Difference in STI vs GT bottom end

Yeah the s402 puts out the same higher power figures (as WRX STi).. so guess it would have the same engine & internals (forged pistons) as WRX STi.. I am pretty sure I read somewhere that this was the case..

at that point everyone laughed at him because he initially said it was 100% liberty STi he was referring too hehehe
Thats my humour for the day.. some people got no idea wot there talking about
Thanks again for the help guys

You should have posted his email on this thread and everyone from the forum could have emailed and joined in on the email war, he would have been slightly out numbered l :lol:

i dunno :S

Good question - isn't the S402 a 2.5L motor? And WRX STI is a 2.0L ?

JDM WRX STi = 2.0L

AUDM/USDM = 2.5L

Mmmmm 402 twin scroll yummy.

but anyways... turbo kicks in a lower rpm, hence you will have more usable power down low, hence he would be correct.
Easist way is to throw 2 stockies on the dyno and check the curves.

The specs of the 08 seem slower than prefacelift. :lol:
