Torque increase of the 2.5 over the 2.0 plays a big part in the driveability and usable powerband. Plus bigger is better LOL The JDM STI's 2.0 has a twinscroll turbo so it is able to make simillar power to US 2.5 STI's..... I wish we had twinscrolls state side (grr)

 

Yeah the torque of the 2.5 would help a lot in autocross and just general hooning.

 

my car is throwing a CEL and flashing cruise control again -.-. Thankfully i was already in marina though lol

 

What did you do now? lol

 

idk right when i hit marina, i saw it.

 

Get your AP out and check the code. I wonder what it could be.

 

at least you arent these guys.
dont know what exactly happened but they definetly blew the engine. can hear the knocking
2011 Subaru Sti getting blown up. - YouTube

 

Wow I don't know how these guys can laugh after all that I remember when I blew my motor worse feeling in the world !!!

 

welcome to the club justin.. luis and i have the same problem.. p0031 is what we have.. its the front o2 sensor..

 

Did you jump on that EJ255 deal Paul had going?

My quote was MUCH higher than what you paid. LOL! Think I'll be going 2.5 and then I'll build my 2.0 up myself over time and maybe plop it in a sand rail.

 

does anyone have a tool to test for a boost leak? i cant be sure i have one but i just got that feeling in my gut haha. Any local shops that are reliable? I know there arnt any subaru specialists around here but this doesnt seem like an issue I would need one for.

 

i think you just plug in a compressor with low psi, and if there is a boost leak youll hear it

 

Forecast stills says rain possible on Saturday and sunny on Sunday... I'll keep my eye on it threw the week.
