Question about cali evo's
 
I know that cali cars in general are tuned down for state requirements so does that mean that the evos being sold with less power and more gas mileage?

Is it the actual make up of the engine that makes the car tuned down, meaning the components, or is it just the computer that set lower than other cars?

With that said i live in hawaii but would look at south coast mitsu for an evo and have them ship it over for less than what my dealership wants which is $37,000 something for a gsr no sss and is not even on the lot haha (ive only seen mr's).

Haha those evos they have on the lot will be there until 2010 at least. The MRs were upwards of $43k.

All EVO's sold in the USA, are the same. There is no Ca. EVO tuned for 91oct and the rest are 93oct tuned. This has been beat to death more then once.

as far as i know the california evos are slightly heavier? like 5 pounds or something like that? All because of environmental issues. Correct me if im wrong...
