i highly doubt that subaru would make more hp on the sti,i may be wrong though

i think this because if subaru cant produce 300hp without pinging, then they would have to upgrade to support the 300hp....i am not sure but i think after the reflash there is under 300hp on the sti's now =(

we can hope, and it might come true....in japan that is...

u guys still remember we are representing the 4 cylinders and wooping *** =) power is not the most important, its balance

thats why the evo in japan wooops all ***, its less hp than the STi, but on the track its so balanced that ill beat a lot of cars, the torque to hp is balanced well, the sti here is very balanced too 300/300, itll wooop asssssssssssssssssssssss here. drag racing, 4 cynlinders can woop on v8's or watevers because its more balanced, the v8's weigh too much and have a big engine with muscle, yes strong but slow for its strength.

Who cares if they add power remember this is a turbo car you can add power with the turn of a dial and pinging only happens with 91 octane.

PPP coming soon and if you bought your car from a good dealership they'll honor anything. Friend blew his engine w/ N02 (not an STI) dealer laughed as the replaced his burnt pistons on Subies dollar.

There is also many ways to hide the fact that anything was ever changed from stock.
