strong or weak evo

how do you know whether or not you have a strong built evo or a weak built evo....? my synchro went out at 10,000 miles does that make mine a weak evo?

Usually "strong" or "weak" is referring to the engine power.

Depends on which dyno and the numbers other evos have put down on that dyno.

Its all relative

Yeah, mine is stock except for exhaust, intake, mbc, bov, fuel pump, alky, ported mani, o2 housing, ported hotside, and a custom dynoflash. Your questions here are very strange.

Most 2003s and 2004s are that low, not 2005s and 2006s.

That's just dumb. Who are these "a lot of people" that you rely on for determining what to do with your Evo? Are they the local elementary school kids at the park? It amazes me how people can manage to have enough money to buy an Evo, yet have nothing going on upstairs...

I'm not sure what you want us to answer for you? Do you have strong powerwise EVO, well my guess is it's about average for a 2005. As far as build quality, I guess it's not as strong. Then again I'm not sure, maybe your at fault, more than your EVO. Who knows, well you do.
