yeah, there was a subaru dealer, and they basically said i can test drive it right before i finnish all the paperwork to buy it. i walked down the street to acura. and they let me in a used evo RS with exhaust and intake. its really not that quick compared to the STi i drove(my firends). after the Evo, i got in a 06 RSX-S in copperhead orange and man that thing is a hot car, doesnt seem much faster than my car, but i could be wrong.

hmmm

2006 STI
0-60: 5.1
1/4: 13.5

2005 EVO 8 MR
0-60: 4.8
1/4:13.3

Interesting!

the 05 STI was a little quicker. they changed the default torque distribution of the DCCD in 06 to balance it further forward which made it a little slower. the EVO still owns all the STI's in braking and handling

yyeah, i drove a RS that was traded in with a intake, BOV, exhaust. it could have been a messed up car for all i know. i just remember the STi pulling alot harder.

MR has the the same HP as the RS and is heavier

bah, it felt slower to me. my friend ran his STi at a track all stock and ran a 13.2 in his 05.

this was a 04, which i dont believe had mivec, but im not sure.

the torque out of that boxer 2.5 makes it feel alot faster. they aren't though. they are very closely matched. it could of also just been an abused EVO

yeah thats what i was thinking. its not like the evo wasnt fast. way faster than the RSX-S i drove that was BNEW and the GSR i have, but it just didnt feel faster than the STi. the thing was modded, and traded in at 34,000miles, and was at the dealer for like 3 months. theres gotta be problems with it.

is that the rsr exhaust on your car? got any vids or soundclips? i love the sound of the rsr on DA's, never heard it on a dc gsr.
