02TL-P vs WRX

OK, this was on Southerstate pkwy, you know what would have happened and yes that happened, WRX was the winner. But, in terms of handling the first time there was a lil problem with my TL. The Wrx had a better handling than me. We were swerving through traffic, although its kind of dangerous but i really wanted to see how far my TL handling can go. Not that satisfied with it now. Do you guys know how can i improve the handling for the TL.

You can start by getting a stiffer suspension set up. Generally, the stiffer the suspension, the better response. However, a stiff suspensions means that you're going to feel every little bump you go over.

then sways, weight reduction, better tires, wheels, etc.

It's kind of hard for the TL to match up to WRX's in terms of handling due to the sheer weight difference and also the wheel base length. You can probably achieve the same handling as a stock WRX, but the TL will no longer have that "smooth" ride you enjoy.
