Looks great that!
I seriously considered an Evo before getting the Hawk, they just seem to hold their value more than the Impreza though so would have had to get one a fair few years older than the STI I ended up with.

Well there is 2 printouts lol .... so just grabbed some figures when making my post.
Both printouts were on the same day so i was unsure did they run a hyper power run then drop the power down but I have spoke with the people who have done the work and they have confirmed 408bhp on the day the final map work got done but going to have the rechecked by HQ in the next couple of weeks so i know for sure as apparently its had new injectors since the last map according to the paperwork.
No other mystical reason pal.
Did you think you had caught me out lol?? if i was going to lie i would of said it was rebuilt by Jesus and running 50000000bhp at the wheels which were made of gold I mined myself ;-)
Will post up my results as soon as i have them.

Yeah its here, not for long though as either a mate is buying it in March or I will be selling it to help scratch an itch for more power 
I love the look of the evo mate, but as said just be careful how you deliver the power, I was warned away from evo's so much due to the tranny issues that when I was looking for one that I ended up buying a JDM STI.

Had both scoobs and Evo's(new and older versions of both) If both where similar power, The Evo im my opinion handles much better then any scoob ive owned, but the scoob seems to feel quicker in a straight line. Both great cars and it depends what marque you really like.
Evo seemed to cost a lot more to repair if anything went wrong(clutches where bloody expensive), and the petrol tanks on them seem to be really small, Couldnt get much in and when there was a tank full of petrol it wouldnt last long.
Evo has a better tuning ability, look at how many Evo 8 MR's and Evo 9's get over 400bhp with just a re-map and exhaust mods. but both have there pro's and cons, but would have any of them in a heart beat!!!

Yea I noticed the tank is tiny lol.
I agree with what you say their, general maintenece costs are much and such.
But the expensive thing seems to be clutches. Luckily this has a new clutch and flywheel (lightened) last year.
Still loving it :-)
