First things first, a comprehensive battery of engine modifications has liberated more power and torque from the car's 2.5-liter horizontally-opposed four-cylinder engine. Cosworth is claiming 395 horsepower and 398 pound-feet of torque (versus 305 hp and 290 lb-ft for a U.S.-spec STI). This will reportedly translate to a sub-3.7-second 0-to-60-mph time -- provided the driver is willing to absolutely abuse the clutch, of course.
