    Bryan, did you figure out which direction your taking for the block build...like pistons and other internals?

    I'm going to start building a 2.5 block over the next few months and would like your discoveries/input, etc...

    btw- who is building your block? pm me if needed.

    thx!!!!


    EDIT- My goal is 350-375 whp with WRX heads. Probably 20g with meth. stock turbo location since that's the cheapest for now

    heck NO. I'm going to wait until my motor is broken in...then do 1 launch from 6K and listen for the explosion. :biggrin:

    Okay...Yes. Either 07 sti or ppg. I'll shop around and pick up the best deal at the time.
