Well C&D sucks... from what I know right now, the STi is better. I really need to take the engine apart or talk to someone who does before I can really say the STi is a great car. Just because the 2.0L version of the STi motor is built very strong, I'm not sure if they built the 2.5L. There is a small possibility that FHI just used a refurbished version of the current 2.5L engine since they are only making 230-240whp stock. Only time will tell how good it is. I personally wouldn't buy it the first year just in case.

uh
who would? it wouldn't make any sence. the entire internals are all forged. it has a closed deck block unlinke the wrx which is open deck liek honda's. rumor has it its pretty much a beefed up legecy? motor from japan. which is a turbo 2.5. C&D is trash. how is somethign thats faster in everyway and has a better interior (can't fuck with the seats) worst then the car that was slower with a cheaper one? could we say politics?

another thing about the STI, Mike, why is it only running 15psi? safety
That setup on pump gas on the street is easily 19psi, that'll make up for those 2tenths fellas (and btw 19 is what the EVO was boosting)

all I can say is that we'll see when they come out. All the magazines are posting different times with the cars. SCC says that they don't change the #'s at all. Its just raw data. I got the new magazine today and it has test drives of both cars. The cost will be the determning factor IMO. The evo will be much cheaper, especially since you have to buy a head unit and speakers just to listen to some tunes. (stock radios usually suck any ways)

i like C&D and they've come down alot with their reviews. Usually it's 60k+ luxury cars and euro rockets. but now they're getting a bit more grass roots. motortrend is just as good imo. SCC is probably the best publication for the dragva community as a whole.
