if that's the case I can clearly say there's no way you can keep up with a stock WRX from roll the weight difference alone (about 500 lbs not 700lbs, 2700lbs vs 3200lbs) is not enough to make up for the difference, by the time you reach that 230 bhp WRX will already be way ahead of you because of the huge TQ advantage |
What about the REAL WORLD part of that did you NOT understand...
This is not fanciful daydreaming while glancing at dyno charts... This is actually running against them in the REAL WORLD...

and 2758-2806lbs versus 3267-3450 so you're looking at as little as 461lbs or as much as 692 lbs difference. for an average difference of 577 and yes it is enough to make up a 35hp difference...obviously because it WAS enough, again, in the real world.
Also, it's pretty obvious that it's not ME who needs to be learning something.. I wasn't the one who said that a 270 WHEEL hp car weighing between 500 and 700 lbs less than a car that makes 234 Wheel hp couldn't walk said car. The STI only makes about 255 WHP and wouldn't stand a chance either.
