yea but i think just the general numbers of high hp and fast 1/4mile evos overshadow those in subaru barn, thus why he my have come to that conclusion. stil makes power, just not as much or as easy..

We can stop any time, I've tried apologizing to you several times and tried resolving this, and you can ask any of the mods for confirmation of this... Whenever I thought we were making progress you'd take a cheap shot at me for whatever reason... Finally I realized (well after a year of trying to resolve it) that you wanted no part in solving it so I decided just to have fun with it.

blah blah blah blah blah blah did you talk to the wife yet?? i KNOW that at LEAST 75% of subaru (enthusiasts) secretly desire an EVO, and that 45% of EVO (enthusiasts) secretly desire an STI or RS swap... might as well fulfill your dream and not regret it...

Yeah, I'm working on her... I'd really like to drive an EVO X before I go further, but if it's anything like the previous gen, then Im sold. I hated the last gen interior minus the hot seats, but I know the X improves on that, w00t.

dope dope dopamine... the only thing i remember from when i was looking at evos was that the seat sometimes has some bad stitching, so check to make sure the seats appear to be sewn nicely together. good luck ! the three things that deterred me were... (1) capital mitsubishi thought i was an idiot and would NOT looking at the paperwork before i signed... (2) the rpm in 5th gear at 75-80mph and (3) the overall cost. good luck ! have no regrets brah ! get your dream car, i was finally able to get mine and every time i wake up in the morning i smile cause i get to drive the car i drive lol

I have a deep love for EVO's, and the only reason I don't have one right now is because my wife says she'll divorce me if I do the switch, lol... If we had EVO's available here in 99 and 2000, I'd have one instead of my 2.5RS.
Here's my question: To you converts, do you regret leaving the subie world to move on to the EVO world? Any issues? Things that we should know?

I almost fell out of my chair when I read this. My wife and I have exactly the same conversation all the time.
I am a total evo fan boy. For the cost of cams, injectors, turbo, fuel pump and a tune on e-85 you can make reliable retarded power.
My wife will not let me do it as she feels they are unsafe. They are rated really low in consumer crash test ratings. I told her I would put a cage in it. Still no love.
SO I am left with having to dump tons of money into my WRX to make it fun.

ugh i just threw up in my mouth reading over all this crap! subaru overall is just a better engineered car. i may be bias but i do know one thing, its like trying to pick a kawasaki over a yamaha hahaha. hey to each his own. choo guys loco! take that mitsubishi and drive it off a cliff. the only problems i have with subaru is body roll and rear strut caps. minor mods. easy money. can we vote to kick hope ur mitsu satifies you 5-10 -15 years from now. i belive STI's will be better collector items as time passes. simply because they're AWESOME. yeah i drank some haterade this morning
