Hah. Even with an unmodded STi, the choice is obvious, STi + Down payment on a house = Gallardo. Unless you are rich enough to not care about a 120,000+ difference... The choice is clear.

Impressive. Just goes to show that you don't need a big bank roll to get big performance.

The STi performance is awesome, but I would also take the Gallardo over the STi if I could afford it.

I watched it yet again and didn't see any signs of a FMIC on the STI! Maybe it's just me?

Could the STI be that fast on a stock intercooler?

I'm not that savvy on BOV but there was certainly one there...which leads me to believe the car was equipped with a TMIC!

according to the March Road and Track, the Gallardo runs 12.3 @ 117, and 0-60 in 4.0, $183,905. good video anyway!
