1994 Mitsubishi EVO II owned by Mike Reichen 4G63 Motor - 1000 whp at 40 psi 2750 race weight with driver - full interior, glass windows, carpet, etc. The word on the street is that it's registered and insured in its home state of Illinois!
On April 10, 2010, these guys went out to the Hot Rod Magazine Street Car Standing Mile Challenge.
Apparently the shakedown pass was on 'low boost' and netted a trap speed of 202 mph. Then, the boost was turned up and by the end of the day they had a timeslip that read 237 mph. That makes this car the world's fastest EVO, world's fastest Mitsubishi, and world's fastest standing mile 4-cylinder(car), period!
