Most Japanese don't use water/meth kits on their street cars & i don't know of any European guys either. there probably is a few BUT i haven't met any yet.
it will also be more of a tuning challenge than a 1/4 mile challenge as we already know the gas sucks (CA & AZ use MTBE in their gas 6 months out of the year).

Read it here in the Transmission section: http://www.mitsubishicars.com/MMSA/j...p?t=mechanical
And here's the excerpt:
"Full-Time All-Wheel Drive with Active Center Differential, Front Helical Torque-Sensing Limited Slip Differential and a Rear Mechanical 1.5 Limited-Slip Differential."
They have the IXs posted right now, so I will have to find the one for 05s, since I'm sure you'll ask.

sure i can go out & buy a Warrtalon package & make the '05 haul but why be the same? you've already done it. there are endless possibilites all over the world to make evos fast. people tailor their cars to their personality. u chose the cheap route, i will not. the results might be the same in the end, maybe not. i guess you'll have to wait & see...

Think about it.
Think about it.
That 12.00 was done on a race gas mixture which makes it silly to compare to going 12.00 on pump gas, let alone 91.
IIRC, he went 12.26 on 93 octane, which still isn't the same as doing so on 91
