280 hp IS close to 300 hp for little money. That was my point. The extra 20 hp isn't worth the money. 280 hp is crazy cheap power. And even if I have to replace a transmission, I don't entirely mind, as I'd rather a strong 6-speed anyway. I just hope that I don't need to do it too immediate.

I appreciate the otherside of the story.

Edit: also, you can't get an STI in a wagon format (except the newest). So I'm happy regardless.
