you missed out on a set of brand new 1050's I just sold them for a lot less than retail - would have worked well for you.

Only thing I guess I will contribute to this Awsome debate is. We live in Pittsburgh where we have 2 very viable options as far as fuel go's straight out the pump.

93 octane , proven to be able to support more boost than most are willing to try to run it to.

E85 which well do I really need to hype this fuel up anymore than it is.

I guess its like this for those who dont believe will sort them selves out in 2 different ways.

1 breaking their shlt when that meth systeem says F U

Or just gettin beat down by another comparable setup car but running a better pump fuel option

Well said.....i just run 87 octane, much safer.

The only advice i'll give ,is don't trust everything you read on the internet!

And how can anyone even compare E85 to 93 octane? E85 is like 105 octane, of course it works better! Now compare 105 race gas vs. E85 and then you can talk about differences. Now meth, I don't think i'ts something i'd go with, but then again i'm staying away from E85 for the moment also. There are just some benifits of race gas.

Trying sell to feed my crack-like suspension habit and score some Group-N's so that I can never be a better driver than my car

I believe everything I read on the internet. Especially if I see it on Evom. If you'll excuse me I have to block tune my car. A couple magic 8's here and some crazy 9's there and we should be good to go for race warz. I almost have a lead on the nitrous bottles and my man is going to hook me up with a meth kid. The way I see it the more stuff I add, the more can go wrong, and the faster I will theoretically be. However if I reinforce the floorboards on my car theoretically I'll have covered my *** for anything that can go wrong, including but not limited to "danger to manifold" style events.

I've actually started to love it. It has some good room in the back, has a cool hatch/tailgate that works great. And, it really drives nice. I told Justin the other day i really like driving that over the BMW anymore. Its actually even more of a plush ride. Plus it has an EVO X whole dash (altho i'm not impressed) and paddle shifters which i have only touched once. We did get the V6 model! Now i've been thinking, that engine with a turbo put into the EVO.

Thanks Jeremy awesome review. We have one rugrat now, planning on two. So looking for some extra space and the 4wd V6 XLS is a bargain. Plus I would love to stay within mitsubishi.

Actually GST Motorsports in CA has tuned a few cars from 110 race gas to E85 and made more power......

What you need is one of those hydraulic handbrakes where forward locks the right wheels and back locks the left wheels.
