    well hello fellow 92x - send a pm to J.rex...he's got a 2.5 block he's selling. Needs to be bored, but otherwise I think the condition is fine.

    Thanks, I'll look into that. Yeah, it blew the @$#@%$@^ up on Sunday coming back from a camping trip. Such is life I guess.

    Sounds like you're converting back to STX eligible huh? I haven't done any autox since M1 & 2 last year when we gridded next to each other.

    Aw damn, well I'm sure you'll like the 2.5...if mine blows some day, that's prob what I'll do.

    And yep, just a couple small things to change and hardly any lost power to go down to STX. Pretty pumped for this weekend - you gotta get yours back out when its fixed!

    So I'm going with a rebuilt 2.0L block, so I've got that, and I picked up a used turbo off of NASIOC.

    Looks like I'm just looking for an STI top mount, if anyone's got one they're looking to unload?

    Possibly an exhaust as well?

    Found a top mount. Just need to source an STI splitter and bellows. Anybody got one? Doesn't have to be in very good shape as I have to modify it to fit the Saab hoodscoop, just as long as its all there.
