What about a bigger displacement engine for more low-end torque?

CRUISE CONTROL! And 8000 rpm redline with variable valve timing. A really, really tall top gear would be nice too, something like 1000 rpms for every 35-40 mph.

Create a more "limited production" mystique and manufacture less EVO's.

I would like each evo come fully stocked with 6 monkeys. Dressed as bad a$$ pirates so i can train them to steal stuff. And some candy bars.

for a majority of evos on this forum, we have atleast some bolt-on mods so a stock evo with more power is almost moot. i would really like if the evo GSR comes much closer to the JDM ones, 6 speed + ACD + AYC.

Wow, I thought 6 speed for all models would be ahead.

I think Mitsubishi is going to go bankrupt before the next Evolution debuts.

The only things I think they NEED to put in the IX over the '05 are AYC, MIVEC, and cruise control...and either fix the ghetto climate control knobs or put in auto climate control.
