evo is the winner for sure if we are considering prodection models, if rally versions are considered that i dout evo. the main reason behind is that the is a lot difference between a production and rally sti as compares to evo.
evo 8 had 5 models (mr 260, mrfq 320, mrfq 340, mrfq 380, mrfq 480) having hp range from 261 upto 405 for the top of the line mrfq 480. i dont know abt the hp rating of sti but i am sure for this that evo has more power.
the only thing i like abt the sti is its sound

The FQ versions are after market creations by Mitsubishi UK and are available as options from your dealer for extra dough. The factory Mitsu evo produces aroubd about 286hp from the factory depending on which market it is headed for. The same goes for the STI which was offered as Subaru STi UK Type 300 as an extra option for uk market but for the 06 year it has become standard feature in most markets.

Modern-Day Muscle Cars?
The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution and Subaru Impreza WRX STi are perfect examples of this segment stretching. These could almost be called modern-day muscle cars. Muscle cars used to be standard vehicles but with higher-performance engines and parts. Both these Japanese models are high-performance versions of small, economical sedans, but they are also based on rally racing cars.

The newest version of the Lancer Evolution, the MR, features Bilstein shocks, a 6-speed close-ratio manual transmission, an aluminum roof, lightweight forged aluminum BBS wheels, and vortex generator vanes to reduce drag at the rear edge of the roof. Under the hood lurks a turbocharged 276-horsepower engine driving all four wheels. The STi also features full-time all-wheel drive, and gets 300 horsepower out of its turbocharged engine.
