Over the last few weeks I have been helping a mate build a 2.5 ltr turbo subaru motor
Block , rods & studs came out of the usa
Heads are late wrx with mild porting
ecu power FC
some big ass turbo , running 20psi
massive injectors STI
The motor was in a Aussi RS liberty 4x4
ran it tonight with 5 psi & I was trully impressed with the low down grunt
a week of running in then add 15 psi
Then back into building my monster motor for the bug
18psi should get me 223kw at the wheels
God I love boxer motors
Looking for that special lady : PM me for coffee & cake
don't worry about the power figure, just imagine what the torque is gonna be like. 😉
Hey N,
Weld some wings on it when you're done...it might actually fly with eh?!
I've been given a few days off Christmas break...will pop down for a visit.

Hey Humpty.

Hey Andy..... Hows it all with you?.... How was the surf the otherday after the storms???? And that would be a no on the bus.... But work has started again.... Last year was an expensive year for me and on top of it all, I didn't have time with post-grad study, but this year, Im back in the work-force (high school teacher!), and the projects started to move again.... I actually re-wired the tail lights and license plate lights yesterday... And I ordered some bits from the US too.... So things have started to progress once more..... And we must not forget the other projects..... Neil wants me to stick a turbo on the EJ25 in my Notch.... I was looking at EATON supercharger instead.... But I really want to get into that turbo stroker for my ragtop..... Lots of fun for me this year!
