id say thats exactly why teejay.. just saying that the 2.5 has more useable powerband for daily than the evo did.. the evo had more top end power but it had to be over 4k rpm to be fun, it was sluggish off boost.. downright lame actually

I dont agree, especially if it had exhaust and tune.

Ive driven/belted, Evo wise

6, 6.5, 7 GSR, 7 RS, 7 GTA, 8 ADM, 8 JDM, 8 MR, 9, X

They basically never ever feel lame, the same things that make them annoying day to day is what give them character.

Depends on what you want to use the car for and what appeals to you the most

I made this choice about 5 years ago and went with the 8MR. Sure the sti had more creatures comforts etc and there is no getting away from that boxer note! But in the end I knew the car wouldnt be used as a daily driver and at the time and there werent many Evo's around at the either. Plus after after test driving both I personally preferred the Evo.

I have driven a 9 and a X.
Anything but lame. Power was instant smooth all the way to the redline.
