Well thats not very impressive. I know two people from a local forum putting down 495 and 520 awhp respectively on stock internalled STi's, with the proper support.

 

The key point is reliability on a race track.

 

That's fine for driving around and short pulls on the freeway, but they're pretty likely to bend a rod with extended track use. 500 chp is really pushing it for a 2.5l, especially if you're racing, due to cooling issues.

that block and those heads are MADE for a race car, you can rev the crap out of it with no problem and race all day on it. its not the whp that makes it good, its the fact that it wont grenade on you if you take it to the track for a day. way too much money though, jesus that thing is expensive. and IIRC the crank has a 84mm stroke...compared to the stock 79mm.
