You might want to reconsider that. :lol:


I've decided to give the big F-you to my VF37 and go bigger right away. If I can afford it, I'll go FP Black (They call it the 82HTA for Subaru's for some reason). I'm also considering a few PTE units. The shortblock is begging to be built, and I'm already planning on GSC S2's. So, I feel it would be a waste of engine not to. Tentatively, I'm thinking 98mm 8.5:1 JE's, and possibly Manley T/T rods.

Decisions, decisions..

dont cheap out on rods, manley t/t's are good for just about anything you can throw at them and priced fairly well, and as for pistons i would do cp pistons, you mind as well go rotated turbo setup too =) there are better options for a fp black sized turbo if you go rotated, and it makes working on the car SOOOOOOO much easier!!
P.S. i'll just leave this right here =)

I was thinking FP Black because I could run an OEM up-pipe and use my existing downpipe. But if I can work a good trade that rotated kit might be the way to go.

Bah, I know. lol Too bad you sold your 6-speed swap already!

I'll probably just upgrade to an '08+ 5-Speed. Those seem to hold higher power better than the older ones.
