hi i'm sure cars drive different to the fsti , all i'm saying was it's on boost at 2200 , i've found the boost works well
from 2200 upwards , my ver 7 sti jdm needs to be driven harder to try and even catch the fsti off the line which it could not as the mrs left me for dead , but may at higher speed over take but at the time it's got a lot of distance to catch up with , i like the fsti as better mpg 35 on a good run fully loaded , 27 average , enough grunt v reliability and a good boot size , so far a full sized bath sink and toilet in the back , horses for courses fsti drives well , a spec d v fsti there was nothing in it possibly fsti quicker off the line , boring if we had the same cars , i've not driven a twin-scroll so i don't know , the cost of them and being rarer put me off , fsti are at good prices now , i also found out tune and mod a car too much and mpg is not good , i wanted mine as a daily drive with a bit of fun ,i'm still tempted by the rs though lol
Curious, but were did you learn to put a space before a comma?from 2200 upwards , my ver 7 sti jdm needs to be driven harder to try and even catch the fsti off the line which it could not as the mrs left me for dead , but may at higher speed over take but at the time it's got a lot of distance to catch up with , i like the fsti as better mpg 35 on a good run fully loaded , 27 average , enough grunt v reliability and a good boot size , so far a full sized bath sink and toilet in the back , horses for courses fsti drives well , a spec d v fsti there was nothing in it possibly fsti quicker off the line , boring if we had the same cars , i've not driven a twin-scroll so i don't know , the cost of them and being rarer put me off , fsti are at good prices now , i also found out tune and mod a car too much and mpg is not good , i wanted mine as a daily drive with a bit of fun ,i'm still tempted by the rs though lol
Capitals and paragraphs would make for an easier read as well.
lol i did not know this would go to grammar correction , i'm dislexic a word i can not spell either and using an iphone to type has never been easy , i've never been good at grammar just better at cars , my neighbour has the old style cosi respect it for its time but never floated by boat again horses for courses

If you are going to pick someone up on their grammar, at least spell "where" correctly
And if you're going to pick someone up on missing a 4WD car, don't do it by posting a pic of a RWD car.
If you are going to pick someone up on that at least pick up the correct person. Durrrvxr2010 said:
copying subaru as in now using 4 wheel drive for better acceleration when they have normally said 2 wheel drive was fine
As per a later post - I was referring to Ford's use of the Fergyish 4x4 layout in the XR4x4 from the mid eighties and in the Sapphire Cosworth and then Escort Cosworth.It's much closer to the Subaru layout of today than the Focus is, less a bit of trick stuff in the centre on the sti.

The next engine wont be a 2.5 (thank god). it will be a 2 ltr again (twin scroll)
This engine is already used in Japan, the 2ltr FA engine which will replace the EJ20.
Isn't that the engine everyone (who doesn't have one) slags off in the BRZ/GT86?This engine is already used in Japan, the 2ltr FA engine which will replace the EJ20.
The FA engine in the Forester XT and BRZ is a 86mm x 86mm square engine. The 2 litre FB in the XV and Forester XE is a long stroke 84 x 90 engine, the FB engine has lighter pistons and con rods and is designed for lower power outputs with more focus on economy.
The Levorg has a 1.6 turbocharged FB engine.

Fair point, although that would be 'spelling', not 'grammar'. And when it is a correctly spelt word, just the wrong word. Inline spell checkers won't pick it up. As an English teacher, I can assure you that using an incorrect but closely related word (were for where, their for there, when for went) qualifies as a grammatical mistake.Having driven it yesterday, I take it back; the FSTi does pull hard from 2k - it's just I never do it as I'm aware it does the engine no favours.

my FSTI generates over 300 lb-ft of torque @ 2500rpm and 398 lb-ft of torque @ 3645rpm so not sure how anyone feels them as a bit flat?
