Getting used to the speed of light...
 
not sure if anyone like me is starting to get use to the speed of a standard STi?

not that it is not fast, on the contrary, i just mean that i'm starting to get use to the blistering launch speed and I'm begining to think of adding a few mods and changing a few things...

I agree. I think I want the top end whack together with the great torque it already has. I wanted to keep it stock, especially for warranty purposes, but I'm now seriously thinking about adding some mods. The Vishnu stage 1 kit is sounding mighty attractive. Don't want anything too loud though...

Yeah the Vishnu Stage One...umm...yeah...good. The EVO stage one actually made power delivery smoother.

Even though I havent fully experienced the full power of the STI yet, I have felt what it has to offer.

Acceleration from 4k to 5k is very nice. After that it almost feels like reving and no pulling.

Im looking for it to pull to 6k at least. Im not sure if the stage 1 will do this for me. I also wish I could change the gear ratios. First gear is WAY to short. But I guess we would lose the 0-60 times if this was done...

Ive had the car for 3 weeks now and im already looking into the 450hp turbo with full exaust ect...

and maybe get rid of that wing. Im 29 and I kinda feel like a big kid in a little kids toy. I dont know...


We shall see...

450bhp sounds kinda reasonable to me ;)
