Rep Power: 0 i personally think that the sti looks alot better than the evo! i would go with the sti just cause mitsubishi has had so many problems with their engines and i think that subaru has a higher resale value!

Rep Power: 0 You can check this video and decide if you like the evo: http://www.imprezawrxsti.com/images/evovssti.WMV
Personally, both cars are powerful but I'd choose the evo because of better handling

Damn, this has become a heated topic. Hey man look at it this way.
1. You have an evo...this thing is one of the highest anticipated cars to be imported into the us
2. With the sti, yah u got a beefy car...BUT U STILL ARE DRIVING A SUBARU. (where were they b4 the wrx.....cough..cough.....uhh i think they produced some pretty crappy cars.)
3. Yah the subaru has a 5 year warrenty....well if u watn a warrenty i heard hyundai is giving out a 10yr one.....IF ANYONE OF US ARE ON THIS FORUM WE KNOW WARRENTYS GET VOID QUICK WHEN THE MOD BUG BITES!
4. Who cares that the car is in the fast and the furious....if anything it will raise the resale value b/c everyone will want one.
Thats my 2 cents.....dont buy a subaru.....if u want a fast pos i can get u an accent and put a huge turbo and some nos on it.....they are ugly! and if u think they are all that...go down the road to audi and look at the new S4......that thing has a v8 in it!!!!

Rep Power: 312 i just found something out about a lancer.
I was talking to an evo owner while at R&E racing yesterday, and he was buying some C10 race gas. So i asked him why he was doing that. He said its because they require 94 octane gas, and we can only get 91 here. So he has to put 3 gallons of C10 with the rest of the tank of 91 octane so it wont detonate. That stuff is like $3.00 per gallon!
But he said he runs a 13.2

Rep Power: 0 If i was undecicsive about a lancer or a sti i would go
lancer its cheaper by 10000 well the sales guy at franks subaru told me a sti was gonna be about 40000 and the evo 8 is 30000 its about 10 grand less for almost as much horespower besides i think the evo8 looks better . But dont get me wrong bolth cars are incredible cars . Ive read the evo8 handles really well but is not as comfortable as the sti on the inside and driver comfrot is big if your using it as a daily driver .

personally, i think i would go with the evo unless that is true about having to add that crap so it does not detonate, thats too expensive, if thats true, id go with the sti, either way, im still jealous

Rep Power: 0 I would take the sti over the evo for the engine setup.
sti is running 14.5psi with cr of 8.2:1
evo is running 19.0psi with a cr of 8.8:1
which engine will have the more wear and tear?
pricing Road & Track as tested:
evo VIII=30,062
wrx STI=32,550
