and boost limited high compression motor are more of my selling points.
I prefer to think of motors as those that require boost to avoid getting killed by the neighbor kids moped and those that don't. Without a turbo the WRX is 0.5L down on power from the anemic 2.5RS.
As far as the tranny, well some are running over 300HP with stock tranny. And others have taken advantage of the services of one of the best box builders on the planet - the legendary Mr. Haines. Not to mention the fact that we can get the Quaife at 1/2 the usual price - which basically eliminates the main FWD problem on a road coarse. So, its not that bad a situation for us...
