Hey my wife is taking a debate class and some *** keeps on braging about his EVO and why its so much better then the STi. So she the rex driver that she is called him out so now thay have to debate about it on next thursday. So she needs help with stats and any other fire power she could go in with. Maybe even some videos of STi going up against a evo track or 1/4 mile
Thanks in advance Miguel

 

you're wife is gonna loose, EVO > STI

 

+1

sorry

 

evos are made by mitsubi****

/thread

 

track - evo
off road - sti

sti > evo

 

all the test i have read the evo wins in a all out race
but as far as quality and workmanship the STI is a better choice
interior quality fit and trim are all better on the STI
hope that helps a little i know its not much but i bought a subaru over a mitsubishi...
another thing the evo has is a better warranty.
road and track and many many others have done the same testing to see which car is better, tell her to hit up the library and research those articles for some good info.

Unfortunately, Zebra is right. I think every tuner mag has came to the same conclusion... but it's usually by some tiny, tiny fraction. And they all generally agree that only the top % of drivers will notice the differences.

 

O RLY?

 

I think you can argue that the STI is better, but for certain things. I'd have to admit that based on all my reading, that the EVO is probably more competent at the track. But since 95% of my mileage is on the street, the STI, with the lower boost/bigger engine and more forgiving suspension is probably the better car. I think the fact that we can run lower boost due to the 2.5L motor bodes well for longevity. Also, I like the rush of torque that the bigger motor provides.

That being said, I probably would have chosen an EVO except that Mitsubishi is somewhat unstable at the moment, and I didn't want to deal with any potential warranty problems... a la clutch problems.

 

Just go to the Evo forums and have her print out the threads where people are *****ing and moaning about toasted clutches and other broken parts that Mitsubishi won't warranty.

 

The build of the STi is top notch, the Evo is not so top notch, so I've heard at least. My friend is having problems with his Evo and he's only had it for 6 months, no abuse either. I've had my STi for 2 years now, no abuse either, and no problems. Build issues? I think so. I would look into that and attack from there. Also look at the numerous problems that Mitsubishi's have had in general. When all else fails, use this provided picture.

 

thats a good picture that shows how much uglier the subaru is than the evo

 

what were they thinking, lol. I think I saw that pic in one of the car mags... motor trend/r&t/c&d...

 

edit: now as its own thread...
