For power your STi only has exhaust and conservative-but-better-than-stock engine management. Especially from a roll a C6 should have slaughtered you.

Anyone driven a C6? I have. My brother bought one 2 weeks ago and let me drive it for 1/2 hour....by myself (he trusts me). That car - at highway speeds - is a freakin monster. Cruising at 55, you can drop it in to 2nd (not a typo) blast up to 80, hit 3rd and blow past 100. I'm sure what Sti guy is saying is true, but C6 man was either a) not trying very hard, b) caught way off guard, or c) a complete idiot. I'm not super knowledgeable when it comes to quick little 4 bangers, but the C6 will eat up many cars from a highway roll. The car will do 180! Do you think it takes 10 years to get it up there? It pulls hard from 50 right up through 140. Oh yeah, it ain't too bad from a dig either.

Put me in a C6 and I'll race an STi from highway roll all day long.

I honestly dont believe a C6 is going to beat an STi off the line. Maybe the STi will lose in the long run die to the AWD slowing it down but an slightly modded STi should pull 1.7's and 1.8 short times all day long on a decent track. A C6 might do that with drag radials but doubtful. The modded Z06 was pulling 2.0's and 2.1's all night last night on BFG drags. But I know, I know... he was a terrible driver or something was wrong with the car, or he wasnt getting into it, or some girl flashed him her **** as he just pulled off the line and he was distracted or something to that affect.

Did you read the story? The race was from a roll and the C6 had a head start. Something's not right with this picture.

Here is a stock C6 on the stock tires: http://www.dragtimes.com/Chevrolet-C...slip-5954.html

He only needed 400 flywheel hp to run that

Say what you want but a C6 is stomping the **** out of an Sti. If the race is for 30 feet, then maybe the Sti wins.

(header...yes one, up-pipe, down-pipe, cat-back, Cobb stage2, Autometer C2 egt/boost/oil pressure), B-force Project Mu pads, Goodridge SS lines, Tanabe GF springs, KYB adj. shocks.

with that stuff he probably has at least 350 awhp.
My buddies EVO makes 352 awhp with full bolt-ons, cam gears/ methanol injection....I doubt homedude makes 350awhp....

I also ran all over the EVO with only 367rwhp on DR's....a stock C6 should make 350rwhp+ and not have much trouble with one from a roll.
you claim to run all over everything. let's let him post his power. i know a guy with with similar stuff on his wrx and he makes almost 300 awhp. and the STi has 70 more hp stock......so do the math

Until you run out of happy gas that is, then you're nothing more than a sitting firechicken for the evolution.
