Hello 
Don't be put off by how quiet it is. Always the same on sundays, plus everyone's in bed early to be ready for the Shootout tomorrow.
Sport is non-turbo.
WRX (00-02 bugeye/03+ blobeye) is entry level turbo (on cars since 00, prior to that WRX's were Jap imports)
WRX STi (7 bugeye/8 blobeye) is more powerful and focused turbo with many improvements to engine/drivetrain/steering/suspension over WRX.
STi is WRX STi
Turbo is the old shape Impreza, includes many specials (P1/22B/Catalunya/Terzo/RB5/McRae) and any WRX or STi's (up to 6)in this shape are Jap imports.
PPP can be added to WRX or WRX STi to improve performance, hence WRX PPP or STi PPP
