This is Subaru we’re talking about. It’ll look exactly the same.

5 more horsepower you say?

10 more since the STi first came to US shores, in MY 2004?

How DO you do it, Subaru?

Things it needs:
Twin Scroll Turbo Manifold
Twin Scroll Turbo

Any maybe even:

Forged pistons.

Until it has this the STI is worthless to buy. Golf R, Audi S3, Civic Type-R, Focus RS, and probably the upcoming Veloster N are all better buys.
