eeeep. I didn't know they were that potent. damn. With such fabulous acceleration, shouldn't their speed max out pretty early? They can't be all that great, can they?

I'm not so sure of that......really no one can even answer the question unless you know the mods on both vehicles. Both cars can very greatly on mods.

A mild sti vs. a 480whp cobra? Either the sti has a lot more mods then "mild" or the Cobra driver can't drive his car. Mod'd sti's or what I would call "mild" run 12's. Rarely will one ever run 11's. A 480whp Cobra should run deep 11's with traction and a reasonable driver.

Sti's are highly over rated and fall into the Urban Legend catagory from my experience on the street with them.

I mised a shift racing a STI and still smoked him. Yes he had mods and I just a Borla & K&N FIPK but after about 90 it wasnt even close. Yess I missed the shift b/c the 04 Cobra shifts sucks (upgrade coming just dont know which one yet?any ideas suggestions) but I made up for it. You should have seen his face when I blew bye him. We stopped on the side after he could not believe how fast my car was and that I still kicked his butt

An STi will rape a GT off the line. From a roll it would be close. Stock for stock, STi should beat a 99-04 GT

Well, we bought into this hook line and sinker.

The person who started the thread never really cared about it. And it was a loaded question from the beginning.

Oh Well, it made for an interesting thread anyways, because I don't believe an Sti is all that great, at least the ones I have come up against.
