If nightwalker's going to be modding the hell out the the suspension, there's basically no difference between the EVO and the STi's (or even the WRX's) suspension. Coilovers and swaybars pretty much bring all 3 to the same level. EVO's got a bit of a quicker steering rack, but that's not necessarily a huge deal since the STi's is close.

Also, an STi and EVO both on stock turbos, with engine management and exhaust is also a toss up power-wise... the EVO will probably have the advantage in the 1/4 mile, but the low-end torque of the STi will make it more responsive and more fun in "realistic" driving situations.
