if you are going to track a lot then cooling is the biggest issue. The track group on facebook seems to like 25 row setrab units. And frankly with some of the under hood temps reported might as well try and figure out extra cooling for everything else at the same time too. But that really depends on how much you can push the car, and on how much data acquisition you plan on using to see how high temps get. Some people have reported 250+F temps just canyon carving in the summer in cali and texas.
An ace header, a tune, and e85 evaporates the torque dip, which honestly is not a big deal to begin with, since daily driving is always below it and racing is always above it.
The big question is will you miss the power of the STi? You have to be willing to drive the 86 like you stole it, and so many seem to be unwilling to do that. You rev it out and the car is just flat out awesome. But it is still 100 hp and even more torque down from an STi.
