The Ultimate 2009 Ralliart Thread mega merge
Road & Track did a nice head-to-head between the 2009 Evo X and STi. I wont spoil it, but heres a spoiler: Evo won pretty much every category 
But, given the discussion about the SST (the 'will it be any good, or just fancy auto?'). here is what they had to say their review:

We spent the bulk of our track session in the Evo MR because we wanted to fully sample the TC-SST. It turns out Mitsubishi brought a shotgun to a knife fight because this gearbox gives the Evo a noticeable advantage. It's so impressive that it set the fastest lap of the day in "full auto" mode. Around the Streets of Willow Springs Raceway, the TC-SST seemed almost clairvoyant as it up- and downshifted exactly where the driver would. Even professional race-car driver Roger Yasukawa said he was comfortable leaving the shifting duties to the computer. I truly believe that the TC-SST may make conventional manual gearboxes, and even other semiautomatic sequential units, obsolete.

Here's a quick video showing the abilities of a well sorted out twin clutch gearbox.
For all the people ragging on the SST, please tell me you can shift your manual trans this quick.
