It's not saying that you wasted your money as you worked with what you had. But I tell all my friends with STI's that honestly when it comes to comparing money/mods and power the Evo is way cheaper to make more power and is a superior engine.

In either case enjoy the car among your peers that's a very fast STI.

Anyways, the runs looked great and no need to compared a STi to anything else, as long as your happy with your car, that's all that matters! More power to you!

if your trying to be ironic.....

than im sad for you that you invested all that money and you are "actually" happy with the outcome.

I got a lot of breaks on my setup and it's not really a drag car, I just drag race it when there aren't any time attack events or HPDE's to go to, in which it does pretty well at.
