The big catch is that it's either an STi Scott has to buy, which is out of his desired budget even before cage and all that crap, or a further jaunt into FrankenSuby land with his WRX. He either has to drop $30k+ to build a race-competitive STi or take his WRX to ITE where he will never catch up, not without high 5 figures from where he already is with that car. It's also not going to be a light car. For a given power/weight ratio, lighter and less power is generally better. Tires, brakes, fuel, oil, all that stuff costs less to run an event.
But back to the original point, a 350whp STi-powered car is generally not going to be as reliable and long-lasting as a 350+whp LSx.
p.s. Scott, feel free to not swallow these words I'm putting in your mouth.
