Looking for maximum gear speeds for Mitsubishi Evolutions.. Both MR and IX.
Anyone know where I can find this data? I have been searching for a while.

koho2731 · 07-06-2006, 09:41 PM

if you know the gear ratio you can use a gear speed calulator to figure ont the top speed for each gear

wrx_snobordr · 07-07-2006, 11:55 AM

its in the owners manual.

Pocket_Rocket · 07-07-2006, 02:05 PM

Ya know.. like a knucklehead I did not even check that. I will have to take a look. Looking for max 4th gear speed in a 6 speed. Was having discussion / debate with someone.

Hope its published in teh book. That would be awesome

wrx_snobordr · 07-07-2006, 02:28 PM

Yeah, im 99% certain they have a break down of max gear speed for every version aswell as gear ratios. I remember reading it when i was waiting for everything to get finalized with the purchase.

peteyturbo · 07-07-2006, 03:15 PM

4th gear max speed for non MR IX is around 112-113 I believe, hitting the rev limiter.Max speed for MR is 111-112 in 4th..

Pocket_Rocket · 07-07-2006, 04:19 PM

I found a thread where these were ran through the calculator and they came up with 104-105 mph for the 6 speed. I will check my book when I get home.
All I can find online is ratios

markley02 · 07-07-2006, 05:17 PM

Craig, if you want you can take my MR out for a test drive and find out

peteyturbo · 07-07-2006, 06:02 PM

I am crossing the line in 4th gear redline in my MR @110.x..I am hitting the limiter just as I as crossing..

Gearbox:- - 2005 Mitsubishi Evo MR
Tyre:- - 2005 Mitsubishi Evo MR Advan 235/45/17
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Top Gear gives 23.005 MPH/1000 RPM and a top speed of 172.535 MPH at 7500 RPM

Engine speeds in top gear:-
30 MPH = 1304 RPM 40 MPH = 1739 RPM 50 MPH = 2173 RPM 60 MPH = 2608 RPM
70 MPH = 3043 RPM 80 MPH = 3478 RPM 90 MPH = 3912 RPM 100 MPH = 4347 RPM

Top Speed in 1 gear = 41.102 MPH
And changes into 2 gear at 5012 RPM dropping 2488 RPM
Top Speed in 2 gear = 61.505 MPH
And changes into 3 gear at 5532 RPM dropping 1968 RPM
Top Speed in 3 gear = 83.380 MPH
And changes into 4 gear at 5753 RPM dropping 1747 RPM
Top Speed in 4 gear = 108.697 MPH
And changes into 5 gear at 5918 RPM dropping 1582 RPM
Top Speed in 5 gear = 137.750 MPH
And changes into 6 gear at 5988 RPM dropping 1512 RPM
Top Speed in 6 gear = 172.535 MPH

The MR is basicly a 180mph+ car with some poer mods and 8k rpm redline

I am looking for something documented but would be happy to take it for a spin and see how different it feels then mine. Shame they did not make Electric Blue in MR

S4toSTI · 07-07-2006, 07:49 PM

ur telling me the speed limit in 4th in the 5 and 6 speed are the same... that sux.

silver05bullet · 07-07-2006, 09:09 PM

i think its around 112 stock but if u raise the rev limiter u can go hire

S4toSTI · 07-07-2006, 09:10 PM

SO 5th must suck.

peteyturbo · 07-07-2006, 10:05 PM

4th gears in the MR and IX 5 speed are very close, yes, but EVO8 5 speed 4th gear is a bit longer, about 120 I think. And yes, they fall on their face when shifting to 5th but the IX is not as bad, but it has a lower top speed I believe..I think with about 600whp and a 9kRPM redline (somewhat common anymore) and aero mods, you can have a 200mph capable MR, don't forget at that speed the MR should be making roughly30% more downforce at that speed then a regular EVO..

peteyturbo · 07-07-2006, 10:12 PM

You bought that car for the COLOR!!!

j/k I was about to get an elec. blue SSL package until I found out I could get the MR for another 700 dollars..

Absolutely 100% yes Searched all dealerships for it. Have no problem saying I got exactly what I wanted. Had two Evos and both were kept inside.. My car and a GG MR.. I had my choice and I chose.

peteyturbo · 07-08-2006, 12:09 AM

Welp, it's a win-win situation I guess..

Pocket_Rocket · 07-08-2006, 08:08 AM

Agree but would love to see that VR4 and have a ride if you still have it.
BTW back on topic.. I am going to go see if the owners manual has it to see if "published"

markley02 · 07-08-2006, 06:05 PM

I would have liked to get it in Blue myself, but I really like the MR
