Evo X: Let the modding begin!
Round one comes from HKS, as they've had a demo model for about a month now....I think I like what I see:
Looks like they've extracted ~380hp out of the stock turbo already, and this is on a car equipped with the SST tranny!

Re: Evo X: Let the modding begin!
About 40% more power with just an intake, exhaust, EVC and F-Con, not bad! Now if they could take about 700 lbs out of it....

Re: Evo X: Let the modding begin!
Quick vid with a walkaround of that HKS car. I like the top IC pipe they did, wish we could see more details....

I'm really starting to grow fond of them over the Subaru.
However, the Subaru Legacy GT is beautiful.

Re: Evo X: Let the modding begin!
Are they still going to be as expensive as the previous Evos? Or probably more...

No, I'm just the first person who's come along here in quite a while who is interested in a competing (ie. regularly scheduled events involving points and a championship) in something other than drag racing and I get chastised for it by you and everyone else. Until I see you and the other dyno queens out there doing something similar then you have no ground to stand on.

Re: Evo X: Let the modding begin!
Cone dodging in a parking lot is gaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.
Tracks days at BIR and the like are sweet.

Hehe, I don't mean to chastize you for it, I just like poking fun! I just don't track my car at all, it's a street car, no road courses, no autoX, no drag racing, and I'd hardly consider my car a dyno queen, since I drive it every day and it does not exactly put down uber-boastful numbers.
More on topic, I wonder how well the SST tranny in the X is would handle an auto-X course... |
