got almost 400 miles on it already.well, you know what the brakes are like
the power is amazing.
even with before the break in is finished, I can pull nice 6th gear passes on Rt 1 without getting over 4 grand and the pass is completed at lower than half boost

Very cool, Chris. Yep, low-end Torque is Da Bomb
. Coming from my SS (approx 340 ft-lbs....at the wheels.....at 3000 RPM) you really notice the lack of it in the WRX. WRX pulls better at high RPM though 
As for the brakes : I need to try different pads in the WRX Brembos. My SS will still (easily) outbrake the WRX despite weighing a good half-ton more! A pad swap (and better street tires) on the WRX should solve that one though...
