I've seen a couple dyno graphs of '16 and '17 STI on Cobb Accessport which also included downpipes. They put down 296WHP/360TQ and 300WHP/330TQ. A bone stock M2 puts down ~330/360. Sure, the STI will be quicker off the line but the M2 is an overall faster car. M2 traps 113 mph, STI traps 105. A stage 1 tune won't make it gain 8 mph through the traps.

on top of that a roll race would make it 10x worse. no chance in hell a tuned sti will beat a stock m2. add to that the m2 isnt built with quality of kinder surprise toy....ya m2 over sti any day.
