Check out this STi/Evo battle on S2Ki

[Boostd4]

You'll have to read through the S2Ki stuff as well as the Naisoc and EvoM boards...some funny reading.

You'll notice that I stood up for the NorCalEvo and SoCalEvo guys in the S2Ki thread .

Enjoy....(btw, thanks for the link Wilson)

And Wilson should thank me who should in turn thank Chris in SD from SoCalEvo. Six degrees and in this case a bit less.

as far as the mitsu sending ringers comment.... what a bunch of BS

at the AWJ dyno day I watched 2 STis put down 235 while a stock evo put 240.... yes they're overrated and we're underrated. Fact is that the STi was pinging like crazy when it was first released. Subaru then offered a reflash that got rid of the pinging, but owners said the car felt slow afterward. So an STi with the reflash is actually putting out more like 280... the '05 is no different but the new revised center diff and helical front help the acceleration make the car feel like it's at full 300hp.

WOW...that would seriously piss off all the peeps that already purchased an STI cause they thought the 2.3ltr was "so powerful"....hahah lolol

i thought one of the reason they didnt bring the 2.0 liter over was because of emission problems. Man if the Spec C come's over, Mitsu better put their game together and bring the FQ.

I don't know how true that is. The biggest reason they went to the 2.5 for the U.S. STi is they can barely get the ej20 to pass emissions in the first place. The standard wrx has 3 cats. '04 wrxs have an enormous pinging problem which one of the media insiders that logs on Junkies is working on getting a reflash issued for. Subaru did everything they could to get the ej20 here and it runs like shit on California gas to the point where the adaptive ECU will no longer raise timing back to stock after a few tanks of bad gas without an ECU reset. How bad??? After 3 tanks of CA gas the WRX Ecu retarded timing 7 degrees and stayed retarded when a tank of good gas was put in. At this point the WRX isn't running the 227 factory advertised HP but rather 200-210. The ej20 is a dirty engine... I don't know how they would come out with a more powerful version of it over here. Why do you think every "performance" model in the Subaru line-up is now using a 2.5 liter turbo.
