Stock it WILL go mid 13's...........mild upgrades, 12 are easily attainable............same goes for an EVO from Mitsubishi.

BTW, all this, is assuming you meant the WRX Sti, and not a plain jane WRX............that is a low to mid 14 second car.

Boy are you in for a rude awakening ... HP to WEIGHT

Not to mention HANDLING

Yeh, get back to us and let us know the outcome,ok?

I saw a new STI at the track a few weeks ago. He couldn't better a 13.7xx. It was extreamly hot and humid and everyone was running alittle off. My best was 12.7xx. I could see one running mid to low 13's with good air, and someone who is not afriad to launch the thing at 7000 rpm.
