Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad

As tragic as it must be to lose a tuned Peugeot 205 GTi... AND an Audi R4...
by far the most gut-wrenching loss is this one... the RalliArt-built, 2000 model year,
Mitsubishi Evolution 6 eXtreme RS450, of which only four or five were ever built.
No special-edition production road car built by Mitsubishi before or since could touch it.
For sheer BALLZ... THIS was the car Exclamation

Here are the car's complete specs: link--> speed junkie's Evolution 6 eXtreme (#19) RS450

Here's my post from 23-05-05... Link--> ALL models Evolution 6's

Here's the King of them all IMHO.
Nothing built by Mitsubishi before or since has that insane level of street performance.
Just right for this Mitsubishi MadMan Laughing
Even the mighty Evo VIII MR FQ400 can't come close to this level of "streetable" torque.
The main complaint of FQ400 is turbo lag; while RS450 can be faulted for under-gearing.
Of the two... I'd take an RS450 engine kit any day ... before the FQ400.

Evolution V-VI RS450
"The RS450 upgrade was only fitted to the Evo VI. Although one Evo V RS did have the
conversion done [white one featured in some magazines].
There were only 4 or 5 all based on eXtremes, and were based on the RS2, not an RS.
So, air con, long gearing but no AYC or ABS. AP brakes were fitted to most of them but it
wasn't mandatory, and some had 4-pot fronts with Brembo rears,
while the better option was 6-pot front/4-pot rear.
Why was it named the RS450? That was the torque figure they aimed for but never achieved.
... 450 bhp @ 6500 rpm / 380 lb.ft. @ 2800 rpm (est.* Question *) � with �wild� ECU settings.
One has been measured [chassis dyno] at 383lbs.ft., with 379bhp (WHP ?)
The FQ400 has 405bhp @ 6,400rpm and 355 lb-ft @ 5,500pm.

0-100 appears in just 8.8 seconds. A psychotic car!
Ralliart also reckon 0-60 will appear in under 4 seconds. (3.8 sec.)
The original price tag was �44,000! Rare as rocking horse s**t!
All the customer cars were mapped conservatively to make sure that none exploded - which they didn't!
More aggressive mapping would get much nearer to the "target" 450lbs/ft."

BTW folks... Just compare this level of performance with the latest JDM Supercar...
the 2008 Nissan GT-R 35 for about $76,000 US with 473 bhp, 434 lb ft of torque and it
weighs 1740kg (over 3800 lb.) BTW that's flywheel power output, eh!
That's seriously FAT and overweight! I know which one I want!

Everybody's $0.02� Wink

^ ^ ^ Well let's hope so. Mitsubishi could use another icon like the E6. Twisted Evil

If Mitsubishi put 400 + bhp in the E10, I'll QUICKLY put on a blindfold...
and forget about the boring "fat cat" looks.

They are already offering one with 360bhp. Top Gear tested both that one (w/ a 5 spd. manual
transmission) and the standard model that has 300bhp (w/ a 6 spd. paddle shifter transmission).

I am quite sure that they will improve upon the 360bhp output.
