I drive a 02 S2000 with HKS exhaust and a ZEX 55 hp kit and my S2000 got smoked by my girlfriends stock 03 Evolution. I put the numbers side by side as a comparison. So for all you out there that think the Evolution is a econobox look below. Oh ya I forgot to mention after driving the Evo, the S2000 feels like it handles and brakes like a SUV. Not Flamming just stating the truth.

S2000 w/55 shot vs. Stock Mitsu Evo

R/T .902 .650
60' 2.26 1.83
330 5.81 5.21
1/8 8.73 8.38
MPH 83.47 85.37
1000 11.26 11.02
1/4 13.39 13.02
MPH 107.8 106.7

Both runs above where on same track with me driving, If the Evo had exhaust and Nitrous I can bet on atleast mid 12's.

how about some timeslip pics.

Your 60' time in the S2000 sucked! and you Evo time seems a bit too fast for all stock! I don't think any Evo's have run that fast 100% stock.

AbusiveWombat

yeah that EVO time is the best I've seen (if there's a timeslip) for a stock EVO. Just noticed you live in Boston...that might help a bit.

hokiemax

so you're saying stock EVOs get around 105mph trap??? wow.

brushman

Your girlfriend sure knows how to drive.

You seem to know how to push a button.

I'm with Scot on this one... your 60' times do suck and there's no way the EVO is stock trapping at almost 108mph.

TypeR1159

It wasn't almost traping 108mph (106.7 to be exact), and I do not have a scanner so posting the slip would be way more trouble than its worth. I honestly could careless who beleives the time I was merely stating a fact. Check evolutionm.net there are many low 13 sec stock Evo's out there. And for all that said a 2.2 60' sucked for the S2000 see how well you can do off the line with a 55 shot that ingages under full throtle. I think I am a pretty good driver considering that I hit a 13.9@99 bone stock, haven't noticed too many of you out there doing all that much better (maybe a very few running 13.8).

Wow- that mph for the EVO is insane- it is enough for mid 12's with out a doubt. How cold was it our when you made that run?? Also, how did you launch it and what rpm approx. did you shift at?

You must be one hell of a good driver. I'd call BS but ...
1.) never seen you drive
2.) dont know track conditions.
3.) your gf coulda gotten a factory freak ( granted 3 mph above what the car should run is one hell of a freak)
4.) I've seen videos of some guy in a stock 98 Cobra going 106mph- I guess some people can flat out drive.

That is one fast motha

How interesting that you say the S2000 handles and brakes like a SUV after driving the Evo, but the Evo has two more doors and seats and probably qualifies as closer to a SUV than the S2000 does. Oooh maybe you should have your S2000 brakes checked! j/k

I don't know the validity in your numbers, but it sounds like where you live may be a deciding factor (thanks for pointing that out, AW).

By the way, guys, his girlfriend wasn't driving. TypeR1159 said that he drove both cars himself on the same track.
