I didn't say you were lying, but you could have raced a 2.0 wrx rep, your xe would never beat a wrx/sti.

depends on the year. They are not really geared to go 140 though and limited to 115 out of the factory.

LOL I'm guessing a early uk turbo or a delimited wrx that ran out of gears.

If its just a uk spec turbo they started life at 212bhp right through to 280bhp for the wrx sti and 312bhp for the type R iirc.

so a 200bhp impreza against a 150bhp corsa would be about level pegging if you take into account weight difference and drivetrain loss.

An older sti would muller you and a newer model like an rb320 would leave you for dust.

xe corsas are not supercar slayers, not even sports car slayers. Just failry quick hatches!

sadly you are wrong the uk turbos are geared for 140 unlike the Sti's
