owen developments do the tuning...only 100 to be made (originally 30) based on the MR FQ320.

 

Hi,


I lived in Europe 27 years, this FQ400 is really old news, you can order the kit but prepare to spend $60000 including the car.
To me is not worth the extra money, you will get at the most a few tenths of second quicker but not that much after all.
Ralliart has some stages and they are compatible with the Mitsunishi warranty but again at high cost.

Here I have in front of me the Spanish version of Car and driver(the magazine is actually made by Car and Driver) but is intended to the Spanish market(Spain,Europe) NOT (Spain ,Mexico).

Anyway, the magazine that I have shows the Mitsubishi Evolution VII RS2 versus the European 2.0 STI (265hp 6 speed).

The EVO price tag is 47,635 Euros= $61925 1.3 conversion rate(Euro to $)
The STI cost 39,423 Euros = $51249

By the way, for the first time in history, the magazine Atomovil purchased the first all wheel drive dyno exclusively to test AWD cars. The EVOVII rated at 280hp(in Europe) managed to produce 311hp to the flywheel, no wonder why the EVO's dynoed more power than the STI (239whp versus 233 on STI) on Motor and Trend Oct 04 MR&STI shootout moreover the EVO still accelerate a bit better than the STI. Uhmmmm , does it ring the bell.
