wtf??



why am I king?

Andy's Grand National would walked me from here to Tallahasse.

The Z just happens to be my daily driver... and it just happens to be fairly quick... nothing special really.

What do you think your car will run in the 1/4 mile redneck?

[CassiesMan]

It depends. The STi is faster, but everyone I've talked to who has wheel time on booth says the EVO is a bitmore fun to drive.

[HighRev87]

None are close to "king of the street" in my opinion. Good cars, but there is much better out there.

The search button is your personal pro bono information whore. LOL. I had the same question and I'm getting an Evo next month.

The dynos I've seen for '05 are spookingly similair between the 2 cars. Both the 2.0L in the Evo and the 2.5L in the STi put down approximetly 235awhp-245awhp depending on the type of dyno. I've seen Evos at 245 and I've seen an STi put down 235 and vice versa.

If by faster you mean top speed...who knows...both cars will do 150mph although the STi is governed I believe. Who the hec would ever go that fast anyways. Maybe if you drive the autobahn to work everyday, but it's not a big deal to me.

If by faster you mean 0-60mph, the Evo is quicker by a slim margin because it only takes 1 shift to get there. The STi maxes out 2nd gear at 57mph. 1/4 mile times are extremely similair too, but it takes the STi another shift to get to 1320ft.

If you plan to mod the engine, the 4g63 in the Evo is the far better platform. The 2.5L turbo in the STi is only found in the USDM STi. The rest of the world had the 2.0L turbo...which WRC mandates to be the most displacement allowed in competition. The turbo in the STi is also pretty much maxed out from the factory at 14-15psi while the twin scroll 16G in the Evo can safely hold 25lbs.
