The ratios on the STi 5mt are infinitely better. Altogether stronger as well because a slight increase in width of the gear teeth at their base and a higher final drive ratio. I love mine.

Careful though, kids have a tendancy to beat on transmissions.

It is a different final drive, you would need to swap out your rear diff to 4:11
