0-60 MPH 4.8
This was from imprezawrx.com

1/4 Mile split 13.5
Turbo IHI 14.5psi aspect ratio: 18
Alternator 90 amp
has torque graphs (will try to scan later)
intercooler comparisons, sti NA 470mm x 168.5 (still smaller than JDM)
muffler 18L
front cat capacity 3L due to no precat
transmission TY85 (108 kg)
clutch dia. 240mm
frt diff. cam-type
centre diff. DCCD
rear diff. torque-sens. mech.
scissor gears
4 shif forks
high cap. syncronizers:
1 -dble cone, 2 - triple cone, 3 - double, 4,5,6 - single R - double
clutch 2000lbs
FHI Testing: 60 to 0 braking - 36m
coefficient of Drag: .33
Maximum lateral adhesion (Gs) .93 (FHI testing)

.93 isn't even close to .97. I feel this scoobie will have more power than us but we'll have more handling. Unless DCCD plays a huge role

Whichever, I can't wait

That is only 4 hundreths of a g's difference. Unless you test on the same skidpad, in the same conditions, comparisons to that degree of difference are basically worthless.

Compared to what SCC got for the Evo (.95), it is virtually the same. Once again though, without knowing the conditions, meaningful comparisons will have to wait.

The stock STi spec C can run a 8:07 at the Ring (there is a video floating around), that is good enough for me.

Heard from a tester the STI runs 12's easy on good gas(ie, not cali's usual 91 crap).

Hmmm.. i somehow doubt that, and if they did manage 12s stock I think it'll be once in a blue moon, kinda like Silencer and his 13.185s...

I'm thinking the same thing. Ectracting those last few tenths from any car will be all driver. Both these cars will probably regularly hit mid to high 13's in stock form in the hands of decent drivers. For either of these cars to run low 13's or possibly high 12's in stock form will require an exceptional driver hitting his 10/10 run in just the right conditions.
