I like the dark side.....
Hey guys
I have just had a quick go in my mates Evo X -FQ360.
I must say I was impressed. The power drops in way quicker than my Scooby.
Damn those Evo's.
Shame it's a pooh coloured car. Should have been in white.

Stock exhaust is gay - noise wise.
Gibbo, your Milltek exhaust makes it sound like a REAL car!

Only the 2.0 engines, 2.5 wouldn't last long

Agreed Moley. c400bhp for the pistons on the 2.5s. ie basically a remap with sportscat on a VF43 would give you 350/390. Not really worth changing the turbo unless you're doing serious stuff. That's a lot of low down torque though!
Evos are great of course. Have had a shot in one - not a 360 though!

Not round a track they aint
,drove my mates FQ400 evo 8,and apart from being laggy at low revs ,when you get above 3500 rpm it is extremely rapid,goes off the speedo with ease, and when cornering at brands hatch on a track day ,the car spent most of it time in 3 wheel drive.love the clip below:
