all the articles about the STI Limited say that it will have the same output as the normal STI. well, the normal STI is 300hp, 300lbft. the limited is 293hp, 290lbft, and the RPM numbers don't even match. that aside, the limited does look pretty bada$$.

the SAE rating system changed recently so make sure both numbers are by the same methodology

That is the reason. 2007's are measured by the new SAE standard, the numbers for the non-Limited you must be seeing are from 2006. Same engine & everything
