no comment, on that above statement.
BUT i will say that the trap seems kinda weak at 113. sc'd s2k are trapping in the 110's all day on stock setups. with as little as exhausts i've seen two VTSC trap at 114. i know its apples to avacados but still, a standard VTSC puts a little over 300 to the wheel. so are these 07 S1's really making 330+ to the wheels?
thats why i love to look at trap speeds, it really shows the power a cars making. E.T is really meaningless, unless your brackert racing.

I don't know man, I was an STI owner and it is kinda true that they jump the gun a bit. Top Speed IS known for super high dyno readings and funky time slips. You can get a 320 from Top Speed and 280whp from anywhere else.
I'll believe it when they have time slips scanned.

I'm not going to say that the new STI is faster than an EVO, or will beat one mod for mod, but I'll say that the big-turbo advantage that the EVO has always had is gone, so the score is even so to speak.

"I for one have just grown sick and tired of the Subaru Community, you guys by far talk the most sh*t and back nothing up. When ever there is some glimmer of hope, you guys just let the flood gates open, it is just sad."
What the hell? I don't think that's ever been present in this forum and to take such an attitude here is pointless. wenkrismich is an idiot for bringing these feelings here where no such "war" exists.

So the score is even, yet the Evo is still faster?
1. A stock '07 STI is quicker than any stock USDM EVO ever produced.
2. A 5-speed EVO no longer has the huge gearing advantage that it used to, and the 6-speed has none.
3. When the modding starts, a IX will still outgun an '07 STI .

Doug is the best that the US has to offer, so you're likely to see higher numbers come from him, and that's just that.
