that AP probably must be making it run terrible, the factory tune for 10+ is probably better IMHO.
He should call Sean @ FFTEC and sort things out.
dyno number means nothing btw

The good old Evo VS STi thread, both are great cars! The Evo wins hands down mod for mod, much easier to get power from. All around Evos are better cars if you track or drag race! I would say as a DD and a everday car the STi is the better car!

Not really. The Evo is a good car. Get whatever you want.
