    So I rode in my buddy's 04 sti for the first time last night. Mods on the car include turbo back exhaust, intake, perrin fmic, and some springs (not that it really matters, but it was a nice stiff ride:biggrin:). He did a 1st through 4th pull, and grabbed gears as hard as he could, and holy crap, that thing was rediculous! There is nothing like the feeling of all your power actually being put to the ground. I have riden in quite a few fast Hondas (some of them being faster in the 1/4 than the sti Im sure), but all hondas do is spin spin spin...It was cool feeling the car just hook up and go!! And thats about all I have to say about that..

    Yeah I can only imagine what a bigger turbo, 2.5 liter and 2-step would feel like :biggrin:

    I recall when I rode in 6MTizzles STi w/ the 20g in it. That was awesome. That was when I became determined to make my turbo kit work (the 2nd time).

    Carl, I've seen you call yours "piss slow", then I'm not sure what to call my 2.5 n/a because you definately have a weight advantage over my BH. Poop slow?:ugh:

    The last time I rode in a subaru was peter "rabbit" and hercs subaru. They where both insanely fast with the basic mods they had on.
