The ST in England/Ireland is completly different than the one we have here in the US. Our ST is pretty much just a body kit, with a little better suspension and a little bit of an upgrade on the motor. IIRC, the ST overseas is more powerful than the SVT we had in the US?

Si =
2.0L I-4 11:1 compression, have fun with a turbo on that! 
197 hp @ 7,800rpm
139 lb/ft @ 6,200rpm
0-60 in 6.7 seconds
22/31 MPG
ST =
2.5L I-5 Turbo
223 hp @ 6000rpm
236 lb/ft @ 1,600-4,000rpm
0-60 in 6.5 seconds
20.5/41.5mph (British measurements)
I think the ST wins bro! If all else equal, the ST's useable torque wins...

Probly, at anything under 6000 RPM! 
That's why I said the ST has useable torque... I don't about Infuryum, but I don't drive at 6000+ in every gear!
