Most of the parts being used in our Monster STi build are compatible with the WRX, and the block SHOULD be able to handle these kinds of numbers. However, you're slightly limited because of the 5MT in the WRX. Especially when put under extreme loads (track racing).

I wouldn't expect the WRX to be a track beast. However, I've driven the WRX a couple of times, and while the chassis is generally fairly responsive, I agree that there is still some slop. Would be nice to have a few small upgrades just for the commute and some..er...'spirited driving'. Such as some of the braces and stuff, I think.
