Default The Legacy, and put the STI bits on it when some STI owner upgrades.

I keep asking myself why i got a TSX instead of a Legacy GT 2.5 as a daily driver...

Heck if you want to wuss out and stay stock, then a 3" exhaust and chip are netting serious power benefits, you will be looking at 300hp+.

Avoid the B5 S4. It is the combination of slow, problematic, and poor handling unless you pump several K into it, and none of that really addresses point 3.

Cheers,
Sameer
