I'm not a fool to challenge an STI in a mountain, thats suicide. So I waiting till we got down to the straight roads. I follow him after a left turn and we line up next to each other, time to show him the GTO's good side. We both give the thumbs up and he floors it. Man that was the loudest STI I have ever heard with some MASSIVE backfiring. Also a very loud BOV. We got to the next light and I asked him whats mods hes got... He clearly said " Nothing, its just a stage 3 STI , nice GTO!" I said thanks same to you but I was confused. So the light turns green and Just to say I'm not great at taking off from a dig yet. He jumped on me but once I hit second we were neck to neck. I just started pulling on him by a little over a tire literally, then a car got in his way so he had to slow down. So we just played the Catch game a bit after that until he turned away. Ive ran my friends evo on a 10 mph roll, but this thing was nuts I actually felt like I was going to lose when we were next to each other... anyone know much about this stage 3 STI's?

A close friend has a stage 3 STI. Cobb Engineering out of Salt Lake, Utah has a four stage modification system for Subies. The third stage includes a larger turbo, additional tuning, modified exhaust and some other secret goodies that he will not talk about what else. It is faster than snot! I have a hard time keeping up with him in the 1/4, but after that, I start gaining.
