This is were I got to tonight. Headstuds on and also got my oil pickup on. Everything finished getting torqued and now i start the waiting game for the heads to get back to me.

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

regular arp 2000s or 625+s? i don't have a closed deck. wasn't really an option when i started my build, but i do have an la sleeved block. I'm not to worried. as long as you aren't running 100mm pistons i wouldn't be to worried about cracking a cly wall.

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

Just regular arps for now. Ill go with 625s when i go closed deck. And im just going to stay under 30psi and i should be good and not crack anything if i keep the pressure down a little

How much HP do you think the car will be making with the new setup?

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

Im shooting for 550 and thats probably the most i will go with my open deck shortblock. When i go closed deck ill be pushing 700. Atleast thats my goal

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

Little update. Havnt been able to get much done on assembly but the rest of the parts will be on the way to be able to complete my engine once my heads get back to me. Then when taxes get back to me its rotated time. Whoooo

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

Update on a parts list got my timing kit, oem water pump, tomei timing belt guide, id2000s injectors. Also have on its way my clutch, flywheel and bov. Still waiting on heads but should be done soon. Oh and the pic is of the watr pump and some timing pulleys on.

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

What clutch?

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

ActXt 6 puck with a prolite flywheel

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

Figured that will work for now until i go twindisk

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

Should...6 speeds dont have no engagement issues...after all it aint a DSM. I thought about parting out my 1G to build my bug eye as well. I think reasonably though ill have to save up another season for the short block. Definitely staying around the 500whp mark when i do ...open decks are good up to 600 but then your a flirting with cylinder failure ect. Overall you think it was worth building yourself vs getting a stage 1 or 2 IAG block. Price vise i just think building is the better way.

Access port or open source? Why the cam's to rev a bit higher and flow more up top to help that 6266? What fuel rails you plan on going with? Stock intake manifold as well i assume?

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

I was dumb and should have just went with a iag closed deck. Thats what i will be doing next year. The cams yes to help rev and you gotta have a nice sound lol. Accessport. Ill be running perrin fuel rails. Stock intake

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

Little update got a couple more goodies. Id2000s, tial bov, act prolight flywheel. My act 6 puck is on its way. Heads should be done on the 26th. Getting closer and closer each week

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

Ets front mount is ordered along with some engine and trans mounts. Heads should be getting back to me later this week. Also got a new wheels setup that is way cleaner looking.

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

Big step in the build yesturday finally got my heads back on got them torqued tobthe shortblock. Really excited about this and giving me more motivation to get this thing done. Running gsc guts with gsc s2 cams.

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

My front mount arrived today and what can i say ets has an amazing product it fits and looks great. And yes its purple now before you start cracking jokes there is a reasoning behind it to being purple.

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

So what is the reasoning?

Re: 2011 Sti Build ?
 

it's a Subaru thing, we wouldn't understand
