Default MOD the STI or the S

Hey guys ok im having a huge debate as to which car to mod...As it stands i feel like the S is the more fun car to drive which also gets more attention...however i like the feeling of low end torque for eevryday driving.

Now im pretty sure i can easily make much more power with the STI for a lot cheaper..but heres my question..What would you guys do? or has anyone else been in the same situation??

how much do you want to spend? If you're looking to spend $6k+ I'd go with a kraftwerks S/C.

The STI is a million times easier to get power out of, so bang for the buck, I would say STI.... it just depends on what you want to do.

I own both, and my STi is moded, so much more bang for the buck. I left the the S bone stock. No matter what mods (reasonable $$$) I can do to it, she will never be as fast as the STi.
