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.

A Little Help Is Good...

Well there are all the aftermarket bars... Cusco, Whiteline, Perrin, etc. Different sizes, from adjustable 18-22mm bars, 20-24mm bars, and non adjustable ones too... Then there are the stock bars, like the WRX sedan swaybar, which is 20mm, and the wrx wagon which is 18mm. The TS you have has a stock 13mm swaybar in the rear, which is dinky to say the least... The cheapest options are the stock WRX bars, the 18-22mm adjustable bars are also good cause you can adjust them later, but usually cost around $150.

Sigh... I found out from other threads that my engine (BJ25) is completely useless to add a turbo (it cant withstand the turbo). Should I swap the BJ20T or BJ25T? And how much does the engine cost for each?

EJ, not BJ

A USDM WRX swap (EJ20T) will be about 3-4k for the motor and the goodies that go with it, and another 2-3k for installation. Depends on the situation of course, but it is doable.

The EJ25T, the WRX/Forester XT/New Legacy turbo (each in various tunes) hasnt had many swaps yet, but expect a bit more money for one as even finding one of those engines to install is rather difficult, while USDM WRX engines are showing up all over the place now...

Sry for the typo there (not good with keyboard). Are the USDM WRX egnine brand new from factory or used? If its used, how "used" is it? When I buy the engine, will it come with the stock turbo/TMIC or do i have to go get it myself?
