One thing to notice is that there is a very long break in on the WRX engine. For whatever reason, the car has absolutely no power below 3000 rpm off the lot. This anemic compared to the Viggen which has most of its torque at 2000rpm. However, after 5000-10000 miles, the WRX supposed to change. I can't say how much, but it's really supposed to spool up a lot quicker.
In short, to experience a new one properly, you have to redline it.
