Definitely do not want to evolve before enhancing to the max. Cards that are evolved before maxed are not worth anything so when you want to trade them away later no one will want them.

Personally i value imperfect ex cards less than the regular unevolved card because the unevolved card still has potential to be PMed, while the imperfect ex is a ruined card.
