (5 speed AYC alum roof)


I think they should just consolidate, save money and give everyone FQ400 for $30K

Duh. I know that. I'm talking about the 3 versions of the RS and 5 versions of the MR. My point is for Mitsu to just bring the goods man. USDM Evo VIII and the MR should have AYC.

Sorry but I would rather have LSD over AYC ..... more robust and cheaper to fix ...

I wonder how much the AYC (active yaw control = torque converter) helps on handling compare to without.

I know it helps but would it be a lot more noticeable?
