When the Stig tested the STi vs. Evo X, he pulled a faster time in the STi.

FQ360
366bhp at 6887rpm and 363lb ft (492Nm) of torque at 3200rpm

titanium aluminium alloy turbo fins

0-60mph in just 3.9 seconds and on to an electronically limited top speed of 157mph. By comparison, the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S, which costs almost twice as much, takes 0.9 seconds longer to reach 60mph from rest.
