^It will get about 22mpg HWY so its not that bad. And the wrx.2.0 heads are better then the sti heads, they flow better and it also bumps my compression down that way I can rum more boost 
and that makes me happy.
and that makes me happy.
damn sounds like a really sick build!
OH and yeah the fujitsubo exhaust is wonderful I loved the one I use to have on my car I was never hasseled by any cops when I had my car.

Cause it will take me forever to break in the new engine, I drive like 5 miles a day. I also can save money so I can buy the gt35 and the toys that go with it!

I haven't liked much of what I've seen with the 2.5/2.0 combo.
I like the JDM heads but I'd prefer going 2.5/2.5 myself. But that's just me. You going to sleeve it? Cams make such a big difference. Wish I could run a set. I had a custom cam in my civic and it was awesome.
Good luck with the build. Looking forward to seeing the numbers.

I hope you're planning on running some kind of high octane then - Big turbos need high octane or meth/alky injection to make the power they're capable of....if you only plan on running pump 91 I would recommend a turbo thats a bit smaller/less laggy. Good luck with the build.

^ thanks man I am well aware about the power my car will make on just 91 with the gt35. I will also be doing a c16 race map with really high boost, but I think I will be fine for every day driving with 420whp lol.
