No personal experience with the FA20DIT vs EJ25, but from what I have read, the FA20 appears to be stronger than the EJ. What about the EJ makes it more desirable to you than possibly another modified FA20 engine? Just curious
I wanted something that I wouldn't have to modify from the factory. It's a great car in stock form without having touch anything.

The main issue with the WRX with the FA20 is that it has a lot of Rev Hang.

Sure, maybe you can modify it and make it amazing, but I don't want to modify the car, so when comparing in stock form I believe the STI was the better decision for me and my needs
