"The engine is older" "most people won't goto this power levels" yada yada point is if they wanted to the 4g is the engine to do it in, go read the thread I posted where X guys even admit it. Sorry, I win here partner.
Did I say they weren't? No, I said many of them are not Evo 8s. The infamous Cyber Evo began life as an Evo 6 I think.

You didn't prove anything. You have not established that the 4B11 lacks potential, merely that no one has currently built one above 900 HP. That is not a statement about potential.

It's a damn good thing your job doesn't require you to prove anything because so far you haven't done a particularly good job of proving anything you've said.

You need help! You know overall the evo x is a better car than the 4g63 evos will ever be. Give up already. You've already lost and dont know it yet.

Your defending the X because you own one but are just being partial.

The 4g63 evos are making higher hp numbers because they have been around a lot longer than evo x's. And shops have had alot more time to toy with them. Thats it. Like I said before, the drivetrain in the evo x as a complete package is much stronger than the evo 8 drivetrain, as a complete package. Game over!

To the OP, get an X you won't regret it. It's the best daily/performance car you can prob buy.

The evo 8 awd system compared to the evo x sh-awd system is trash. You look confused!

[QUOTE=Viegasjuice;11003837]find me ONE x that's over 900hp and ONE that's in the 8's I will wait. Then tell me I'm speculating.



Search youtube and the forum, and you will find evo x's making over 900 hp.

And he's, there's DEF better engines than the 4g63, he'll Hondas k20 is better, just not the 4b11. DEAL with it. And why the hell do I have to explain about time attack, your on an evo forum and don't already know what the evo VIII has done in time attack? Your just playing dumb
Your exaggerating about evo x motors blowing up all the time, also plenty of 4g63 motors have blown too. The evo x motor overall is a better motor than the evo 8 motor over all. The evo x motor has a dual mivec system, which spools up a turbo much faster than an evo 8 motor can. The evo x motor has larger cams and a larger turbo than the evo 8 motor, and will make more power. Also the evo x motor uses a timing chain, which is stronger than a timing belt, that the evo 8 motor uses, and you wont have to worry about snaping a timing belt on the evo x motor when making lots of power. And having the motor destroy itself. It's obvious the evo x motor overall is better than the evo 8 motor overall.

I'm OK with letting you guys argue about silly things, but I'm not OK with anyone saying that I drive a Honda. The next person who says that my car has SH-AWD, instead of S-AWC, gets slapped.

Thanks. [/sarco voce]

You guys tell me that I kill too many threads and delete too many posts and that I need to let the members feel free to chat at will, so I sit back and allow a slow-motion train-wreck to unfold and all you do is come in to remind me that it's all mine.

The big avatar and mail-box is sometimes not worth it.

But, in all honesty, I wouldn't have it any other way.

But I'll still go medieval on anyone who says (again) that I have a Honda. That my car might be less good for racing against men wearing dresses is fine - after all, the point of an X is the AYC and stronger chassis, so the fact that it weighs more than an 8 or 9 is not a big deal to me. But say that I drive a Honda and that's war.
