I think we would all enjoy it more if we just not worry so much about the term 'speed'

exactly why i chose it

The Evo feels faster than the Z only because the turbo kicks in at low RPM and put you back to the seat hard. But the Z gets more power when it revs up at higher rpm. Although the z feels more linear, it's no slower than the Evo if it's not faster.

Stock for stock the Z averages .4 seconds faster in the quarter mile against the evo.

OP's Fvcktard friend will lose steam at 110mph and the Z will chugg along with loads of power till it hits around 140-146mph, then you feel a sudden, drop in aggression in the Z. Even still, the Z can reach its top speed of 155mph with enough torque to still be satisfying.

Try that in a stock EVO, anything over 120mph will feel annoying.

The only advantage
evo really has is $3,000 will get them 80 extra hp. $3,000 will get us 20hp.
