From being on both sides of the spectrum, I currently own an STi and have alot of driving time behind Evos, I can say stock to stock I like the STi more (STi vs Evo 8). I can feel the power alot more in the STi than I can in the Evo...it's a whole different ball game modded though.

One thing I also noticed comparing the evom forums to the iwsti forums, people on the sti forums respect your cars alot, they never bad mouth evos. But when I come here, I see alot of trash talking about the STi...reflection of maturity?

those dudes said they were having the clutch slip.......she its wither they cant drive worth a lick or when u launch an AWD car a **** load of time the cluth does tend to start slipping.........just my $0.02
