Just like the GT v. B debate, above 100 I'll be ahead....

Do our cars even go that fast?

....but yah, not sure how it applies to the suby v. mitsu debate, but an STI (or specB) needs 3rd to hit 60 (I think I can get to 57 in 2nd)....now throw some twisties in there and it'll be a different story WRX v. Evo....

I'm not a "pro" when it comes to handling, but all the reviews I've read apparently from professional drivers show the "MR" evo handle better than the subaru. and the unspoken of debate when it comes to power and 1/4 when being modded is clearly with the evo.

i think one of the biggest advantage with the subaru is taht the company may still be around in a few years where mitsu may not..

and its FFTEC btw to the one who mentioned it and yes they are CRAZY FAST. i would back down on any type of quick run in a straight line if I see an fftec tuned evo.

STi's would be crazy fast too if they had twin scroll turbos with 20-21 lbs of boost, oh & don't forget about that relocated windshield wiper fluid bottle & battery in the trunk, mad weight balance yo!

^And those fakeass portholes that'll help cool off the hot engine bay haha! Don't you know for every sticker you put on your car, especially aftermarket companies, you gain 5+ hp/tq, F&F movies proved that lol. If you buy 'em at the flea market or swap meet you'll instantly feel more power & look super cool in the process, ain't nothing like putting companies that you don't even have on your car or rocking that infamous "powered by" decal, making sure everyone notices who made your car, as if the factory badges weren't enough hehe!

No, it is the mechanical physics of the gear ratios.
