Anyone Know The Top Speed Of A Sti?

at max speed, power due to engine = power taken away due to drag
formula:
Drag = 1/2*Cd*p*A*V^2
where Cd = coefficient of drag, p = air density, A = vehicles frontal area, and V=vehicle velocity
Power = Force*Velocity=Drag*Velocity
P(hp) = 1/2*Cd*p*A*V^3
formula:
Drag = 1/2*Cd*p*A*V^2
where Cd = coefficient of drag, p = air density, A = vehicles frontal area, and V=vehicle velocity
Power = Force*Velocity=Drag*Velocity
P(hp) = 1/2*Cd*p*A*V^3

they are not so a rally car as they are rally inspired they have a rally inspired susension and such but supposidly the tranny is a 6 speed race inspired tranny which i am guessing they dont mean rally by that since they say rally and race like it means two different thigns? just a guess.

I am pretty sure the tranny is geared low. I have a friend with a STi and he said his first gear is somewhat useless. It revs out way to quick. They may have put higher gearing in it for highway driving though.
