That's because the Peugeot in STW had all the 'go quick' bits on it, the BTCC Peugeot never had full factory support (it had support from Peugeot UK but not Peugeot - so they weren't allowed all the good bits to stick on the car).
But as mentioned STW rode the Super Touring wave - lots of top line cars and drivers. After the collapse of DTM/ITC it was a good replacement, then the 'new' DTM replaced STW - and the quality of the drivers has always been good in DTM (there have been a few duds too of course). Now though there's nothing obvious to fill the DTM sized gap.
