How does the 22B stack up against the STi of the same year?
22B '98
2.2L
289 hp / 6,200 rpm
281 ft-lb / 3,000 rpm
1,270 kg
456 pp
Top speed @ Suzuka: 135 mph
STi '98
2.0L
279 hp / 6,500 rpm
260 ft-lb / 4,000 rpm
1,270 kg
455 pp
Top speed @ Suzuka: 136 mph
The 22B carries 9.69 lbs/hp vs. the STi's 10.04 lbs/hp.
The 22B has 131 hp/L vs. the STi's 140 hp/L.
Thus, the 22B will be faster, but the STi's engine is more efficient.

2:24.483 - Subaru Impreza Sedan WRX STi Version V '98
Really not a huge difference. It's almost not worth owning a 22B over the standard STi, at least in real life.
Oh and both are standard cars. Some people want to see these cars disappear because they lack visual polish
