but i didn't come here to brag about my car, only to quell your suby-hating bonfire.
for a car that's $4-5K less than an Evo8 in my area, that's pretty damn good. that is unless of course, you're so completely brainwashed by Al's suby-bashing that you can't form any sort of objectivity.![lol](https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/images/smilies/lol.gif)

For example - to be bragging about how fast you can go on 3 cylinders - thats a typical slowbaru statement
Evos are fast enough we dont have to make excuses

you're the king of excuses Al. do you seriously want me to go thru each of your nasioc excuses when you challenged ESX at last yr's east coast shootout??
![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)
right now we've got an Evo8 guy in nasioc, blubyou2 (AKA evo8power, who got banned form here as well) who has nothing but excuses. "oh my car was untuned." "oh my synchros weren't working." "oh my dynoflash is losing power"
excuses are like a-holes, and Al has more than 1.

Most of them are bone stock down there too. Subaru clearly made a mistake in not going five-speed. I dont know if this was said but apparently the Subaru STi automatically loses .3 seconds on each run solely due to the short gearing. I can dig up the article if the troll comes back and wants to challenge this. ![lol](https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/images/smilies/lol.gif)
![lol](https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/images/smilies/lol.gif)
making excuses? i ran 12.1 secs on a stock wrx block! that's only 3 tenths slower than what Al ran on his STi. given how sihtty the car was running and yet running that fast...how is that making excuses? unless you're completely clueless.
![lol](https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/images/smilies/lol.gif)
as for subaru going with a 6speed instead of a 5....the 6 speed gearing is intended for rallying, not drag racing.

![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)
subaru's mistake is not on the 6 speed, it is on the semi-closed deck block, hyperutectic pistons, and smaller cylinder heads.
![Thumbs Down](https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/images/smilies/smilie_thumbsdown.gif)
regardless, a rebuilt sti engine (ESX) vs. a rebuilt evo8 engine (turbo trix), clearly shows the rebuilt sti as the winner so far.

that it settles it then. a rebuilt sti engine vs. a rebuilt evo8 engine means the sti engine wins.

umm...because i don't have a shop-sponsored car.

i have probably spent 1/5th of the cost that they have put into their Evo8s.

Please. We have had more "My car is faster for less money" arguments than you can imagine. If that is your only point ..... you made it. If you just want to stir the pot, please post somewhere else. Thanks.

nah. my point was you put the fastest evo8 and the fastest wrx in a race and the winner, as it stands today, is the wrx.
i don't have any qualms racing AMS's evo8, but then what would you say if i told you to go race ESX's wrx?
