Sick results, and nice build. However, nothing can save that ugly rear bumper D:

Posting for Sharif:

So I got bored on Sunday and converted over to E85. Just did some quick adjustments of fueling to get me going, but OMG it's much more responsive on E85. I will be on the dyno this week with it again for the big stock block numbers. I really want to see 450-500whp on our Dyno Dynamics. I will definately have the video camera rolling for those pulls.

Also just heard from JRZ today that the suspension bits are back from the anodized which means assembly and shipping is just around the corner.

Are you guys worried about the stock block at all? Subaru doesn't have the best reputation for engines staying together, especially the new ones.

The stock block is pretty good with a good tune. Less then 500whp the better life it will have. We are going to be pushing the stock block until our stroker motor is completed.

Nice! How far do you plan on pushing the stock block?

Sorry for the lack of updates. We have been completely consumed with customer projects that the STi has been neglected. Here is a picture of our new FP Dual 3inch exhaust. This baby sounds killer!



Thanks for looking!
