The spec b is a turbo motor which has very little in common with a 2.5i. It also has the timing belt not a chain like yours has. So for Asegal17 there is a lot of PM work she can do on her car. Good choice going with a built block!

thanks! sorry if we went off topic a little. i just like people to know what they might get in to lol

How many miles on your engine? Are there any additional components you plan to proactively replace while the engine is pulled, to save on the labor of future replacements/failures?

Do you think I should do the replacement on mine now, at 68K miles, or wait until 90K miles?

I have 67.5k on my car. I'm replacing the block with a IAG Stage 1 'staged Block' (I can post the specs if you need). I'm also machining the heads.

I'm checking on the life of the clutch and I'm putting in an Air-Oil separator to prevent future failure. Also the new internals being put in it will help prevent one as well.

In my opinion, I'd do a compression and leakdown test to find out the strength of your engine, along with a Oil analysis from Blackstone Labs to see how much metal is in your oil.

Once you get the results from that (mechanics and the lab will tell you what you're looking for), I'd make a decision from there.

But above all else, I'd start saving for a rebuild asap. Mine is costing $6-7,000 but luckily my warranty is covering a lot of it.

So once you get those test results, go from there.

I'm happy to answer any other questions as well

I've seen a dark grey 07 spec B around Montclair nj for a while now. Anyone know it?

The numbers for 08-09 spec.B are sketchy at best. If you are talking about 09 QSM cars in general I still don't have any good data for you.

yeah i am talking about 09 QSM. if you ever have and info id love it if you could pass it along. im just curious
