well.. you have AWD with LSDs and factory rally suspension.. yeah, theyre going to handle better.. the '04 SRT-4's do have a LSD w/ a little more power so it should handle a little better, but not better than the high powered STi or the cat-like EVO

blah.. small displacement over boosted cars.. hehe.. most of my friends drive evo's or sti's ... i was set to get a blue sti but the place sold it right out from under me while i was dealing so i walked out and bought the Z

srt-4 = cant handle worth crap stock

cursing in srt-4 = 95% of the owners are little high schoolers

I thought that srt-4's DID handle well out of the box. I"m not trying to be a smart a$$, but I frequent the srt forums because they have some great vids sometimes. One time some guy posted some thread about not enough vids about the neons not taking twisties. long story short. he got flamed a bit and some of the peeps posted that "well we do canyon runs all the time and those awd cars arent that far ahead" so I figured wow, the only thing to make fun now is the spoiler. LOL, can anyone clear this up.

I could say my gas slurping, 6' lifted, SUV takes twisties well, does that mean its true? its all subjective. from an official standpoint, the SRT-4 Handles the worst out of the Evo,Sti, and SRT-4.

Nice video the Sti owns. There did seem to be a lot of screaching coming from the SRT-4 and it seemed that it had trouble keeping up. I don't know if this has to do with the car or the driver.

I just love the STi vs. Evo battle. The Evo hands down corners better and the STi hands down is faster straight line. I personally dont turn fast (im either a ***** or too smart to do it) so I would like an STi more probably (i like the Evo better though, dunno why?). But if you are crazy and have the ***** to turn like a nut then the evo is better. They are very equal cars in every other aspect, though. Very perfect for factory tuning.

Farage is on a distinguished road
just to make it official. the U.S. Spec EVO handles better than the U.S. Spec STI and goes faster in a straight line as well. if you want proof just ask and ill post numerous sources.

the quote in your sig is friggin funny Farage. LOL

would that be the 05 Evo MR? because all sources/articles I've come across the STI was faster in a line but the evo owned in the corners/tracks.

oh and by the way, its and Evolution (eh-vo-lew-shun) right? than why do alot of ppl say it "eeevo" like the Brits?
