A stage 2 STi, at 20psi should be pushing near 300whp. (I would know, I used COBB tuning for my WRX)

Man that STi driver can't drive for crap!

Yeah, I can't stand that.

No offense to anyone who's gone through this, but it is very difficult to make a good case for, "my son's first car should be an STi."

Wealth is not a good enough excuse.

Any 2004-2007 STi, with just turbo back exhaust and a mild ECU tune, or basic reflash can hit

265-280whp easily. Maybe more. He's also running 3 differential AWD system with short gear ratio 6spd tranny.

If he looses to you on a 1/4, he fails at life forever. Miserably.

Well you shouldn't mind, he did spend literally 2x more than you did for your tC.

STi's are expensive.
