Ive driven the STI PPP so far. brilliant drive. Evo is tomorrow night.

Im finding it hard to choose. The huge maintance costs for EVO are certainly very off putting but the styling alway looks good. Scoobys are hit and miss. the Hawk eye model looks great. The bloob eye WRX look silly without the spoiler, the StI looks well.

@MattW

In comparison the the STI PPP and the EVO you had. You said the evo was alot faster. Where was this noticable as looking at times and figures they look very similar.

Flump89 also ask yourself if warranty is important to you. If it is then stick with the STI PPP or an EVO FQ whatever (personally I like the 360 from my test drives, but it has a hefty price tag). Warranty wasn't important to me, so I bought a 1 year old hawkeye STI without the PPP and spent a grand on it to get it up to the power levels I wanted. I saved a fortune doing it this way, but of course run the risk of invalidating what is left of my warranty.

IIRC the FQ300 is 4.4 to 60. the FQ330 is quicker. Are you looking at the figures for a GSR?

And yes, massively noticeable.
