2.5i heart trasplant

if you want 400tq, grab an ej255/257, toss on a bigger turbo, lots of mods, racegas, and fly

 

Check out www.google.com (A search engine) you'll shoot huge sticky wads once it answeres noob, or simple technical questions you have. I researched this 5 minutes and found multiple forums and knowledgeable write ups regarding your questions. Reading them will help give you a better understanding of what your asking, and you can include information that would help responders understand what you're referring to so they are able to give an input directly rather than questioning what you're trying to ask..

 

I still wanna know why you wanna hit 180 (mph I'm assuming)?

I was a n00b once too, but I still had common sense.

Most people who build up a car have a clear goal in mind before they start throwing parts on it. Drag race? Autox? Time attack? N/A or F/I? I've never heard anyone serious about building up a car just come up and ask how to reach 400wtq and 180 mph. Seriously. Why? If you were serious about such a build, you wouldn't have asked those things as very simple logic and a few simple random searches on google or whatever thousand subaru sites would have informed you that it would be very difficult and expensive to do it on a 2.5i.... and that there are much easier and cheaper ways to do it on a subaru. Then if you had asked AFTER you did that tiny amount of research, we would have been nicer about helping since your question would sound more realistic after the research.

We ragged on you because of this very reason. Being a n00b is one thing. But having common sense and the capacity to use some simple logic would go a long way towards earning respect in any community.

 

i would suggest to find a wrecked wrx or sti and go from there, or save your money and trade your car in on an sti (when you have enough) you wont get what you want out of a swapped GD chassis that began life as an n/a car.

 

educate yourself by SEARCHING the forums before you do any postings.

that will get you started, seach the hell out of those two forums, and come back and ask your questions

 

honestly, with how much you want out of the build for your 2.5i you are better off trading it in on a WRX. The cost alone to build that motor and toss boost at it will more than likely offset what you could be paying for a WRX instead. just something to think about, again, i apologize for coming off how i did earlier, but it made no sense to me.

 

A lot of people around here have bad grammar because they're lazy, some of them have bad grammar because english is their second language, and others because they're idots.

When you're new and people are trying get a feel for which one you are, it's usually assumed you're a retard. Sorry. Maybe if you typed out your post in word first and then copied it, that would help?

Until then, your grammar is going to be a point of judment for a lot of people (rightly or wrongly).

 

So you're going to swap the "DOHC" in, which is the WRX you found from the salvage.
GREAT START!!! Since you haven't put it in yet, put in new pistons, maybe rods. Port the heads, TGV's, swap injectors, get better clutch, bigger turbo, exhaust system to flow the turbo. Pretty much BUILD the motor to be able to handle the 400wtrq. Turboz have to be some FPGreen/GT30R+ size.

Since you're dropping this in, you DO realise that you have to do a harness swap?? This requires taking out the interior to some extent. Then you're set. Tuning will have to be OPEN ECU/CobbAP/ECUTek.....etc. Tranny will have to be a built one or a STi 6spd.

But what's this 180mph deal??

 

nobody cares how fast your car is top end, this isnt need for speed underground, however i dont think 400wtq is, given the right amount of knowledge, time and of course money, too far from reach.
if thats what you want man, I gaurantee everyone here will do everything in thier power to help you or guide you in the direction of the best help.

 

FYI, I've spent at least 9K on my '99 Impreza Wagon. This is engine, drivetrain, wheels/tires, suspension, more PARTS. Right now it's just a WRX swap w/ EJ22T shortblock running VF39 w/ supporting mods. This is only as fast as BPU STi's.

 

umm fyi im prolly not gonna be doing 180 with ne one so im not doing it for other ppl i just like to go fast

 

Well being subaru people as u are, I thought hey maybe they could help i didnt think that was a bad start. this is the begining of my start, and i was comming to mnsubaru cause ud be able to explain it better then a web page

 

:laugh::laugh: agreed,


oh wait i already said that :laugh:

 

Lulz-train!?! lol...I believe it is a one-way non-stop

 

Actually, feel free to stand on the 3rd rail.

Or is this a steam lol-comotive?

 

he wont, he didnt come to Firestone last night either, he needs to do some research first for sure.

 

ha ha flabio told me about that and i had this halrious picture in my head of what it would look like!

 

eaton fuller 10 speed semi truck transmission then you can go 180. but seriously i hope you have a lot of money cause i only made 320hp and 375torque and got alot into my car.

 

and you bought a 2.5i?

agh. just go buy something that already is fast since you clearly don't understand anything about what it takes to make a slow car fast.
