Poll on STi or EVO MR

[PSiedTSi]

the evo turbo is only a 16g...twin scroll at that...it doesnt lag that bad

[uwatchn]

its pretty much a landslide in desicision fo the Evo
well the sti might of done better if it was in 2f2f instead of the evo for the votes wear people don't judge the pros and cons of each car

Dont you think the STI would have some lag starting in fifth gear also........

I actually voted for the EVO from a pure performance aspect of it over a broad range of scenarios. I'd probably buy an STi out of loyalty to Subaru however and since there are just marginal differences between the two its really too close to call, I'd be willing to bet that most of us in here would have a hard time putting up a consistently better time in either of them.

That being said, what you should have asked is which is better, EVO MR or STi Spec C. In which case the Spec C would be the hands down winner. I was watching a clip the other day where some supercar engineers were driving a Spec C on a track and were basically outraged at the handling and drivability of the Spec C for the cost. Somewhere in there they said that the Spec C is hands down the best car dollar for dollar of any car on the planet...there were no compromises.

Kirk would have to agree with me that they are both pretty much the same car between the EVO and the STi.... i've driven his and he's driven mine... i just prefer mine cause i've driven it more... and i'm sure he prefers his cause he's driven his more...

oopps shit...i was thinking of the evo RS...it doesnt have a wing.

[KA-T_240]

if i dint have to pay wouldn't care. but id take and STI because of the price differance

[JDMSTi]

Im picking the STi for lots of reasons...

Evos have some problems it seems but idk bout the MR

Tjams is right this poll is off cuz it shoul have been the EVOvs STi not EVO MR vs the STi

almost every article i read about the EVO vs STi said that the power was way better in the STi, EVO's run at 19psi and are kinda laggy. Also handling to the EVo was only slightly better than the STi...why? Said that the Evo came w/ more aggressive suspension cuz the STi was built to still be civil to the market out there and came w/ lower spring rates. Also they said the interior felt cheap in the EVO compared to the STi and the interior is how its been since some of the first Evo vs STi comparisons oversees. I think the seats in the STi blow however compared to the EVO's. The EVO's seats feel like my JDM seats from an STi Version 6, but the US STi seats are made for us FAT Americans and suck

Basically the STi is sweet i love it, its got the DCCD differential and the Evo doesnt
Trow some STi pink springs on ur STi and it will handle better than the EVo

But wait till the Spec C gets here...im sure it will be impressive but not nearly as impressive as the cars they already get in japan

I read that they tested a JDM WRX STi Version 8( with a 2.0 mind u) vs a US WRX STI (w/ the 2.5) and the JDM STi had a lap time 2seconds better than the US Version. Just goes to show you how potent those cars are over there, and how things get marketed here, Hence the springs on the STi

So in all reality even our performance cars here in the states arent that great

I think my seats are fuckin pimp. I dunno what youre talking about.

[SmitEvo]

What car would be faster for cheaper with basic bolt on mods?
