The table I am referencing is indeed Evo 10/RA only.

You may add BOV flutter as well to titillate your aural pleasures.

"Sorry honey, unless it increases the chances of insemination, I'm not doing it. Only missionary with the lights off for me."
if i am driving hard over 3600rpm, i really don't care how much my evo consumption is. Below that when i am driving normally or cruising the pops and bangs tune is not in effect so doesn't matter. sometimes in city driving in a first and second gear shift pops a bit but i cant say that is actually measureable incrase regarding of fuel economy, in my case anyway.
although i am guessing it should raise the fuel consumption, but indont really care its 18 or 17 mpg. its not a prius which has only one bragging rights, and even that is not that great lol

I saw an old ast 5300 review for your race Evo. Did you put digressive valves in there? You gave pretty good review on them. Theres a set of those on sale in the classifieds. Do you have more detail to add after having used them for a while- or, how did you change your setup on them over time?

" In many ways, it’s a modern-day Mitsubishi Evo, born to flatter the driver, but also to deliver those hero moments that you can’t wait to embellish in the pub"

that is how you win over many car makers to buy the RS lol

No mention of the "fake" noises, just the exhaust notes (on all the cars). Again, the brits just don't care.
