Question Usdm Spec V Aus Spec My06sti

Would like to know how the USDM model gets its extra power?
Also does anyone know if the gearing is the same as Aus Spec?

yep what he said about 5th & 6th gears plus we run V43 turbo as opposed to V39 the Yanks get. They also miss out on a number of other things we get here and you can see for yourself on iwsti.com
cheers Dave
