I drove a WRX when I was buying the BRZ. The WRX had very little torque until the turbo spooled. Granted, its not the same as an STI, but lets be real here. I've driven both, and their isn't much difference in power delivery until over 5500rpm. The STI pulls better up top.

The weight of the car could have a lot to do with it, but the BRZ felt like it had better torque. Especially since it is a smaller engine.
