if u only like drag slearly a sti it gets a lot more power to the wheels

Ya but with a lot more unreliability. The fastest EVO VIII on evom.net runs a 9.77 in the 1/4 mile and there are a least 3-4 others in the high 9s the 10s forget about it there ar a ton of evos there. The fastest STi I have ever even heard of ran a 10.2

Go EVO all the way!!

if i bought another one i would go with the 03 or 04.. not a fan of the vvt mivec plus how much is the diffuser really... 100.. 150.... not much

Why aren't you a fan of better gas mileage and more power when you need it>?

Yes but the EVO is alot stronger. the STi requires you to finish a 1/4 in 5th(i think its 5th away) the EVO with a reflash always the car to very easily finish it in 4th . a reflash will bump the revlimiter up to 7800RPMs from 7400RPMs(REDLINE at 7000) and alot of guys actually run them up that high with very few mods.

what do you mean the STi is more sophisticated it has basic limited slip differentials while the Evo has differentials run by computers. Also for the Which to get I would say get the Evo because the engine is stronger and more refined. The Evo cant beat the Sti on the quarter mile but in the corners the Evo would whoop the STi because the STi has extreme understeer while the Evo has little to none,although you wouldnt care about that. So the Evo has more tuning potential for less money because the 4G63T(EVO) can withstand more boost with stock internals(Heard of one running 29psi), but the EJ25 starts with 500cc more displacement but pretty weak block. The choice is basically up to you, which one do you see yourself in?
