You do realize that the worlds fastest evo 8 is the ams one at like 8.56 i believe. How do you figure that you can beat that with 60grad. ams must have that much money as well as endless dyno and 1/4 mile time for tuning and practice.

id say 9's is good for 60k.

Think about it. a new z06 goes for more than that and runs 11's or 12's stock.

That has nothing to do with this. My car can runs 12s and ive spent 30k including the cost of the car.

I was saying 60k on top of the price of the evo. Sorry for the confusion.

Did anyone else notice a lack of a MAP sensor in the engine bay pics? Also, I believe it is the anti-lag tubes on the exhaust manifold. I wonder what else was different. I wouldn't buy it but it would make someone happy.

O ok. what i was tryin to say is that many reviews say that the z06 is the best performing supercar for its price. That is the only reason i mentioned it.

as far as the evo, still 60K on top of the price of the evo won't get you into the 8's, especially if you don't do all of your own labor. u know what i mean? AMS runs mid 8's with an evo 8. That car is the best of teh best. not everybody can compete with that, even if you have the money. You need the technology, testing, tuning etc... all of which AMS has readily available and a person holding a check for 60K does not.

You really don't think 60k into an evo won't get it into the 8's, ill have to disagree with that, that and the fact that if a person has 60k to spend and they do not get into the 8's the probably have more to throw into the car to get it there.

I'd buy it just couse I want an evo, and the rarity of the car (the evo 7 fact not movie factor). If I had like a lot a lot of money lol. As far as it being in the movie, I could care less. I'm interested in the car not its bad past It has an ugly *** color and wing and ahh too long of a list... i say we haggle the price down a bit for the cost of making this look nice again... :P
