well i would hope the STI would be better since it costs over a 1/3 more. However the SRT4 engine seems to be taking to mods far better than the open deck STI. The STI guys were severily embarrased by the evos at their last major showndown because they just could not make enough power.

If you get a bigger aftermarket turbo theres even more power then the stage3, but ya the STi is definetly better with AWD, more power, better handling.

The SRT4 have been praised by every single review for their lack of torque steer. They are given often as an example that a high power FWD car can be made without major TS.

Maybe you were thinking wheel hop.
