Just got done with Ed @ EQTuning roadtuning the car. The powerband is VERY smooth and I am very happy with it. It doesn't feel like the car is accelerating that hard until you look at the speedometer and the needle is moving as fast as the tach hahaha

His software reads stock STi's at about 215 whp and about the same number for torque. Here is what he came up with:

This is on 91, I can only imagine how crazy it would be with 100 octane :eek: (Well it would be around 332 whp/390tq basing them off of Sean's plots)

Our goal was not to push the limits too much so we could keep this car safe for daily driving. Stage 2 was already enough power for me, I don't have any reason to go with some huge turbo or anything like that.

Mods are K&N Typhoon, Crucial Racing Divorced Wastegate Downpipe and Midpipe, Borla Hush, Hallman MBC, Ultimate Racing Uppipe w/ Tial 38mm EWG, Walbro Fuel Pump. The fuel is a little erratic for some reason but the car feels amazing.

Heres a pic of my dyno with my base RSX with I/H/E/Engine Management. As you can imagine this makes me even more happy with the power I'm putting down in this car.

Thanks for the nice review. The 07's are a totally different animal due to the higher compression and revised ECU. I think this is one of the best looking 07 STI curves I've seen to date. The car felt very smooth and damn quick. The longer gearing really makes the 07's feel much more civil than the previous years.
