    1. Yes
    2. Just pointing out the key differences between the VIII & IX. Those who might want an Evo may want it with a softer suspension.

    Subaru has an answer with the UK spec wrx sti spec-c. It was compared with the fq 300 and it beats it because of the sharp handling of the sti(even the writer was suprised). Remember that the US spec sti is always been beaten by the US spec evo because of its understeer. The comparison was featured in the december edition of sport compact car.

    EVO X speculations:

    In a shock announcement, Mitsubishi Motors Japan released the concept and specs of the new Evolution X. The surprise occurred due to the fact that the current model (IX) has only just started production in the past few weeks. The most perplexing notion is the release date of the new Evo.

    "We are so excited about this new car," announced Yushimo Katisho the market manager for Ralliart. "We couldn't keep it under wraps. It will be a huge leader in the market and should prove to be dominant in the WRC stage. This is one of the main reasons why the car is released now, so we can get the rally side working again."

    "The reality of it," Katisho continued. "Is that we have two teams running development work on the evolution range. The team on the IX really were just creating a face-lift of the VIII while our top engineers have been working tirelessly on the new X."

    So what is so good about the new Evo. For starters the platform is completely new, based somewhere between the CE lancer, Cedia design and the new CZ Tarmac. It promises to be smaller and lighter than the current IX allowing for gains to be made in rigidity and cornering.

    The engine powerhouse is the first step away from the conventional 4G63 long motor design that served for so long. Keeping the short motor design and platform Ralliart have gone into development with HKS and Greddy to create an amazing twin turbo system that will rock the turbo charged world's foundations.

    "With this new setup we are able to create peak torque at 2200rpm and hold that torque to 6900rpm and therefore extend that rally sweet spot. The most amazing development is the end of twin turbo gap and lag. This is like driving with a monster single turbo with low down mombo."

    The 4G63 is boosted now with full and complete Mivec and extra capacity going to 2.5 litres which promises to deliver copious amounts of power all the way to the new 8700rpm redline. This being the need created for the new turbo system.

    The drive line moves back to the proven 5 speed system for strength to cope with the new found power. The ACD gets more looks at with an extra mode - AutoX - for those tighter and twistier situations. The SAYC is further improved to carry 50% more torque from wheel to wheel and for the first time it is introduced on the front end of the car.

    The brakes also get their first upgrade in years. Brembo is left behind and ALCON come to the party. The front brakes now support 6 pot caliper strength while the rears support 4 pot stopping power. The rotors are not left behind with ALCON curve slots as standard.

    The car will be availble to the press in the next two weeks with sales expected to start in Japan around mid year.
