I like the GC8 Impreza and the CP9A Lancer EVO (V, VI & TME) a whole lot more that the current ones...

So the EVO 8 stock is still faster than your 2.5 modded w/ the turbo right?
I raced a 2.5rs w/ a turbo kit on it last year in my Bimmer and beat it by about a car length, and I run about 14.5, so he must have been mid-high 14s

I can see why the Mitsu rally team wants to use the Colt. The Evo is HUGE!.

Well since he's still in his break-in period we haven't "raced" upto redline...but leaving the park he got on the gas up to 5K in 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear I think....I was keeping up with him (not losing nor gaining ground)...but if we to go to his redline like I was having to do he would have been pulling away from me. Too bad MY redline is 6K Have seen what it can do and driven it..makes me want a bigger turbo

Last time I ran my car I did a 14.2, but since then I've added some stuff, but I don't think he helped much
