well this little sti went 12.6 @ 108 on a stock turbo with intake and exhaust, 12.4 @ 110 with e manage, and 12.05 @116 with a slipping clutch, a bolt on turbo, supporting mods and a crappy tune. at the shootout I'll be trapping at 120+, I love my sti but feel the evos will have the upper hand at the shoot out, sti's just dont have enough r&d time in yet

The EVO's will probably make a better showing, but we Subaru owners will hold our own.

I'd like to see the main competition between REAL street cars. Daily drivers owned by Joe Schmo.

Of course I wanna see the full on drag cars that happen to have full interiors... but lets face it, most of those are gonna be trailored in... they just happen to be tagged too.

I thought the STi's in the states had a 3 point something liter motor, larger than the JDM versions... I also thought they were faster... and cheaper.

USDM STi's have a 2.5 liter flat-four, that revs to 7200. JDM STi's have 2.0 liter flat-fours that rev to 8200, 8600 reliably with engine management. The JDM 2.0 is what I have, I am NOW revving mine as of Sunday to 8500.

As for faster/cheaper, you mean the JDM STi's vs USDM STi's? In Japan they have ALOT of special editions of everything, EVO's included.

For Subaru, theres the S202, 22B, Type R, Type RA, Type RA Spec C, Spec C, etc, etc... just to name a few... all of which are dependent on what version of the car, ie- Version 1-Version 8. Just like there's EVO 1-8.

Anyway, the fastest Subarus are the Version 7 Type RA Spec Cs and the Version 8 Spec Cs (no Type RA model).

Those cars run 12.6-12.8 right out of the box.

Look there both great cars, it just comes down to that the evo was built better and reponds to mods better.
