Your friend was correct.
The difference is a full 30kw extra between the non-mivec and actual mivec, and it's fully sik bro like a turbo that comes on at high RPMs.
Mivec = better.

What are you smoking crack???? 30kws what a load of sh*t. try 10kw IF THAT. Just cause they say it in a pretty little brochure dont make it true. There are lots of test been done between mivecs and non, manual and tips etc etc and never have i seen a 30kw difference. That means a stock gpx would be putting out around 120kw+............ I dont think so bro.

i think he's quoting at the flywheel, not the atw

who uses at the flywheel these days ... i think he might have been mistaking hp for kw

that still doesnt make any difference............ unless he is comparing a gpx at the fly to a gr auto atw.

Mitsubishi FTO GPX - 147 kW @ 7,500 rpm
Mitsubishi FTO GR - 125 kW @ 7,000 rpm

Sources; Wikipedia, Fto.org, Myfto, Cars-Directory, Prestige Motorsport

last time i checked, if 5 completely different sources claim the exact same thing, it's generally true.

Engine output is used a LOT more often than wheel power.
sure, mivec might only make a 10kw difference at the wheels, but according to sources, it makes about a 22kw difference at the engine - this is with mitsubishi under-stating the engine like many other models.

bahahahahahaha

So now your changing your story before you saying it was a 30kw difference now its 22 tomorrow its 15, then by saturday your right on the money, Mate i have driven a truck load of fto's mivec and non, auto and manual. and im telling you now there is now where near 30 kw difference between mivec and non. I dont care what your little websites tell you, join the real world and go out and experience the difference.

30kw gain is something you expect from a turbo install not from mivec. if i could get 30kw gain id just go and buy a mivec, hell of a lot cheaper than turbo'ing. Oh thats right i just did buy a mivec and its all hype.

Seriously who gives a f**k what a engine's output is, if it cant get it to the wheels then whats the point

Engine output.

besides, an extra 10kw at the wheels at 500RPM higher is more than enough to warrant extra money.

Yeah..and 500 more than the non-mivec 7000RPM is..what exactly?

oh im not laughing at whether tippin is correct or not im laughing at the fact that he's givin you sh*t lol.

Chill out man its all good fun, you made a comment that was totally BS now cop it on the chin, like a good little sailor should

Never fails to amaze me how agressively you defend the GR

arhhhh see thats where wrong.... i just love to give ppl sh*t. Usually doesnt even matter if im right or not .

Hey and i just realised im just gr owner anymore i drive my mivec everyday

Ah Simon, always with an axe to grind

Unfortunately, the noob is right; there is a decent (20+) kw difference in power at the fly.

I've driven both GR and GPX (in manual) and IMO there is a big difference in power, but you're welcome to disagree

Grabs coke and popcorn. Nicholas vs i8AFRE. This show should be worth watching

hahahaha, amusing.. i think i took your side after "the_msta_chizz" thought that just cause he finds 5 sources it must be true, failing to realise the interwebs lies and they all probably originated from the same source which for all we know could have been a fat little 12 year old whose been playing too much NFS

that and the fact his "5" sources disproved his 30kw argument anyway.. i was just saying soft to see if i'd get a reaction
