152 in Evo, faster than the STi PPP, that can't be right.

there is very little in it straightline performance wise between sti and 03 ppp in fact ppp 03 has a tiny bit more torque so a higher top end might be on the cards its not the full story though as I'm sure those gold wheels will be much better at cornering LOL.

I have a piccy of my STi running 157MPH on the autobahn and it then went on to just over 160MPH ....Not sure what that eqates to with speedo looses etc. Oh and I dont have PPP. A zorst and induction kit I do have though.

Ive had my 03 WRX non PPP still pulling at 145 on the speedo, not sure what this would equate too allowing for any losses, so i would assume with the extra torque the PPP provides it would be over 150 at the very least, although i have seen it written at 148.

I havnt had MY03+ppp to the max yet but managed just under 130 down the back straight at Brands!
Wilsons quoted 155 once the engine loosens up properly at around 6000 miles.
I havnt had a safe opportunity to open up to the max yet :-(
Maybe time to go to Bedford Aerodrome or something similar :-)
