hello all last night my mate Steve turned up in a red evo 7 560bhp......... its absolutely mad!! in fact it frightened me ! and aim not kidding , its in this issue of redline here,s the link to it on mlr http://www.lancerregister.com/showthread.php?t=284059
when the garret kicks in it pins you to the seat and just does not stop making power, the engine is a 2.3 stroker built by mark shead of madevelopments , the thing i couldn't get over was the noise of the fuel pump just mental, when i put my foot down with 560 bhp the 4wd system squirmed but you have to give it to the 4g64 mitzy engine wow what a car


andy

 

i bet it was the bollocks mate!!

 

pics and video

 

so this isnt a for sale add....?
looks good value for 17K though.

 

id rather a 560 bhp 3dr

 

sold to my mate, he will use it as a weekend car

 

Cool car

 

did he pay the asking price? it looks like a lot of car for the money and id have one over a cosworth anyday as you know the jap car will be more reliable and you can drive them home after thrashing them.

 

Si B's has a touch more power, and having been lucky enough to been out around the ring, defo agree they are awesome

 

he did a part ex with his mint evo 6 running 370bhp , ive drove a 500bhp e6 b4 but this is a different beast all together and im not kidding when i said the power frightens me !! its also got anti lag that ya can switch off and on when we put it on flames were coming out.. and what amazed me was just how drivable it was off boost and not alot of lag but the twin clutch is tricky til ya used to it, it also has a RS gearbox so that makes it even quicker

andy

 

very nice that , my stepdad has a evo 9 with 400 bhp and thats fkin quick so can imagine how fast this beast is !

 

there was one of these at rockingham on a trackday, 2.3 500+ hp and it was slow as shit, on track, but for the road bet its a beast !
just to compare, a 300hp fiesta rally car was taking the mick lol,


the car you showed looks stunning though, deffo something id like to own one day

 

Surprising as this might sound theres sometimes a driver behind the wheel, who may not be going as fast as he can either through choice or ability, I can think of better ways to describe a 500bhp Evo other than "slow as shit".

 

+1

 

did it enter your mind that the rally car might actually have a decent driver and the evo might not lol

im sure AG's focus would be slow as shit with me driving

 

Thats a mates evo (he just sold it to your mate with the P/X) He was a user on here as he has had lots of RSfords

 

the fiesta was my old mans, and his brother in law driving who hasnt driven anything quick for 13 years when he had a 500hp 3door..

the evo driver wasnt bad, he had a 400hp evo 10 there too, both went pretty well, just not as well as i honestly thought !

just my opinion on what i saw

 

Lovely car that

 

Which bit was your opinion on what you saw, the bit where it was going well, or where it was slow as shit?

 

ok, compared to what i think was half fast it was slow, but as im trying not to get into an argument they went ok

 

so it went well ,its half fast and its slow as shit? im confused.

 

Are we not allowed to dis evos or something ?? Above car looks nice but does fuck all for me.

 

i wouldnt say any car with well over 500bhp could be described as slow. neither evo or cosworth.

 

So you still think it was slow as shit, but are now lieing to say it went well?

Strange lad, fuck public opinion just say what you honestly believe IMHO!

 

it was not as quick as expected, there we go, should have typed that in the first place lol, im just trying to keep the peace

 

If its had one of MAD's conversions it will be a very very fast car nice one

Russ

 

Say what you want jimbo no need to lick arses is there !!!!

 

no licking arses goin on bud, just didnt want to end up writing an essay arguing, which ive ended up doing anyway

 

Didn't mean you pal.

 

should read things more clearly shouldnt i lol

 

Possibly,lol.

 

looks good but not my cuppa

 

theres a 593 bhp evo forsale on ebay now

 

and its a evo 7

 

Russ
Jimbo was told from birth that any MAD car is shit slow .

 

this car at rockingham wasnt an mad car, i think you'll find i complimented on how cool the "mad" car was.

 

its a nice car ,but to tell you the truth it wouldnt bother me to leave it out in the rain

cheers james

 

Very nice looking car

 

This car was awesome Ive never been in a car so quick before it was frigging brilliant

Cheers for picking me up Andy and getting your mate to take me out for a go in that motor

That antilag made my ears pop

 

i bet you had something brown in your pants.
