I guess they are just jealous, But I make videos for everyone, not just VA and STI owners.

It’s a trend to hate

its opinions lol. for me , the plastic trim and rear end really ruins it for me

Oh wow didn't know that, thank you for the correction :)

subaru has never divulged the actual split of the AWD

It made 305 between 2015 to 2017 and 2018-2021 made 310 hp!

@@mouseclicksforu9724 that was crank HP not WHP.

I've owned a 2006 STi since 2008. They made roughly 230-240WHP on a dyno, stock. Mine is at 293/344 with a downpipe & tune.

@@hhaste around 300whp is more than enough, that’s where I want to be on mine. I think that’s a relatively safe number to be at

unless its a jb4🤔🤔

@@evoll- true that! Forgot about those

Ya seems stock boost. I am pushing 21-22 on e50. Even if its JB4 the dash gauge would show higher boost cuz ecu would think its not getting 13psi.

Yeah I am confused about this as well. My stock peak boost is 13.1. I thought a small tune would at least put it at like 15-16psi peak boost

VBs are dope! You can make great power for cheap, if you can find a leftover '23 you could probably pick up a new premium for around 28k. Good luck with the 9th gen, had one a few years ago, never did get around to boosting it though haha, should be a hoot!

@@carsnanime4719 oh definitely I was only looking at left over VBs already found a premium with 5k miles for 28 could probably haggle on that price. Yeah the 9th gen will take time but slowly and surely that’s kinda the reason why I’m looking for another car and nice awd 350whp wrx would be a fun daily

@@eduardomaldonado5793 For sure! You are just an intake and e30 tune away from that number with the VB 😜

You can do it bro!

@HesiDrift thank you i hope this year 🙏

what do you need to tune on e50?

@@ash2092013 ethanol to blend to 50% and a tune from a competent tuner.

@@ash2092013 You need access to ethanol to mix for 50% roughly and then a competent tuner to give you a tune.

It's a Remark 3.5 inch single wall axle back!

So apparently in the newer gen wrx’s the turbo is actually bigger then the last gen, hence why it makes less boost then the last gen. So he is right.

@@sambo_smesh4226 oh ok I see now

@@sambo_smesh4226 thanks bro

Mexico only!

@@HesiDrift no really ut has pa inspection I wanted to see if was close to me

Yes!

​@@HesiDrift I wouldn't drive on those Cobb OTS tunes for long. They aren't made for your exact car, so numbers will be off, which can blow the motor. Get a downpipe and a dyno tune.

Better then 8 😅

All stock ..2023 limited .. 13.3 psi achieved so far !

@@geraldboylan5635 go to canyons 14.3

The loudest on the Channel so Far!

Because I own one and I know how it drives, massive difference between the two.

It's a Remark 3.5 inch single wall axle back 💥

My 2022 WRX with the Aeroflow Dynamics axle back exhaust sounds the same and makes the same exact pops. I don't even have a tune and it pops exactly like that. The only "performance" mod I currently have is the axle back exhaust. So you can get these pops without a tune :)

I have a 16 focus rs with a light tune 22.5 psi on average and I'm barely scratching 305 to the wheel. Awd has a lot of driveline loss.

My vb wrx put down 253whp bone stock on a mainline dyno - most VBs put down power in that range - with an intake / turbo inlet / catback on 93 oct I'm at 320whp targeting 18-19psi

There's been proof that multiple stock VBs on dynos are putting down around 245-255whp. Multiple Dyno videos from big channels & others on the internet showing their bone stock dyno readings. All are 245-255whp. Yes, I know there is more loss with the AWD drivetrain, but it's a simple fact that a multiple stock VB WRXs are putting down around 250whp. So this means that the claimed "271hp" from factory is likely underrated for whatever reason. With the 20% AWD loss from crank, the stock VBs should be making right around 220whp. Interesting indeed that many reputable people are seeing 245whp - 255whp bone stock. This theoretically means that a typical bone stock VB is making 305-310hp at the crank.

For me personally, the VB handles way better around the corners than my STI does, It's just a matter of personal preference. Also, this one is tuned so hence the power difference from stock.

@@HesiDrift ok I thought you said everyone knows it or something about the handling. It may handle as better road car but definitely not as a performance car.

Sorry mate, but dyno numbers are just a number at the end of the day. It is a tuning tool, and it doesnt matter what number it baselines at, its about the curve and improvements from parts.. thats what a dynamometer is for. You can say "most accurate" etc thats totally relative.. Here in the states, a typical STI dynos for around 245-255whp without any mods, that could be due to many things, but fuel is the main constraint. We also have stringent environmental factors when it comes to cars in the US. Lastly, the VB platform is very under tuned from factory but still puts down around 245-260hp without any mods.. those are similar numbers which means that subaru underrated the car. That is much closer to 300 hp at the crank (when mulitplying by 1.2 which is standard correction for parasitic loss) which is where subaru releases info about. Now to speak to your nonsense about STI's, I have owned 3, still own my 05 sti, which is the best year we got in NA, and no, the previous generation STI's do not handle better than the VB out of the box, they under-steer more, and arent as balanced. The chassis stiffness from the VB platform makes it a much better handling car overall. As far as it being a better road car, this is also true, its just better technology all around when it comes to suspension and chassis stiffness. Where the VB loses to the STI is drivetrain. For example, the transmission, differentials and engine potential. The EJ has port injection vs the FA's direct injection (port injection being better for making big power). Other than that it comes down to chassis stiffness and suspension which as I said, has been improved with the VB. All of this info is readily available with a simple google search. The VA was better than its predecessor, but the GD is still better than the VA in terms of raw potential, is built better etc. You should stop stating "everyone knows" when in fact many VB owners are former VA STI owners (myself included, 15ISM, and 17GPB) and the VB has a better chassis. Enjoy your 19STI, and learn to appreciate that its ok, that the VB is good, it doesnt mean your VA STI is bad.

@@juanticimo I think the reviewers doing these amateur videos need to compare it with the old wrx not the higher performance model sti as it’s not in the same league anyway. It’s great you think vb is better but that’s not what the professional reviewers say and numbers are proof themselves of performance

Agree!

It just has short gears no hate. It pulls well but after 100 it slows down a lot

Redline is about low they should let it rev more 6000 redline is family car rev limit

I own an STI, I can personally say with my own preference that it does, especially around tight corners.

@@HesiDrift I've had 2 sti so

@@jdmteggy2388I’ve had 3

@@cjrick329 I've had 4

Hopefully having one on the channel soon 🙂

@@HesiDrift Looking forward to it 👍

i can confirm. I was also skeptical so I had a local mechanic stop by and validate. Good to go now you can continue on with your day my friend.
