V1 Wrx vs V1-2 Sti
Any one know any real difference between the engines and gearboxes between jap v1 wrx and jap v1-2 stis.
I think the sti are shorter ratio gearboxes and does the engine come with forged pistons.
All info is appreciated.

Sti V1's are a different kettle of fish to version 2's,
IIRC v1's run standard wrx running gear with a handbuild blueprinted forged (internals) engine, but on a 240ps ecu.
v2's have a forged engine but not blueprinted and balanced to the spec of a v1 but running a 260ps ecu and different running gear.
wrx's have wrx running gear and cast engines and 240ps ecu (saloon)
