The only strength the Evo has, is on it's launch.



My FD is quite some bit faster than my friend's Evo on 20 psi.



She gets me off the launch and then I start to reel her back in hard. From a roll, it's far less of a race than before.

Their power range is also somewhat limited due to their high boost (19lbs. stock) And that 271 HP is chopped down quite a bit from the 4WD. Can't remember the exact figure, but its pretty surprising.
