More than likely tuning due to different emissions regulations.

"When asked by regular consumers about the daily drivability of the current Evo, we relate to a 100 lb woman trying to take a pit bull on a casual walk."
ON SALE: January 2008
BASE PRICE: $29,000 (est)
DRIVETRAIN: 2.0-liter, 295-hp, 300-lb-ft turbocharged l4; awd, five-speed manual
CURB WEIGHT: 3,344 lb.
0-60 MPH: 5.0 sec (mfr)
FUEL ECONOMY (EPA): 26 mpg (est)
"Despite all the added size, structure and systems, the new Evo MR with the six-speed TC-SST is just 100 pounds heavier (including 11 pounds of sound deadener) than the 2006 Evolution IX MR. The infinitely more tunable GSR with the five-speed manual is just 59 pounds heavier."
Where are the fools that said the X will cost 40K+ and weigh 300 lbs more.

The added structure, combined with the 1.0-inch-longer wheelbase and 1.2-inch-wider track, results in a far more composed ride—no more “tin can on wheels” feel. Steering is lighter but retains its instant response and on-center feel, while losing some of the car’s hyper-twitchiness, vibration and shimmy. Braking is as strong as ever, with big Brembo calipers clamping 13.8-inch rotors in front and 13.0s in back.
Atleast the X doesn't feel like a tin can compared to the older evos lol.
Oh and 59 lbs for all that **** they added is ashtonising
Good job mitsu!
