evos are too damn heaver and have no TQ!!
its not about learning how to drive you ***.
its about the car being heavy with an awd system and having no power and tq at all at very low rpms.
all that and being on a real super steap hill and your fu*cked.
if the car is going 5-7mph already in first gear and cant even accelerate and is loosing speed because of the hill. how the hell are u supose to take off from a stop with out murdering the clutch

needs to come out with hill busting 3.5 liter
Silly thread.....sometimes I wonder why people even start threads like this.... I drive thru and around SF all the time....you want steep? Use your ebrake, build some boost and your off.....
hmmmm sorry bro.. u started complaning u have no TQ at low rpm s,, duhhhhh u got a GT 30 & cams .. do u really think ur gonna have big TQ below 3000 rpm ???.. soo stop complaining ab a great car.. if u want to go up hill at 5-7 mph get a turbo thats smaller than a 16g so ull have enough boost at 1000rpm to go at the slowest speed u want up hill or put the stock turbo back on n tune it wit antilag...
sorry this is just a rant.
today i was on a HUGE STEAP hill. and the evo just has no power at all before the turbo. with a awd system and such a heavy car the evo should have came with a bigger engine.
the hill was so steep that I could notgo slower than 10mph. as soon as i wnt slower to about 5mph the car just did not have any power or tq to accelerate to its power band. then when i come to a complete stop, its almost impossible to get going again cuz of the huge hell and tiny engine. the only way to get moving again was to slip and burn the hell out of the clutch untill you were up to 10mph. that one hill made the car stink of burn clutch for days.
the evo is just a DOG before 1500 rpm
anyone else have problems with huge hills?

duh! you can't compare evo to V8 muscle. at 1500 rpm of course V8 will have more low end torque than evo. if you have to drive a very steep hill, put in first gear, i drove on steep hills b4, man, turbo loves hill. if you are driving in 2nd gear at 1500rpm, of course its sluggish.
