The Evolution MR is capable of 13 flat. Stock for stock it will manhandle a 2004 GT. That is indeed a good kill.

Yeah thats a worthy kill - I wouldn't say evos are a 13 flat... they're a bit slower then STi Imprezzas and I think they're at 13 or so... I would say a EVO MR/VIII would put down a low 13... The MR's aren't to much differant then the reg Evo series...

Yeah there the same minus the bigger hot side on the turbo and different clips on the turbine blades, and the six speed tranny, and the cosmetic differences, and the bilstein Suspension, selectable active center differential, Aluminum roof and all that. But your right my man, they just slap a MR badge on there and mark the price up.

Those cars are really fast because of the awd launches.
