2000lude

I recently sold my prelude and bought a blue by you lancer evo. Just wondering how many evos roam the streets around here, and if there are any local evo meets.

There may be a DSM meet coming soon. I'm sure you would be welcome there.

How you like it? I am still debating wether to get Evo8 or STi. What was the base of your decision? I am leaning more towards the STi, but I definetly like the looks of EVO8 10x better.

STi for sure bro...more potential

Sti has half a liter on the evo, it will probably come out far ahead in power production. There are some evos putting out very big numbers, but the Stis will probably outstrip them. I'd personally take an Evo over the Sti any day of the week, just from reading the articles and seeing them both in person, researching them on the web, and perhaps because of a bit of current-car bias. Plus, the evo comes stock with a front mount while you're basically stuck with that goofy top-mount bs with the sti unless you want the longest intercooler piping "evar".
