I have a lot of respect for evo's but it really pisses me off when people say that they are much faster then STi's bolt on to bolt on. I think it's not true until the 06 Evo 9 came out then they really started getting much faster part versus part against the STi's. But Evo 8's I completely disagree on

s2kguy states facts from his expierence like we do from ours. many guys, me, blessed, nate(s), justin, dave a ton of guys with very minor mods and with stock cars have been able to hang with sti's.
the fact is, the sti doesnt trap strong. maybe 1-2mph faster than the s2k. i trapped 100 stock, and call it 106 modded, and i could PUNISH a stock sti from a roll at any speed. of course from a dig i get killed, but i still raced from a dig, and then went fishing and reeled them in and by 110 i was walking on by.
but with very minor mods, the sti can lay the smack down, and thats a fact.
same goes for 03-04 evos. but past 05 youve got to have some mods to hang with a stock one.
that being said, at this point in my life, i probably would trade my s2k for an STi if i could get a killer deal one.

but almost 2 years ago. at the point i was in my life. straight up traded my STi for the S and have never looked back.
