Depends on yr style of drivingOriginally posted by rayshaw23:can anyone just tell me on the average, what is the FC of the EVO 8 MR? or even evo 7? and also the fuel tank size? and also whats the redline in both EVO 8 MR, EVO 7, as well as the new EVO 9? and whats the difference between the EVO 9 GSR from the GT and RS? thanks a million!
Like with all cars, you can't expect to mash yr revs to redline at every gear and still expect to have good FC.
At its best, my MR was doing abt 8+ km/l. Not the best I have seen but considering the power and tune compared to my old rides, it was acceptable.
In higher states of tune and the occasional revving, I am getting 7+
AFAIK, the redlines are the same for 8 and MR. Should be same for 7 as well. 9 is anybody's guess since it isn't out here yet.
Fuel tank is 45l for E7, and 55l for 8/MR. Expect 9 should have same 55l
Traditionally Evos come with 2 specs: RS and GSR.
GSR has all the nice frills for daily driving: aircon, Sports ABS, power windows, sports rims, Recaro seats. Comes with SAYC and 6 speed gearbox. Standard turbo for 9 GSR is titanium turbo.
RS is the full stripped down version meant for track/racing. You don't get aircon, no ABS, no power windows, no sports rims, no Recaro seats, no AYC, 5 speed gearbox (supposedly stronger). Also coems with the new magnesium titanium turbo as standard. This is optional for the GSR
Most teams go for these and then quickly replace them with far better components anyway, eg 6 pot brakes, racing LSD, even lighter forged rims, full bucket seats, clutch etc
GT is something new for E9. It is an intermediate spec. Think of it as an RS with some GSR amenities.. aircon, Brembos, ABS, Recaros etc.
Best part of it is that it is Group N homologated already. Also available in full range of colors like the GSR. RS is limited tow hite. -
So Evo only can go some 400 or less km.
By right evo shall have a fuel tank of 70 or 75l like normal 2.0 or 3.0 saloon car.
But to make it competitive and reduce weight it was just a mere 45 or 55l tank. -
wow, so sad about the evo, thought it might have better FC due to its 2 litre engine. whats the group N again? i didnt quite get it. thank you.
-
bad FC bcos of the turbo... pushing all the fuel in...
-
i was thinking, if someone is able to drive it below 3500 (assuming that the turbo kicks in during this rpm), will he be able to control effectively the FC? because i am really fascinated by the engine, 2 litre, yet it can produce such wonderful statistics that i cannot find in other cars? i dont know much about subaru WRX sti's engine, but i assume that it is equally as good. but i am slightly bias towards EVO. heeheehee!

In most cases, tuning a car for performance runs counter to getting it to be fuel efficient.Originally posted by rayshaw23:wow, so sad about the evo, thought it might have better FC due to its 2 litre engine. whats the group N again? i didnt quite get it. thank you.
It is a 2 litre engine, but running with 1.5 bar boost is almost like pushing it as a 3 litre car.
Group N is an FIA grouping of cars, which is close to showroom car standard with minimal amount of mods. With the Group N certification, you should be able to enter the GT in those classes of competition. -
Great info... can reveal hows the insurance like ? (age, ncd etc)Originally posted by DoggieHowser:In most cases, tuning a car for performance runs counter to getting it to be fuel efficient.

to dansplace and lancerevo, so whats the FC like on an average tank? assuming that u guys top 50 litres each time.Originally posted by dansplace:You are DA BOMB!

by the way, is there anyone out there still selling EVO 8 MR? and hows the price like? -
Naturally, FC is positive correlated to your right foot's pressure on the throttle. Usually its betw 7+ to 8+ (9 is a rarity). This is urban driving. you can try and ask around in the sg evo club if anyone is selling his/her MR... however, the 9 is going to be out REALLY soon. Good luck!Originally posted by rayshaw23:to dansplace and lancerevo, so whats the FC like on an average tank? assuming that u guys top 50 litres each time.
