315hp stock and NA. She has an exhaust which might add 5-10 hp to that.
Of course it's RWD so a lot more power is put to the road. Stock these things dyno at 250-270 whp which is where my modified STi was. But the real joy is the absolutely flat torque curve.

Like a dream. It's a whole different kind of power. Handling is superb, but more than that you feel connected to the car and the road.
Obviously I need to drive it more and get used to everything, but my initial impression is that it is going to be a blast to drive. While my STi had oodles of power and handling it didn't feel nearly as refined.
Fortunately it's still a hatch so Aaron won't disown me.
