hey guys / girls i have a quick ? i am looking in to buy an evo .... but i want to ask some of the owners what they think.... so here my ? i am going to be " racing my car all the time and spending alot of money on it as i did with my srt4 but anywhooo should i get the MR or the RS ......... i am going to be putting cf hood and trunk and afthermarket sound system.... and well mods from AMS....... .. please give me as mush info as you can on whats the differnce in both of them...

 

depends if you want a 5 speed or 6 speed tranny. cause most the differnces will be replaced anyway

 

what tranny if better for "racing" does the sixth grear really make a diff?

 

5 speed is better for drag and straight line racing, if your into auto-x and road racing the 6 speed would be useful.

 

The carbon fiber hood, truck, and aftermarket sound system ALWAYS helps complete a "race car."

 

kk thanks thats what i really wanted to know!! rs is it thanks ALOT GUYS!

 

I'll never understand why people put CF hoods on EVO's... I guess I dont play need for speed enough or something.

 

GET the RS less weigth

 

wrong the stock six speed has weak/thin 4-6 gears and auto-xing/road racing will reek havoc on those gears and overheat them

the five speed is better all around

c/f hood saves you about half a pound at best...some even weigh more

and WTF would you put an after market sound system in a car you intend to race?

 

RS

 

there you go. why would you put unecessary weight if your going to race your car. that's why your going to buy a RS to lessen the weight.

 

Don't most CF hoods weigh more than the stock aluminum hoods? If you have to have rice do us all a favor and keep your Neon or get a Honda. Just don't ruin an Evo with all your ricer crap.

Another question. Why do you use all those periods between your broken sentences? In the English language one period will sufice.

 

I don't think that a CF trunk is such a bad idea. The stock lid/wing weigh ~30lbs and a good CF lid is ~12lbs or less. Granted, if one isn't looking to lose the wing, the cost/benefit of such a mod isn't exactly advantageous. I do agree with the overall thrust of your comment.

 

If you're going to be road racing, I would say the RS would be better since it's a bit lighter than the rest.

There are a lot of track ****** on this forum so you might get better response asking in the roadrace forum.

 

you are a scammer and thanks for not answering my phone calls, not responding to instant messages, text messages or pms. Sorry you are 19 years old and have all this money and can't send someone their safcII and tach driver, or refund their money, and don't give the addy excuse again becasue i sent it to you on aim, and pm'd it to you at least 4 times...best of luck with finding an evo, that you said you already had hahahahhahahahaah
