I'm not implying that EVO's can't match the STi's 2.5L... I'm just saying that a 500awhp EVO with a graph like that guy's is gonna get eaten alive on the track by a car that's got torque and a flatter power curve. Essentially, that EVO is good at one thing: putting down a huge peak power number on a dyno.
It's like being a sumo wrestler... sure those guys are impressive atheletes, but their skill is so specialized, it's not like they could play a soccer match, some tennis, and swim a mile, the way most other atheletes could. They'd get beat in any sport outside of the sumo ring.
