I have a friend that has an STI and his wife has a EVO, and from what he says the STI is quicker. But the EVO can hold more power than the STI and it has better handeling but that's another story.

The STi is a badass car! Low end torque (off boost torque) is awesome on that car.
But I LOVE my car though! I wouldn't mind owning both. Good thing my friend has one I can drive.

From driving both daily, I would say the STi has it beaten by a good amount. The low end torque with top end HP makes it feel a lot faster even if it's only a few tenths of a second. And just guessing by it's HP and torque advantage over the SRT too, it probably feels faster. Probably because it is.

He never said anything about low end or torque...he asked which car "feels" the fastest...

I vote Evo...the STi works much harder to achieve the same results, and doesn't have the manic boost and corresponding rush of the Evo...the Evo is also more composed at high speeds...

The Evo definitely "feels faster"

I drove several STis and Evo8s before buying the Evo. I bought the Evo because it felt MUCH faster and handled better.
