well the USDM STi has the ej25det, a 2.5 litre w/ 300hp (claimed). the same model in Japan is still the famed ej20det, 2.0 flat four turbo making somewhere around 270 hp. im assuming that link and stats are for the JDM version because nobody around here measures power in ps.
i would still take the STi though
