Question

Hello all.
Just a quick question about the STI VII, I know that the car has had a lot of improvements(looks??!!) as a whole but the drive train and engine has been moved over with out much change!! does that mean it still will have the same problems with them ie. the no.3!!??
this is the only thing that is stopping me from buying one!!( bad experience with the old units!! )

thanks for any help!!

One thing that is different is that the latest ECU retards cylinder 3 ignition, so that this cylinder runs cooler and safer.

hi pete,
cooler and safer up to what point? is that when reving up to the limit(8000rpm) when changing up gears? my engines(2!! ) seems to go when it comes near the max speed (155)!! will that be the same for the STI VII??
