Im hoping he'll be broke after the trade in so I have ahwile I guess, damn maybe I shouldve gotten that sti, instead of my gti..

My buddy has the 2008 STI w/COBB Stage II, CAI & a full 3" exhaust. That thing pulls like a Grand National.

haha you and i think alike, i actually went and saw one this weekend and made me debate on ordering that coveted ko4 ive been thinking about.

yeah ... if i really wanted one, i wouldve had a sti a long time ago, i just dont feel like paying $500 - $600 on car payments ... and more on insurance ... so im definatly getting that k04 ...

and we dont really need awd for a dd here in vegas ...

I almost bought a '11 WRX.
it's gotta be at least 200awhp out of the box. Subaru's stock tunes are terrible though so you should have him no problem at effing all when he's stock.

But as soon as he starts putting money into it i think you'll have to work hard. If you want comparisons you need to come down one of these friday nights!

I'm not putting anymore than 3-4k into my car performance wise. That's why the ko4 wont make me feel bad about myself for dumping all this money for a car Hahah.

I know dude my car is still in the shop though. He said it should be done Friday/Saturday. I got into my accident right after the euro meet and I have a fuel pump and intake waiting to be installed. I'll try to make it out asap haha

I put a good number a car lengths on a new wrx with giac 91oct file and p-flo intake to 130mph. I kept putting distance on him until I had to let off.

i just noticed this, but you have a k04 ... the other guys that were saying they won against wrx's have k03's ...

I heard that loucfr......I'm doing straight cosmetic and maintenance mods, until I can buy a WRX. a few upgrades, and it will be pushing 400hp and 200 lbs lighter than the gti. It's the path to success!

I feel that Subarus and Evos are the way to go if you want fast performance. But, we have something to our advantage over Subaru any day. Gas Mileage!

Outcome sounds completely plausible. It takes the WRX a second to get up and going from a roll. From a dig most of the time its game over for the GTI though.

the wrx isnt 200 lbs lighter than the gti ...

A 2011 wrx weights 3008lbs and a 2010 Gti weights 3034lbs. So the Wrx is actually lighter but only by 28lbs lol.

And Tadddd your right about the gas milage, thats one things I miss about the gti.
