What about the STI C-Spec? Can the FQ-400 keep up?

He also compared it to a economy car?

Driving in 6th gear from a 10mph roll is kind dumb if you ask me.

According to www.lancerregister.com, the FQ340 is almost as quick as the FQ400 in real world situations (at a fraction of the price).

Turbo lag on the FQ400 is outrageous, making it a very poor choice as a street car (but great on the track where spool-up is less of a concern).
