I own a 9 year old Evo X running 408bhp (see my KZread dyno run) and it has covered over 110,000 miles on UK roads and it is still going strong and has had no major issues. Ford on the other hand has only just produced a car that puts out 350bhp (evo's have been putting out more than this for years,last UK model put out 440bhp) and it turns out that the engines will let go at a few thousand miles due to the head gasket. In my eyes Ford are still playing catch up to what Mitsubishi was doing years ago ! Such a shame the Evo is no more.

Ford have now issued a recall for the defective headgaskets on the RS.

are you sure about that? The reason UK had the FQ series in the first place is because the market for Evo's in UK were insanely demanded back then,especially in the tommi makinen days. Therefore the tuning scene would be too? The 4b11 is just more complicated to tune than 4g63,it's well known,even in in North America people don't really know how to tune those.Despite what people say 4b11 is better I believe,AMS performance and such tuners make their own 4b11 with only slightly bigger bore. It wasn't well supported at all in North America at first if you remember?People whining,wanting their 4g63 back.Not being a real evo for not having 4g63 and bla bla bla.

samymasta - some fair points although my impression is that the x isn't that popular a tuning platform over here. I think some of it has to do with the ecutek system. I have a tuned x (mhi 18k/boltons) but 8/9's seem far more popular, particularly in tuning scene. Quite often get parts from states - tuning scene seems pretty healthy over there.

@samymasta

6 жыл бұрын

Yeah well I think it has to do with big companies like AMS,ETS,STM,which made extremely powerful and reliable parts/tunes. You got some 2008 evo x on E85 running 1000hp+ The aftermarket car culture is,by far way ahead in the US I'll give you that,more than anywhere else on earth. It's the tuners around here you have to be very careful.In north America we're used to 8 cylinders that push 700 hp+ like a fart. It's a completely other thing to tune a 2.0l turbocharged engine to 700hp lol,especially considering how suprisingly lean the Evo x runs. Here where I live in Quebec,Canada,there are only TWO well known tuners who are recognised as being knowledgeful of the 4b11,for the whole province. I don't know if you know,but Quebec,is fucking huge lol. The 2 biggest evo forums in Canada actually recommends to go have your Evo tuned in the US,not Canada. That gives you an idea lmfao. Not only that but pretty much all world records are held and broken by American tuners times and times again.

You have to push the sti to your and the cars limit to have "fun" as he makes it out. Subaru puts quality and safety above anything else no matter what. If you push the STI, it will most definitely be a more enjoyable experience since it is meant for daily driving, especially here in the U.S.

Great review! I share the same opinion on the Evo. I think its a brilliant car and in my opinion the most exciting of the three. Mercedes and Ford are feeling so proud of making 4 cylinder engines with 350hp but they apparently forgot that Mitsubishi made 400hp 5 years ago. Would I pick the Evo over the Focus RS? Most likely I would. I love the Ford, being a newer car with more features and a more comfortable ride (my mom would hate the Evo) its definitely got appeal. However, the Evo is just bae, isn't it?

Great Video and a pretty good comparison. Yes the FQ400 is a limited edition however with minimal mods you can bring a stock 290hp Evo x up to some pretty respectable numbers AND they will keep doing those numbers for years without fault if you look after them. I’ve had my Evo X for 9 years now and it’s done 135,000kms, currently pushing the equivalent of 500 engine horsepower and it’s still running an unopened motor with stock internals and still on the ORIGINAL factory clutch! That’s what makes the Evo’s great. My VIDEOS show the sort of abuse the car sees regularly, along with lots of daily driving. Focus RS would be the pick of the modern 4wd turbos.

Mac Dawg you’re very lucky. Was a fun car to drive. We did some drifting in it too. Coming out soon!

Great vid and Shout out to my home town Minehead where you were filming at a few bits of your vid!! Some great roads around that neck of the woods!!

Love the hatchback style of the RS. I have love for all those cars, except for the Honda, hard pass. But the fq400 limited edition at a $20k more than the rs or sti, it better make you feel like a kid in the candy store compared to the others.

So the Subaru is the worst because it’s not AS exciting and AS powerful compared to the others? When you push it to the limit the car is really agile and sporty. You just haven’t driven it the way its supposed to be.

How is it fair to compare a limited prod car like the FQ400 vs other standard trim models? If you mod other cars to be close to the price of FQ400 you may have different results.

So can someone real quick just explain to me whats the difference between the normal Evo x and the Evo x FQ400?

Good video and it is interesting that so many people choose the Focus. I was so geared up to get one and really wanted one until I drove it and found it so boring and un-engaging - not too mention the exhaust which I thought sounded awful! I said no to Ford and went straight to Subaru and picked up a WRX STi Final Edition, never looked back.

fq 400 vs type ra?

I've got an FQ 400, it's the most nutso car I've ever had, I'd marry it if it was legal.

Evo my favourite car but sad is i think no more evo 11 more...

Great 👍🏽 video, would’ve loved to see you push that Evo. 1 in 35 have fun with it.

So I'm guessing Ford tuned the suspension to be less stiff? That's the biggest complaint I hear from most reviewers, and they definitely stray away from it as a daily driver because of that. So, did they improve the suspension or do you just not mind the rough ride?

Clearly you havent done your research..... The evo has a very clever braking and stability control system comparable to most modern cars today :p

being an STI owner and having owned an EvoX in the past, I can testify that both cars feel completely different. However... I completely disagree with the STI comment about it not feeling exciting when driving on back roads. Switch to sport# and turn traction control off and you got plenty of power and grip to have tons of fun. that being said... That FQ400 is a beast

What does he mean by "Mark 10" on the evo?

@mrtylerseifert

6 жыл бұрын

It's the tenth version of the Evo. Hence the roman numeral X. Brits like to say Mark to refer to version so Evo Mark 10 just means Evo X.

I like the reality of your video. We all saw the Honda and thankfully you reserved comment since you didn't really drive it. Looks like the Golf R was missing for a perfect comparison. In Canada we receive an RS with summer-only tires AND a set of winter tires and rims, perhaps you'd like to try out the summer set to analyze one more time.

You lucky sod! I think Subaru have lost their way a little since the 1990s and early 2000s. Great vid :)
