ps- Nemes1s your Evo is pretty nasty, I've got a DSM for you to run when he comes down to visit, it would be a pretty close race...
Very true, look at it this way. You just took away every advantage of the Evo's design. Then you add more weight to it. Now your making 800whp, yes maybe more reliably than Joe shmo with an 800AWHP 4g63 but it means nothing when it can't put it to the ground without being at a track or using VHT.
I bet Joe Shmo can
Another reason why I find no sense in it, is why mod a car to be heavier, then take away its traction advantage. Why, to say you destroyed a beautiful machine to get a wow factor? I just can't make sense of it thats all.
Now if you want a wow factor, this makes sense to me
