Whats the shifting like on the sst? Does it shift smoothly when driving non aggressive? I've driven a 5speed evox and thought the gear spacing was horrible for the cars powerband, but then again I hear the sst cant handle much power? Asking because im thinking of getting one.
@foolongtea When I test drove a 2010 EVO, It just didn't feel right with the automatic/paddle shifting system. It was smooth, but there was something missing. I then test drove a 10 GTS model with a full manual transmission and even though it has no turbo, and is FWD, it felt like it had more get up and go with that 2.4 size engine where the EVO only has a 2.0. When you look at the specs the EVO supposedly has more power and all, but in my test drives I preferred the GTS which was $10-15k less
@adogg619 Well I am going by personal experience while test driving both vehicles. Every one has different experiences while driving a car. I was just saying that for the extra $10-15k the EVO costs over the GTS, it just didn't seem worth to pay more. There are many car reviews that see the Ralliart version as a better car for the price over the EVO version.
i love how people will argue about anything.....i'll admit that both evo's and sti'are pretty quick. faster than my hhr ss if driven correctly. but i can admit it. i dont see the point in arguing lol
quick car!! the problem is i lack faith in mitsu reliability and the subaru is butt ugly! BOTH kings of rally...... although the subaru does make a better sound with the horizontally opposed 4 whereas the mitsu just sounds like a civic with a turbo...... you have to ask yourself what sense you want to use more...... sight or sound!
@Tekhsheen Well. You guys have been lucky then.. Because I've heard alot of horror stories.. From the eclipse Gs-T days, to recently when people were having problems w/ their new evos blowing up, and dealerships refused to fix because they said they were being autocrossed, which voided the warranty..
@bliglum It depends if they decided to mod their evo's as well. Besides, there are horror stories all over the manufacturers; for example, honda's tranny problem, reliability issues with vw's, even the new mini's were recalled for fire hazards. You have to still give credit that it is manufactured by a japanese company with a rich heritage dating pre-ww2; unlike vw's which are still POS's
STI is still behind the EVO. The evo beats it in drag and handling. STI gets better mpg though I believe. The EVO has beaten the STI in every professional test.
damn 5.0 electronically nannied evos, my stock 05 wrx WAGON does it in 5.5. not that 0-60 times really matter. i like evos, i just prefer the car that you drive buy your self, and not with the aid of computers..
You realise it has launch control? Deactivate the traction control, put it in D: S-Sport and hold the brake with the left foot while revving to 5k with the right. Release brake, wonder why everything has gone blurry....
@SuperGuitarMaster6 i didnt say the sti is quicker. i just pointed out that you are wrong. these numbers are from their websites. sti has 305 hp and the evo has 291.
@Barissa96 lol yes an evo takes 7 seconds to go 0-60 when a 2012 civic si can do 6.5 seconds lol get real 5 seconds would be close to more accurate id say probably around 5.5 maybe 5.7 for evo lol learn a little bit about cars lol
@skyline9878 What do you mean. A NSX is pure Honda. The NSX introduced variable valve timing with this car, which every company now uses in their engines (VTEC) everyone else has just had to develop a different name for it.
@Solumic No duh. What i meant is that unless the honda is an NSX, it it still a honda, as in a commuter car. NSX is only honda worth talking about. Also an evo can go toe to toe with an NSX and with aftermarket, evo runs away.
WHAT A JOKE! HOW ARE YOU GONNA DO A ACCELERATION VIDEO WITHOUT LAUNCH CONTROL??? HAHA EPIC FAIL! AND THE EVO X-MR IS A FAIL TOO! AUTOMATIC SUCKS, AND SO DOES THA PADDLE SHIFT CRAP... EVO X-GSR(MANUAL) FTW!!
@adogg619 actually when it comes to an Evo, it does matter, cause the automated gearbox Evo X has its limits when it comes to modding ,not only that Stock on Stock the Evo X-GSR(manual) is a bit quicker in the quarter mile than the Evo X-MR(dual clutch automated gearbox) Evo X-GSR 13.6 - Evo X-MR 13.9 (you pay $3,000.00 more on the sticker price for the Evo X-MR(sst automated gear box) its not WORTH IT,especially once you start modding & if you see an Evo X in the 11s-its most likely manual
@princeofroyalty2 My Evo X Mr Details.. HKS Intercoller Piping kit, with HKS Spec R Intercooler. HKS racing suction kit, Hks Gt Extension Kit HKS Hi Power racing exhaust,FP Red turbo. 1000 CC Injectors, and Trani Intercooler. My X MR Does 0-100km/h 3.8 Sec on 98 octone. Surely faster than any evo 9,8,7 on street.
@CHARLIETWW I know, and it sounds so sexy... i have been told.. good thing is, it looks stock evo X, dnt have any stickers or anything to attract attention
@W4TCH4W I checked "List of Nürburgring Nordschleife lap times" again. I didn't realized that Evo IX was on the list, and it's very likely that Evo X can make it in less than 8 mins. If that''s case, it will put Evo X on par with Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4, Porsche 911 Turbo 997, Ferrari F430 and other supercars! WTF, that's outrageously fast! I'll own a EVO without the price tag of a supercar! I'll probably save enough money for a Evo XI !
