Engine/Power - non turbo (All non turbo Imprezas) Who needs a turbo when you have 2500cc? Cams, intakes, exhausts, etc. The 2.2L and 1.8L Subies are cool too.

Gonna turbo my 2.5i

FNG here. Just bought a 2006 Impreza 2.5i. It's pretty clean and has 100,000 miles on it, paid $3,000. So I do not mind spending a little money on it.

I've read literally a hundred threads all saying to swap motors, etc. however I do not feel that's necessary. I know a 10:1 CR with cast pistons + boost is not the best idea however I think 6 psi and good tuning will be fun and still somewhat reliable.

Getting married in a month so I have to wait until all that is paid for and done before I can start spending.

Plan on using the AVO kit, tuning and upgrading the fuel pump as well as the injectors.

All I ask is for recommendations for tuning. Who knows their stuff? That's IMO the most important part.

I'll update whenever I can.

Supercharger would prob be a better idea. Raptor makes kits for n/a Subarus

I'll be honest I had no idea supercharging these motors was an option.

More research to do I guess.
