Hard to compare unless it's head to head. In my mind my 2003 Evo was faster with 290hp. I might have had one of those fast cars because it put 221 awhp on a heart breaker Dyno.. with a couple of mods and more boost/ tuning it went up a whole 100awhp that day.. insanely fast. Still this m35i brings a smile to my face which reminds me of those boosted 4 cyl days. My current modded e60 twin turbo 6 is definitely more power, but so smooth and quiet it feels slower. On the highway it would certainly start walking away at the top end.
