keep in mind that the 9 had the older hp ratings while the X has the newer SAE (more stringent) hp ratings
Er...that's fine and dandy...but don't berate me on math when you can't read. Take a look at the quote that I clipped. It says that the car had 276hp, which is to the best of my knowledge, less than 286hp.

And if the standards now are more stringent, than the HP numbers should further reinforce my statement.

the 276 number is the jdm engine (probably underrated)...its a known fact the the US one will have 295 hp

and as far as the new stringent #'s, that means if the evo X was rated at the same standard as your evo 9, it would have moer than 295

for example, the 05 rsx-s has 210 hp, but for 06, honda rerated all their engines for the new SAE standard, so for 06 the rsx-s was rerated at 201, but its the same engine

Super nice car. I love the 4g63, but the daily commute between Baltimore and DC in mostly stop and go traffic has me looking very seriously at that sequential automatic and cruise control.
