If they were both stock both m6... it would be a drivers race.

an STi is gonna fuck u over on the launch. Iv raced a few and its been the same result. This one kid knew how to fucking shift and put nearly 2 cars on me right at the launch. Them AWD turbos are good from a dig but after round 50/60 ur gonna catch him pretty good. In a 1/4 race id say drivers race with an edge to the LS1. Anymore than 1/4 ur gonna get him.

Like they said above, if both cars are bone stock, it will be a driver's race. Don't be discouraged when he jumps out in front off of the line....you should have the power up top to run him down in a quarter mile.

I raced both the sti and the wrx. I spanked the wrx. the sti jumped really good on me, but when I hit that second gear I pulled up to him and early 3rd gear I pulled a car on. short race. I really want to race another one.

My friend that used to own my car (2000 Camaro SS), ran a STI and on another occasion an SRT-4. Camaro was stock and so where the other to, actually I think that they may of had an aftermarket blow off, but anyways. He dusted them both... from a dead stop and on the interstate. Again I remind eveyone not to challenge the SS on the interstate unless you really have something fast.

I know the AWD works great with the turbos, but on underpowered cars it just makes them slower. but those STI's really are rice ROCKETS off the line. dang. I saw a little asian guy driving one and he had the whole interior gutted and it was all raced out, it looked kinda goofy but it was probably damn fast.

Only two 4 bangers have ever given me any trouble....SRT4 and WRX STI. Hard off the line but they dont stand a chance after second gear. Jerry01ss knows!! We've wasted a few.

what about Mitsubishi Evos? aren't they about the same as the STis?

My buddy has an 03 WRX and i have a 99 Z... its pretty even off the line seems how i have a 100 shot, 4:10's and the new E.T. Street slicks... buts hthe LS1 will always win on the top end.

I had some trouble with a integra with a turbo would have killed him from a 20 punch but he wanted to race on the highway. Still beat him but not by much. Integra had around 300hp with a bad ass tune.

Check out Motor Trend's last comparison where an STI pulled a 13.0 @103.5 against the EVO MR. Most I've seen run around 13.3 average. That's quick enough to give a 6-speed LS1 a run for the money in the 1/4 and will most likely beat an auto.
Stock from a roll at higher speeds the STi will get pulled.Last edited by garrettjj; 03-15-2007 at 03:04 PM.

ya, its hard to get an all wheel drive turbo car off the line!!! cause the sti's can set the power to the wheels at 40/50, 50/50, 60/40 percent wise on how much power the front and rear wheels get... its bad ass really
