50 trim on an EVO should push the same if not more power...and not blow up

...I would say I'm impressed but that much power on stock evo turbo is way doable...

That car was done at MAC Autosport in Parker CO at an elevation of ~6000ft.

You're looking at a chart w/ a 1.26-1.28 correction factor applied. Those numbers should not be compared to sea level numbers. These will be inflated for obvious reasons.

Like others have mentioned... Do that on a stock turbo and I'll be impressed.

not gonna happen....and we all know that. I bet that if you put a 16g on a STI, it would be just as fast, if not faster than an EVO.

Hell, there are more than a few people with 500whp with a gt30-35 and supporting fuel, intercooler mods....my intention of this thread wasnt to bash smog or anyone, just intended to open some eyes.

Well, I think everyone here knows that STIs can make power... maybe some didn't.

Dude, I was kind to you with a smilie in the other thread, but you can't come on an Evo forum and expect us to "have our eyes opened" or suddenly start swinging off the STi's nuts. A lot of us (including me) had WRXes before our Evo and gladly picked an Evo over an STi.

The fact is, several stock turboed Evos have put 400whp down on a dynojet. This is with a smaller turbo than that particular STi has (TD05 housing 16G) and a half liter handicap. This alone proves that an STi with a TD05 will NOT be just as fast or faster than an Evo, but thanks for playing. Also, that car has an injector upgrade. Smoggie's doesn't. You could argue that Tom and I have a turbo upgrade with our titanium 16Gs, but we really don't. Its still a 16G with only a bigger hot side.

The thing I don't like about the US STi its fragile big engine that doesn't like big power or revving that much with stock internals. The Japanese EJ207 is a much better power plant IMO.

All that is a moot point, though, because you're posting about somebody else's car. I could post about the Turbotrix car that ran nines and point out that no US model Subaru with a stock tranny has done that. The real question is, will YOUR car put down that kind of power? Will your car pull on Smog's? If not, you need to stop making posts like this and disengage your ego from your browser. Its getting tiresome and just wasting bandwidth when you make silly comparisons like you are that are not based in reality.

I like STis and WRXs a lot! Some of my best friends have them, and I've made dyno posts of them myself. What I haven't done, though, is make these goofy comparisons that just breed animosity. Take a chill and just relax a little bit. Posting STi graphs is cool. Making replies like the one above are a total waste of time and make people dislike you.

wow, from the sound of it, it looks like you need to chill and relax a little bit. If my comment about the 16g on a STI was wrong, my bad....i guess I should have done my research. Obviously im not going to make a post about my car's 218whp versus smog's.....although it would be pretty funny to see grpah over mine. I made the post against smog's car cause I know him personally, I wouldnt have made such a "goofy comparision" to someone that I didnt know, trying to start a "war" or something...

Moving on, before anyone else desides to vent, maybe we should just erase the thread.
