Default standard sti, does it put out the qouted 265 bhp?

just wondering as the PPP rarely reaches it's target, but my old classic was above std. bhp out of the box

at first i thought it was a fair bit under the power of my old classic (277/270) but now i'm not so sure, 3rd and 4th gears are killers and the car just bloody flies like my classic never did.

different power delivery so it's hard to tell.

who's had a std 05 sti (or 03/04 as it's the same for that matter) on the rollers and what's it put out?

Outputs will vary from car to car typically as do Rolling Roads themselves but if you look at PPP figures being around 10bhp short and assume they do make the 35bhp increase on factory outputs then the factory output itself is around 10bhp down on quoted.

I think so but judging by some posts some would believe it.
