Comparing flywheel HP makes no sense. The AWD of the Subaru loses much more of that HP then does the 2wd Mustang. Subaru has made very dependable mild HP 2.5 litre motorsm but the newer high HP engines have yet to be proven over the years. Fords V6 and V8 engines make a much more reliable and long lived block. Only time will tell. I have a friend who owns a 600 hp to the rear wheels mustang and a 280 crankshft HP 2.5 rs turbo. The Ford is far more reliable and steady. I must say I am a fan of both cars. His best times in the Mustang around Sears Point are not bested by the Subaru.
