they use the 2.0 over the pond cause thats the biggest an engine is allowed in rally. Unlike the 2.5 sold here in the states.

The newest FQ300 MR will not make it to the states for starters, and it is making around 310HP. That is why they state that the STi is 8 hp down. I caught up with this info in a recent car magazine.

Ouch, that understeer was ghastly.

I'm not sure the guy even knew what cars they were!

"Mitsubishi......Lancer....EVO......FQ............ .........................................320"

Nice vid, cheers.
