As good as the Evo is it will still suffer on pull away from Turbo lag unless it was being bounced off the rev limiter.

Zippy
not true we were numberplate to numberplate on the way back from southend, TOG with his launchcontrol & anti-lag on and me with no toys. I think tripple will clarify this as well

I can launch though

Are we going to be seeing evocarl vs tripple og at an event near you coming soon... [Alloy puts on his Don King attire)

if the evo is 230 bhp/ton and the scooby is 240 bhp /ton then there is another factor involved somewhere becasue only 10 bhp/ton difference between these cars is naff all in reality and the result would be totally driver dependant,to be able to catch up and draw level and then go past requires a much bigger power advantage than 10 bhp/ton.

so that droning noise holding the revs wasn't your launch control then and the bangs and flames weren't anti lag , ok i'll go away and do some more research

Best you do

But to pull past on the launch isn't that hard as the EVO's launch wasn't up to scratch....

And the WRX has got a better torque curve... I believe it.
The evo is 1400kg and has 344bhp.

Now work out the P/W ratio

i agree with nisr227, we will all have to pile up to the pod and have a few blasts down the track its all in good fun anyway.

friend and I set up a little tussle a few weeks back now.

2 guys that can drive.

Evo 8 mr340 with decat and STI type r 365bhp@ scoobyclinic.

differance was a matter of inches, which is kinda strange with the weight differance being pretty big. ( I was in the scoob).

I beat a Evo with 400bhp down the pod a few years ago in my standard 215bhp turbo 2000.










































Shame his engine went pop halfway down the strip.
