Re: Subaru vs. 2g?

Someone correct me if i'm wrong, but i believe the older 08 model used ej20t motor with 2.0 displacement with a 13t turbo. The new one is a spin off of the ej25t that use to be in the STI's with either a 13t on it again, or something along the size of a 15 if i'm not mistaken. I know it's a different set up, so you can't swap from a 08-09 on the turbo's, but the basic set up is larger, more powerful. With the new 09 your getting a 2.5 STI motor from the old cars(08) with a less agressive tune from what i ran into when they were first coming out. Like i said, it's been a few months since i looked into it, but that's just off the top of my head.

If anyone can prove me wrong, please do.