Oh by the way i don't think it will run under 8 seconds because even though it has the new S-AWC and all that it is still heavier so thinking they even out i say around 8:05- 8:10 i hope somebody runs it and prove me wrong and you right :D
@wajalama In reality, Evos are not supercars, but for their price tags, their performance is quite impressive. Look forward to seeing how the next gen Evo performs.
@CHARLIETWW It should perform actually quite well unlike what everyone thinks. It may be a hybrid, which kind of sucks, but at least hopefully it'll get better MPG while still kickin butt. I just hope it still has a nice exhaust note.
@wajalama An evo may be faster in laps. But does not have the refinment and artistic features that you pay for with an exotic. Two different kind of car's. Trust me you ride in a evo built and you will undstand why it can make it around the track so fast. I mean the evo is faster than my Acura. But my Acura is just more car.
@Solumic Uh, I never mentioned anything about the Evo being more refined than a Porsche, etc. I was just debunking the other guy's comment about how a stock Evo can lap the Nurburgring in less than 8 minutes in a stock Evo, that's just not possible.
Of course a super-car has more luxury, etc. etc. compared to an Evo, lol.
do you do these times at a more quicker style such as manual with launch controll and such cause automatic 0-60 this thing slows down a generous amount
@beampoc7 It's Dual clutch you IDIOT! Try affording one and you will understand how much better it is. Not only does it have launch control but when you are in manual mode its just that like that a manual.. Dont get it confused with triptronic, far from it.
@Frittrich traffic, lazyness, maybe a inability.. such as back problems or something like that, i dunno... in my case sure its fun to drive manual, but id rather just lay back and cruise around without being paying attention at when to shift
@Frittrich Yeah. I'd take this over the GSR's tranny simply because I hate manual trannys in traffic. Sure its fun, but it's agonizing in bumper to bumper.
@themomopan well, you're right. that's new. but a real evolution is a standard. you don't buy an automatic evolution for rallying or for everyday driving. same reason you don't put a towing hitch on a car. absolutely pointless.
@Turb0Tuner they chose to do the twin clutch auto because it shifts faster, is more accurate, leaves less room for driver error i suppose, im surprised that they didn't make the manual an option though....weird right?
I have sustained 26 mpg for about 30 miles in mine at the time it was bone stock. This was in 6th gear cruising at 55-60 on a highway, so it can be done.
@ktrazy This clip sounds fine here. We did have some sync problems early on, but they were fixed quite a while back. What type of computer setup are you running?
@mpgomatic I'm running Mac OS X with Google Chrome. The Volkswagen GTI 0-60 video was correctly synced with my Mac, but pretty much all the other videos were out of sync.
@ExiiTZz dude are you kidding me? how can u know that? source plz,, anyways i dont care if they stop making it... i already bought me a evo x fully load,, SSS/Aero kit/navi/ oh yea am full so i dont care if mitsu stops make it...
but i would like to know who told u that big lie...
@k00lball3r Ok can you please explain whats bad about turbo lag??? im not talking down on you its a serious question. First of all i know what turbo lag is but what i want to know is whats bad about it? if originally your car goes from 0-60 in 5 sec and you put a turbo in yes it will lag but will it even ruin your speed? its the same as having a NA engine while its lagging but when the turbo kicks in it boosts your cars HP but i just dont see why ppl complain about turbo lag??? please lmk.
@kr4zyr4ver turbo lag is only 2-3 secs of stepping on the gas with little to no power and then finally you have power, as in u step on gas and there isnt much go until 2-3 sec, if u have a supercharged or n/a engine then you would have instant power when u stepped on the gas. its not that serious, just personal prefrence if u ask me .
@breck569 you can modify the audi for more power with different tunning maps. But you'll lose that engine's purpose which is to be efficient. With EVO you'll be lucky if you see 20mpg out of a tank of gas. The two are made for completely different purposes in mind.
@MLGaKuRit My friend has the same exact car as yours and it's stock. Never seen past 20, and he definitely drive conservatively, but mostly city. If you compare highway mpg, the other day the Audi told me that I had 34mpg doing a trip to Chicago, but that's hard to believe and computer was jumping all over the places between 34 to 39. It all depends on where you drive and how you were driving it. If you windmill it I'm sure you'll get past 30 with a Evo, but same conditions, Audi has better mpg.
@yuning83 ohh yeah, Audi has better mpg for sure. Just saying my IX can easily get over 20. But then again, that's when I drive it like a saint, and I'm in Florida, so it's all flat, no hills.
@MLGaKuRit 25 is pretty good considering it's performance. I wouldn't mind owning one myself. But I live where my friend lives, and since he can't get it to pass 20, I doubt I can out do him that much. lol
It's your fuel mag, it's got a nasty hole. That's why you're unloading in third. Lengthen the injecting pulse another millisecond just tune the nos timer you'll run 9's

