Welcome mate, sounds like you are on the right track already. The FA20F should be singing once you get it tuned, especially with a
verticooler and exhaust. Be sure to throw some photos up and dyno plot up when it is tuned.

IF he has no intention on taking the car to the track then the extra $20k worth of goodies is hardly necessary, the WRX is probably more comfortable on the street. Plus the latest gen WRX does come with a decent 6-speed (
albeit not the full monty STI DCCD spec box) and comes with the 2.0 direct injection boxer with all the latest bells and whistles. Whereas the STI is
still using the EJ257 which may be bigger but I would struggle to call it a better engine.
I wouldn't bother with the STI until they offer a newer direct injection, twin scroll engine that they have been whispering about for the last few years... if that happens.
