UPDATE. I spoke with a friend the other day, who drives a Mazda Speed. The Suby, was in fact a WRX with STi wing. I knew whatever it was had turbo, from the BOV. So that clears that up. Yes watchyosix, haha, I baby my S. I know its a sports car, but you must understand. I was used to driving a 2001 Prelude. Theres a biiiiiiig difference. Im sure I'll come around as my confidence builds with a much much faster car.

Remember, alot of people that buy the STI trade the trunk (with wing) with wrx owners for a spoilerless rear. That would mean there's alot of "STI" wings out there on non-STI Subbies. It also means there's alot of sleeper STI's out there if they remove their badges . This is the route I would take if I bought an STI.

Well, I HAD a S/C'd S with the A/C and smaller pulley and I still think that at the higher speeds, it would beat my STi. I really miss my S. I know though anywhere down low, the STi would ass rape my S. I currently have a TBE and a larger top mount I/C. I have a different turbo going in sometime in the next two weeks, along with larger injectors, fuel pump, and a reflash of the ECU. I am curious to see how I will run with my fellow S2K buddies who are boosted once the new mods are installed. We are having a "tech day" in Flagstaff in a few weeks, so I will post how I run against the boosted S2K on the freeway.
