Sign this guy up!
and you are forgetting that the evo has 286 hpBlackBaer5.0 said:Some things people are forgeting about the Evo...
1..its a 4 wheel drive car which means it will eat up the 60 foot times and have very low ET's
2.. stock it ran high 12s low 13 sec 1/4 mile w/ approx 375hp
3 it is based directly from a very competitive rally car
5. As much as it pains me to say this..the Fox mustang stock was slooow. 14 sec 1/4 mile.. and its using old technology. only approx 250hp
I have driven a stock Evo with only the boost turned up and drag radials on all 4 wheels and ran a 12.8 and Im not too good at racing with a real light tree....so it wouldnt be a strech to run 10's with a couple grand in parts..
hell,... my friends 84 volvo 242 2.2L with a huge ass turbo runs low 13s ..and its a Volvo with Mechanical fuel injection.. And he only put 3 grand in the car including the 800 for the car...lol
and BTW volvo's rule but I still LUV my stang..

What new car doesn'tShakerhood said:6. It Cost more than twice what a Fox Car did, so you are comparing Apples to Oranges.
Woodrow said:You guys are a bunch of idiots, get your head out of you ass and go do some research. An ams gt35rl kit for and evo is $4,549.95, the car can make 575-650 WHP if you want to push the stock bottom end. And most cars run mid tens with that kit and supporting exhaust total cost of an evo 8 right now around 23-26k, you do the math. That kit is the same price as a hellion for a fox, give or take. Do you look at cobras that make 550 -600 and say thats not impressive they added a kb plus all the other suporting **** and make that power for 40k, no you dont. I am not saying worship imports, but **** get your head out of your ass./ end rant.
90mustangGT said:In the argument on "how much it cost to build a fast car" that is a number with a lot of varables. Drop 5K for your EVO, well, your going to put that kind of power down, of course nothing will break.... right? Guess what? Things are going to break. I have noticed that "misc." expences account for as much if not more than the actually cost of the build.
With those cars, they are not as easy to work on, (it will take more time) and parts will cost you more. 4 pistons in one of those will cost more than 8 for ours. Yes, there are lots of EVO's out there, but not enough for mass production of aftermarket parts. If you want to go fast, cheap, the best way is to get a light car, and put a SBC BBC, next choice would be a SBF, but from there the cost starts to skyrocket.
