here is what I don't understand, SRT4 has a bigger turbo, FMIC, larger displacement, lighter, and FWD. if a WRX is equiped with a 16G and FMIC stock. it would be in mid's 13 stock!
point is, I am disappointed with the SRT pefroemace. a 2.4L-T should produce more impressive #s. (ps, not to mention WRX has 3 cats) yup, I am a sore loser.

from what i've heard...
only what i've heard... the srt4 is a bit underrated hp wise... i think someone told me they put 220something to the wheels... and tq is like 275, you wonder why he walked you? i just know that the car is way underrated. american tq is a killer in a drag race tho... and mind you, that's what i've HEARD... i'm up for being proved wrong...

EJ20, you answered yourself why the SRT-4 doesn't pull better 14mile times than the WRX. It's FRONT WHEEL DRIVE. There's a reason the "good ol' boys" of drag racing call FF cars "wrong wheel drive": the arrangement isn't suitable for the strip, no matter what Super Street says. Thanks to its commendable AWD driveline, the WRX can out accelerate the potent Neon. A shame, but a truth of physics.
Now, I will say this. The SRT-4 proved last year in the SCCA Pro Rally that it is MORE than capable of dominating 2WD Rally events. It's powerful, bullet-proof in reliability (you get that from using the technology that's been lying around in your warehouses since the early 80's), and quite quite nimble. A more fitting comparison, I'd think, would be to match the car up with its size and price point competitors; Mazdaspeed Protege, SVT Focus, Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V, Volkswagen Golf GTi, and Honda Civic Si. Can you see now just how good the car is in its segment?

I understand SRT4 are faster car, I just think with all those goodies on the car, it should perform better.
when and if I ever see one around, I would love to run him/her. by then I should have a 2.5 stroker kit done. yup, I am a big cheater.

I don't care how fast it is, I'd rather have an Impreza with a longitudinal boxer engine and AWD than a Dodge with a transverse 4 cylinder and FWD. Just my bias of course :hehehe:

i saw the dyno on sport compact car. the car put out more then 225hp at the wheels, and 250ft of torque at the wheels. i forgot the exact numbers, but its definitly higher then the factory rating at the crank.
