Anyway, I was asking more out of curiosity than for any other reasons. I dd my Z, and love it. Have a truck when the weather demands it.

Yeah, i guess to clarify the WRX is much better than the STi in terms of reliability. from what i've read, people get in trouble when they try to crank the boost up on the FA20. It's already running a 10:6 compression ratio with about 20+ PSI of boost flat out.
Supposedly, you can eclipse the STi in power easily in a WRX because of the direct injection system. STis need fuel upgrades to get back in front of the WRX.
Edit: the other option is to wait for the 2021 model being released soon.
