that is true, but the other reason subaru says they use the ej25 is they claim Americans won't buy a high revving car with no tourque. I have no idea where they got that idea from. I bet if Subaru put the current ej20 in the STI they'd get a massives sales blip for a year or two.

Of course I live in the middle of absolutely nowhere and there are two stations that sell e85 near me. I was shocked when I found out.
