They're easy to mod and get good gains from. Stock they aren't anything to jump for joy over.

Having fully built an STi, if I had to do it all over again I would have built up an EVO IX instead. Way cheaper and easier to mod / do work on, much easier to get power out of.

Why is that? I know doing work on the WRX is a PITA, having helped my friend put in a cobb up pipe, DP, and turbo back. Jesus, we were at it all day for a friggn pipe swap. But he felt the gains were good.
