Nah, I say UTEC, flywheel, and clutch. The FMIC wont make his 1/4 mile times drop any.

lookin for a bit more lag are we?

instead you could try these:

Upgrade the heads and cams to get your base airflow numbers higher. This will help out with your future turbo upgrades and turbo lag.

Extrude hone your intake and get a bigger TB.

Add a huge air/water intercooler with some water wetter, CO2 sprayer and a huge fan.

Twin turbos (parallel GT15's or equivalent)

blueprint and balanced rotating assembly.


You know they make EJ20 Twin turbo setups direct from subaru- 280HP stock.

are you on crack?? do you realize the cost difference of what he posted to what you posted? not that those are bad mods or anything, but .......


and a front mount doesn't add that much lag, it is totally acceptable and worth the gains.

no, I just figured since he has endless funding for his car that these would make sense. Besides, these are that expensive.

Upgrade the heads and cams($4300) to get your base airflow numbers higher. This will help out with your future turbo upgrades and turbo lag.

Extrude hone your intake ($500) and get a bigger TB($250).

Add a huge air/water intercooler($1500 same as the front mount but less intake plumbing and more stable temps) with some water wetter($50), CO2 sprayer ($250)and a huge fan($150).

Twin turbos (parallel GT15's or bigger) ($4500)- okay that's a bit steep, but imagine being the only guy around with 500HP(400HP with GT15's) and twin turbos!

blueprint and balanced rotating assembly($500-2000 depending on whether or not you keep the stock internals).

COBB's shortblock is $4300 and it's bored and stroked to 2.2L.
Hmmmmm.... there's no replacement for displacement.

of course you could always go with the stage 3
Successfully tested to withstand over 600HP and 2 bar (~30psi) of boost pressure.

dude, he doesn't have that kind of endless funding, .... well, not unless he's gonna be a man ***** in Thailand

and your prices are definitely on the low side by the way, then figure in what it would cost to ship that sh*t.

and you make it seem as if the twin turbo setup is a cinch, that is Definitely a lot of work. This Is his wife's car, remember?
