Not everyone is lucky enough to have owned an Mitsubishi EVO<\/strong> let alone two of them, Ashley ‘MAD BASS’ Burrell<\/a><\/strong> has however been this lucky and he even owned them both at the same time for a while there too!<\/p>\n

Even though the Mitsubishi EVO IX<\/a><\/strong> was Ashley’s<\/strong> favourite car to drive, he said the Mitsubishi EVO X<\/strong> was favourite for Sound Quality<\/strong> out of the EVO’s<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In 2007 the Mitsubishi EVO X<\/strong> became\u00a0available to the public and Ashley<\/strong> was lucky enough to get his grubby little hands on the first one available to the NZ<\/strong> public making it the second EVO X<\/strong> on NZ<\/strong> roads\u00a0as the first one had been scoped up by the head of Mitsubishi NZ<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The model Ashley<\/strong> got was the\u00a0GSR<\/strong> 5 speed manual and had a power rating of\u00a0295 PS (217 kW; 291 hp) at 6500 rpm and 366 N\u00b7m (270 lb\u00b7ft) at 3500 rpm. Even though this model was down on power compared Ashley’s FQ-340<\/strong> by almost 50hp the EVO X<\/strong> is not a slow car by far!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This time round the EVO X<\/strong> was filled to the brim with Digital Designs<\/a><\/strong> audio equipment, including 1 DD-3512-D2<\/a><\/strong> Sub-Woofer, 1 set of DD-AW6.5<\/a><\/strong> Components, 1 set of DD-C6.5<\/strong> Components, 2 DD-A1<\/strong> 2-Channel Amplifiers and 2 DD-M1a<\/a><\/strong> Mono-Block Amplifers!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I personally never got to hear this set-up myself but used to see the car around a lot and used to think “What would that sound like inside the car?”<\/strong> . Lucky for me I’ve had a lot of time to harass Ashley<\/strong> and ask a million and one questions about this car.<\/p>\n

From what I have been told time and again these are the best sounding car audio components Ashley<\/strong> has own in a long time! The DD-3512-D2<\/strong> speaks for itself in my opinion, if you have ever had the chance to owned or hear the DD-3500 Series Subs<\/a><\/strong> you will understand how clear and beautifully sounding they are.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Ashley<\/strong> was saying it was a sad day when he decided to sell the Evo X<\/strong> and move onto a BMW<\/strong>, which is totally\u00a0understandable even though BMW’s<\/strong> are amazing cars in there own right but comparing a BMW<\/strong> to an EVO<\/strong> is like apples and oranges, both very tasty in there own ways yet so different!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I personally loved the way this EVO X<\/strong> looked so got a friend to see if he could paint up an EVO X<\/strong> in Forza Motorsport 4 and I think he did an amazing job of it too!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hopefully I can save enough money so I can do a similar DD-EVO-X<\/strong> build one day but this time round it would have DD-AW6.5 Components<\/strong> all round…<\/p>\n

Hey Dreams are free!<\/p>\n
