this was the issue if ne1 has it. I have it, the comparison is between a XR6T Falcon, XR5 Focus and Subaru WRX (NOT STI) but then the Falcon ain't the Typhoon either.... XR6T 14.5 @ 164km/h Focus 15.5 @ 151 km/h WRX 14.6 @ 155 km/h Subaru is faster to 60 km/h at 2.9 sec Falcon 3.3 secs, Focus 4.0 secs 100 km/h Falcon 6.3 secs, Subaru 6.6secs, Focus 7.6 secs

 . Damn that lift. haha.Sounds good about the fuel too. I was afraid you guys had some insane octane ratings. I thought might have to mix our 93 with some 110 (115 your rating) to get the right mixture. That would have sucked. If anyone has a link with performance stats for the xr6 turbo that would be great. I'm having a hard time finding one. no need to mix it to lower the rating. just use the 110 in it. gives the chance to tune it a little harder aswell |

Good luck getting it over there and road legal.
For the amount it will cost you, you could probably buy a brand new GT500 Mustang, and I know which id rather have....

hi just got that copy of the mag and im sorry mate but that is a comparo between the xr-5, xr6-t and the WRX!! not STI!! The sti wouldve absolutely munched those two cars and it would not have been a fair contest!

either way, probably cheaper to run 11s with a turbo than an sti... and it's a much nicer car to drive around, just doesn't have the sports handling
