Welcome to the BBS.

If you've got the time, knowledge, patience, and money to swap in the STi engine, it should be a pretty killer setup. Some things to note are you will likely have to rewire the entire car to some extent. Also the ECU location is different, and there are additional sensors for the STi.

Other things to keep in mind is the drivetrain. The stock drivetrain will only likely hold up for so long.
