^^ his setup is a Jackson Racing Super Charger not turbo. You really love turbo don't you? you keep saying turbo turbo. In the quote you quoted me, I believe I put that he had the JRSC setup. and you say you're not bored so you don't go reading other people's projects... yet you have more posts in this forum than I do...?

maybe if it has a built motor. The hasport em2 had a swap and turbo it was 300 whp. The evo has the traction the em2 won't have with that much whp. The evo isn't that much heavier than the em2 so it would be a pretty close run.

^^ yea i think it'd be a close race.. evo's aren't exactly known for having great top end speeds... well at least stock. from a 40mph roll my friend's cl-s 6spd manual took an evo VII or VIII i forget which it was. it was when i was a senior in high school 2 years ago. pretty dumb but he raced the guy while we were on local streets, and took it to 100+ 2 or 3 times. raced again from a dig, and of course the evo raped -_-.

If you want a tuner car.

4 cylinder--EVO, its has a very proven history with a great base
6 cylinder--Supra or 300zx both proven cars

Guess that guy couldn't drive. I don't know, top speed stock is 156mph. WIth reflash, piggy-back, or stand alone topspeed limiter taken out. Ive heard of some worked evos getting to 179+. The scary thing with the evo doing a topspeed run is that @ those speeds the car feels like it is so stable and just hugging the roads.
