oh yah, it's night and day power with the stage1 and power delivery is smooth. even down to 1500rpm u can cruise where stock map would bog. plus u can dial how much boost u want on the drive modes. like [1] is 8psi, [S] 15psi, [S#] 17.5psi very cool.

yah, at this point it might benefit to wait for the 2017's too. they might start running the 2L turbo's on the STI's like they already do for JDM.

i like the 2.5L though.. guess im old skool.

the current gen STI is pretty damn sweet. thing drives so nice and the exhaust sounds good. i quickly forget it's a sedan and overall taller dan the Z.

but the Z and G are about styling and sound, along with driving dynamics. u cant get dat from a 4 door sedan.

Ring lands go regardless, the 2.5 is a ticking time bomb. It's gonna go it's just a matter of time

honestly the stage1 with stock intake/exhaust is PLENTY fast for me. even that Im pretty sure it is faster than my Z unless i can engage 1st gear perfectly from standstill at high rpm.

with the accessport, i have launch conTROLLololollol!!
