Either way, the 2011 is much faster than the 2008 because of the much better factory tune. Good news for all the new owners
Yay! Now if I can just get the dealer to figure out why my 2011 GSR keeps throwing P0017 codes, I'll really be happy...

Do you guys think the 2011 tune is better than the 2008 with Cobb stage 1?

No way. A tuned 2008 will be faster than a base 2011.

The only draw back of the 08 evoX had is a straight line performance. But still on track was just as fast as the IX. So according to that , should be a faster car.

Maybe a not-so-intelligent-question, but is there a way to copy the 2011 code and flash it over to the non-2011 Xs (e.g., ECU flash)?

Instead, why not tune the '10? Same thing really.

From my understanding, there are subtle tweaks to the MIVEC and AFR's for 2011.
