I was only refering to off boost driving, not the general performance.

Drive most 2L turbos off boost and they are rubbish, evos are no different. Though rb20dets are worse than most....

The RS has a close ratio 5 speed so I think it might be a little more nimble then the regular EVO

I give up!

go buy one. Your mind is made up.

but if you are concerned about fuel economy buy a niki and forget about performance.

You did better than I did, I gave up early on page 3 when he was still in the "z32/2j is the best option" phase.

I'm still baffled as to how someone can be "unimpressed" with the mid range torque of a 300kw sr, but is considering an evo as his next car.....