@Turb0Tuner they chose to do the twin clutch auto because it shifts faster, is more accurate, leaves less room for driver error i suppose, im surprised that they didn't make the manual an option though....weird right?
tbirdsport302 10 months ago
@tbirdsport302 Um... manual is an option? At least in the USA it is.. Get the GSR... it's the 5 speed stick shift.. MR is the 6 speed TCSST.

I have sustained 26 mpg for about 30 miles in mine at the time it was bone stock. This was in 6th gear cruising at 55-60 on a highway, so it can be done.

Why is it that almost all of your videos aren't synced with the sound?
ktrazy 11 months ago
@ktrazy This clip sounds fine here. We did have some sync problems early on, but they were fixed quite a while back. What type of computer setup are you running?
mpgomatic 11 months ago
@mpgomatic I'm running Mac OS X with Google Chrome. The Volkswagen GTI 0-60 video was correctly synced with my Mac, but pretty much all the other videos were out of sync.
ktrazy 11 months ago
@ktrazy Interesting. I usually use Firefox on OSX here ... no problems with sync. I'll install Chrome and check it out.

k00lball3r 1 year ago
@k00lball3r Ok can you please explain whats bad about turbo lag??? im not talking down on you its a serious question. First of all i know what turbo lag is but what i want to know is whats bad about it? if originally your car goes from 0-60 in 5 sec and you put a turbo in yes it will lag but will it even ruin your speed? its the same as having a NA engine while its lagging but when the turbo kicks in it boosts your cars HP but i just dont see why ppl complain about turbo lag??? please lmk.
kr4zyr4ver 1 year ago
@kr4zyr4ver turbo lag is only 2-3 secs of stepping on the gas with little to no power and then finally you have power, as in u step on gas and there isnt much go until 2-3 sec, if u have a supercharged or n/a engine then you would have instant power when u stepped on the gas. its not that serious, just personal prefrence if u ask me .

breck569 1 year ago
@breck569 because audis puts out 100 less horsepower than this does.
adammdamann 1 year ago
@breck569 you can modify the audi for more power with different tunning maps. But you'll lose that engine's purpose which is to be efficient. With EVO you'll be lucky if you see 20mpg out of a tank of gas. The two are made for completely different purposes in mind.
yuning83 1 year ago
@yuning83 Wrong. My Evo IX MR get around 25 mpg when I drive conservatively. Plus it's modded and tuned, stock would be even better.
MLGaKuRit 11 months ago
@MLGaKuRit My friend has the same exact car as yours and it's stock. Never seen past 20, and he definitely drive conservatively, but mostly city. If you compare highway mpg, the other day the Audi told me that I had 34mpg doing a trip to Chicago, but that's hard to believe and computer was jumping all over the places between 34 to 39. It all depends on where you drive and how you were driving it. If you windmill it I'm sure you'll get past 30 with a Evo, but same conditions, Audi has better mpg.
yuning83 11 months ago
@yuning83 ohh yeah, Audi has better mpg for sure. Just saying my IX can easily get over 20. But then again, that's when I drive it like a saint, and I'm in Florida, so it's all flat, no hills.
MLGaKuRit 11 months ago
@MLGaKuRit 25 is pretty good considering it's performance. I wouldn't mind owning one myself. But I live where my friend lives, and since he can't get it to pass 20, I doubt I can out do him that much. lol
yuning83 11 months ago
Seriously guys. I just typo'd. What I meant to say was 0-60 in 4.6 seconds and through the 1/4 in 103mph. Simple mistake.
