im dont know for the internal parts...but i can comfirm the rear bonet from MR lighten than the EVO8...

 

[aycy]

lighter due to the aluminium roof...

 

[BDK8671]

I tot only the roof is aluminum .... rear bonet as well ?

IINM the camshaft profile is slightly different and there is minor variation in turbocharger
Other than that there are no difference
And oh yes,stock EVO Turbocharger never did come with Ball Bearing
EVO Hood/Trunk is always made from aluminum(CT9A anyway)
Aluminum roof only on CT9A after EVO VIII MR and no sunroof

Evo8 rear trunk is not aluminium, it is damn heavy metal. don't believe? take out yours and see.

[aycy]

the different MR version wth others ver 8 they came with a revised limited-slip front differential, aluminum MR shift knob, handbrake with carbon fiber handle, 17 inch BBS wheels, aluminum roof, and a 6-speed manual gearbox. The new Evolution also sported chrome housing tail lights and head lights.MR also uses slick-response Bilstein shocks for improved handling. Detail improvements have also been made to Mitsubishi’s own electronic four-wheel drive, to the ACD 5 + Super AYC 6 traction control, and to the Sports ABS systems.

Actually what you said above is more or less applies to USDM Model but not JDM Model
JDM Model 8 vs 8 MR=
1.)Bilstein Shock
2.)Aluminum roof on non sunroof car
3.)Different interior(Alcantara trim for VIII MR,Feux-Carbon Fiber CF Trim on A/C Srip)
4.)BBS Rim
5.)Vetex Generator
6.)Exposed Carbon Fiber Rear Spoiler
7.)Smoked Headlight and Tailight
8.)Slight different on turbo/camshaft/piston as mentioned above
