Stock 5.0 vs Evo VIII MR modded?
****UPDATE: WE RACED... SEE WRITE UP IN THE STREET/STRIP SECTION*****
I just got my 5.0 on 4/30/12.
6 speed GT premium with standard gears (not 3.73s)
completely stock
My buddy just bought a 2005 Evo VIII MR (6 speed manual)
Mods: Cam, Tune, Full exhaust, intake, injectors, larger inter-cooler piping, bov, and probably a few other things) Dyno (from previous owner): 339HP 332 TQ (to the wheels)
Assuming equal drivers,,,, Who'd win? (admittedly he is a better driver than I am, but for comparison purposes who "should" be faster)
1/4 mile?
Roll 20-100?
Roll 60-130?
Dig -80?
I'll race him and find out, but I'm just curious what others thought? I'm guessing it will be close, but he's probably faster.

I know exactly what you mean, lol! Modding is a slippery slope for sure.
Those EVOs just respond really well to mods. I've seen them do 118+ and high 11s on the stock turbo. Would love to have one, but they're pretty pricey for the age/mileage for my taste.

Those things are nasty modded.
Good luck though.

Hate to tell you bro, but you have no chance lol, especially from a dig. Theres a kid around me with the same-ish setup (stock turbo) but running 75% meth and he's making around 400 awhp. He smokes modded termis, beat a Porsche gt3 rs, a couple bikes, and a ton of other cars....just so you have an idea.

I'm not sure if he's making more power now but this was a couple months ago.
Nasty. Right?
I've been in the car with another passenger and he still spun all 4 through 1st and 2nd. Lol

Either way AWD is nuts, so he will need some mods to keep up.
