And I've never had a jack stand give out on me.

How does a jackstand "give out" by the way? Sounds like you either used to light of a jackstand but most likely improperly used the jackstand. Ive never seen a jackstand crushed by a car or truck. That's about the only way it can just "give out" completely on it's own.

If that Evo legit makes 500+, its more than a 12X car. My 392whp Evo IX SE trapped 119.

Tuning can make or break those cars. If its FP black on a stock long block, then its tuned to keep the torque down. I ran FP black cars down in my stock turbo car all day long.
