06 STi vs 06 Evo IX
Well Ive made up my mind. Here are my two choices. Now I'm going to sell my 03 RR Evo VIII in the spring of 06. Why because I want (ACD) Im curious which car will put down the most power with the fewest mods.
The one thing I have to give to the STi is the 6 speed tranny. Also interior.
I give the Evo the engine and maybe looks, and handling.
I know a few of you are in the same boat as me.
As for power, Ive seen 05 Evo's with TB exhaust, boost controller, flash, putting down 300+whp.
My friends 04 STi put down 305whp 340wtq with TB exhaust, K&N drop in, Utec 19psi.
Time will tell my decision.

Rumour are rumours, but the word is that the '06 USDM STi will be a totally re-designed (ground-up) model based on the new Impreza which I think is being launched in Japan in May of this year. It will probably sport the new front bumper which I'm sure will look a gazillion times better than all the photoshops floating around at the moment. Not sure when it will arrive here, but I've heard that Fall-time is a distinct possibility (possibly to coincide with the US availability of the IX ?).
Given the fact that it's a complete redesign (much like the Evo X will be) I expect there to be some surprises in store in terms of specs/power output etc.
