Hell.....230awhp with a decent spool up time will stomp most other cars on the road. 300awhp in our cars is just retarded fast

OMG I'm so bad. I forgot about this thread. I really need to finish it

not unless you want to use JB weld lmao

I saw something online where someone filled their open deck with JB weld to make it closed deck. Someone should do that and report back with their experience. lol jk

I don't think that engine lasted very long with that kind of boost.... However, the EJ20R and EJ20K are fully open deck like the EJ25D....they just have stronger internals.....so idk. I'm kind of tempted to do a monster EJ25D turbo build. I wonder what I could come up with. I don't doubt you can build one to do a couple of dyno pulls with big numbers.....what I'm curious about is how long the engine will last before blowing up

You could just get an EJ205, EJ207, EJ20G, EJ206, EJ208, EJ20K, EJ20R, EJ22G, EJ255, or EJ257 and boost it in its stock form for less money then it would take to build your EJ25D to handle boost. I don't know first hand what kind of internal failures the EJ25D will have when boosted. I would think you're able to run a little bit of boost on it with a small turbo and be somewhat safe...but anything fun I would think would require building up the internals quite a bit. I'm not nearly motivated enough to fish through that entire thread...but I have a feeling that engine didn't last very long at 28psi.

Where are you going to?

Can we add this to the list http://www.ufwda.org/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=33

running no exhaust is LOUD on our cars. I've done it lol

I would just live with the rattle. the heat shield is there for a reason.

I organize some runs every now and then, but its going to be awhile before I do another one

Get the HKS and then just modify it accordingly (if you even need to at all) for your turbo setup.

I think thats the best thing to do. I would just live with your stock exhaust until you do your swap. That way you have more money to put towards your swap. Start gathering parts now....its less financially devastating to spread it over a long period of time rather then buying everything at once.

I'm not sure how much basic maintenance they do. I've known them more to do major work, So I don't think a clutch is something they are not use to

Its a little bit of a deeper tone. The volume of it isn't much different though

Like I said before, I've never heard anything negative about them. I'm pretty involved with the local Subaru crowd....most everyone I know has had their car at AllPro at one time or another.....and never once have I heard or seen anything wrong with what they did. Like you said, mistakes can be made. Everyone is only human. If I were in your shoes, I would give them a second chance. They usually bend over backwards to make their customers happy. Try them out again with something simple like an oil change or something... What kind of major work do you have coming up?

Now that you mention it...that is pretty freaking funny

It says "Paddle faster I hear banjos"

huh? Actually let me make a correction.....It actually has about 1/8th John power, because I have a slipped disk in my back

It currently has 1 John power http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v287/broknindarkagain/95LegacySTI/johnpower.jpg

Whatever floats your boat haha

What kind of work? You're not a man whore are you? tsst tsst tsst lol

My sedan has hit the 300+mark on a GT3076R turbo...but it was such a big turbo it took FOREVER to spool up....but when it spooled it threw you back in your seat pretty hard. It will be hard to keep reasonable spool times on an EJ20 and get 350+ to the wheels. However, its not a very hard task to do on a EJ257. To give you a serious answer to your question, my favorite thing is mountain runs...so I really need the low end power. On the highway, almost nothing can touch me....and the only thing that saves me in the corners is the suspension

A little more then showing ricers on the highway who is boss lol.

For a DD with a bit of fun, an EJ20 would do you just fine. I'm just not happy with the low end output of an EJ20...but then again you and I probably use our cars for different things
