Ah, would have been easier if you said that in your initial post... since the topic was about 90's cars to begin with. That way the rest of us don't have to try to guess what your thinking.

*shrugs* SlowNRusty brought up the Evo, which was never available in the US before the Evo 8. I assumed it was clear? Guess not.

The Evo8 makes some great power, but the clutch and transmission are defenetley the weak points. The EvoMR transmission is much better and i might be mistaken but the new Evo9 has a better transmission also.

My friend has a Eagle Talon and runs something like 29psi. Its got alot of work done to it. But to be honest in the two years i have known the kid i have seen that car on the road enough times to count on ONE HAND. It NEVER runs right. But the few times i have seen it running right...it was pretty damn fast. Coincedentally that one of the nights he had it out he kept pace with a C5 Z06. Was pretty much dead even the entire run up to 120mph.
