GSL-SET Vs Subaru STi?
I would've figured the subaru to keep up a little better than that. Although 400 hp in a 2500 pound car is nuts!

you know something....when I first purchased my 7 and used the g-tech on it: best run was 18.2@76 mph: I thought that was fine for what it was..then I read up on what GSL-SE's should do and said wtf? so I tuned it up and changed all the fluids..basically got involved in my 7...went out again...17.5@84mph better but not impressive at all..however I am at high altitude and all the cars I have used the G-Tech on won't run the numbers mags and folks claim up here..I realize my 7 is quite old and tired 140+k miles and noisy tranny, but she feels faster and more responsive than the 82 12A I used to own..that car was tired too lol.
Seeing all these posts about the turboed 7's and N/A slightly modded 7's gives me hope..the car is light stock and the rotary has tons of potential..potential that can be reached with less money than most comparable piston powered cars..to a certain degree...
I HAVE PLANS........

plus a super outrageous beefy rear end that will take all the abuse he can dish out 
his car is what i would say... equal to that of a beast FC in terms of power to weight. altho...much more capable of handling the power and oh so so so SO MUCH COOLER!!!!!!!!

Then, you'd be...
Besides, I am thinking of an upgrade myself...
Maybe skip the 500rwhp club altogether, and go for the 600rwhp club..
