With 930 HP, RC Developments' EVO is the most powerful in the world?
Question: What do you get if you take a Mitsubishi Evo VI and spend a year and a half tuning it with a total cost of around $186,000? Answer: RC Developments' 930hp Evo, a car that was built to kick ass. The UK tuning business is ultra competitive and takes no prisoners. Last year, Norris Designs unveiled a Mitsubishi Evo that produced more than 700 hp, and that threw down the gauntlet. RC Developments' response to that challenge was to move up to the next level by releasing an Evo VI into the unsuspecting community with a proven 930 ponies (and 673 lb-ft of torque). To put that power figure into some kind of perspective, a Ferrari Enzo has only 660 hp, and the Mercedes McLaren SLR is positively puny with a pathetic 617 hp.
"It had to be road legal and based on a car that you could drive to work and then take for a track day on the weekend, and that's what we have done," explains the company's sales manager Jenny McKeown. The project started 15 months ago when the RCD team took their 400hp Evo off the road and prepared for battle.

He's really telling the truth. I remember reading about the car in a magazine a few weeks ago. I remember the article because they were interviewing one of the guys that built it and he was like 'The first time I drove it, the acceleration actually made me sick to my stomach.' Thats awesome.

Badassest EVO ever engine wise? Yes.
Can the same be said about the tailights? FUCK NO.
Wing I can live with. When you have that much money, you go "eh", but even if I could afford McLaren F1s for everyone I knew, I'd NEVER get gaytezzas on ANYTHING.
