Wasn't there so can't comment, but the difference between my westie and my old Scoob (288bhp - so not quite as quick as yours
) is phenominal.
c350bhp per tonne (ie over 100 more than even tuned Scoobs) and far better drag co-efficient I would stack the odds in the plastic pigs favour
To add weight - when out on the test drive, we comfortably out dragged a new 911 turbo from a roundabout upto around 120mph even though I had my eyes closed for most of it

AH WELL WHY NOT,
I must say that after owning my BIG RED 7 for a while and getting past the 4500 mile running-in period it is getting very quick day after day and is about the same now with only 4800 mile on the clock standard, as my old de-catted P1 with 8500k, had a little bit of fun with a WRX (de-catted and chipped)but had a good bit on him.
I would say that they are both fantastic machines as they are not Fords!
but overall i think that Evo's are a cleaner cut,more puroseful and rewarding car.

Until you know you will never know, but when you know you will know.
