    Hi Everyone,

    I have a complete 2009 STi motor that is in great condition with everything needed to swap it into a car. This was pulled from a salvage car with only 14870 miles! Timing was checked and perfect, compression was all good and runs perfect(see video).

    The 2009 STi motor has the following advantages over older models:
    Dual AVCS (both exhaust and intake)
    Nitrided Crank
    Larger Rods
    Largest TMIC ever put on an STi
    VF48 turbo


    Cold compression numbers are great and within spec, were done totally cold with throttle body open. Battery was slightly dying so that likely contributed a bit to slight drop from cylinder 1 to cylinder 4(not cranking as fast).

    Cylinder 1:150
    Cylinder 3: 143
    Cylinder 2:143
    Cylinder 4:140

    There is absolutely zero shaft play on the turbo. The TMIC is in great condition, literally only a few bent fins.

    INCLUDED:
    Full 2009 STi engine with accessories and engine wiring harness
    TMIC
    VF48 turbo
    Exhaust Manifold/uppipe
    Catted Downpipe section
    Complete body harness(radio plug was cut off, not by me)
    Sti Gauge Cluster
    ECU
    Immobilizer Items(BIU, keys, transponder etc)
    Pedal Assembly
    Fuel Pump Assembly

    Missing items: MAF sensor, air pump(which I would just remove anyways)



    $5999 picked up OBO

    Feel free to ask any questions. I will get more photos of the motor assembly once I have it on the engine stand.

    Thanks!

    Ben

    I want to try and keep it as a complete swap for now, sorry. If it doesn't sell in quite a while I may consider parting things out.

    Yea you do! is the GF gonna buy it for you? Sounds like a keeper? ;)

    Wow! This is a really good deal for a full swap. Good luck with your sale. Someone needs to buy this and swap it into something cool, like an older legacy wagon.

    Bump!

    We basically have all the information figured out regarding this swap, so if anyone local is planning to do it I will assist in the technicals/troubleshooting. Or if you wanted to pay me to do it for you I can do that too. :)

    Thanks!

    Anything "fits" with the right skill. ;-) There is a guy with a 97 OBS wagon for sale on here that needs a swap IMO, lol.

    burtonboy00, unfortunately I only take dollars haha, if you can possibly sell your soul for the cost of the motor then we'll have a deal!

    The price is for the engine and other components listed. The tranny and rear diff are not included. I am willing to sell them for the right price. I can ship yes.

    I'll PM you. Thanks.
