Project Maddness: 2.5 Hybrid

Well not many know, but my engine went out. Rod bearing/ rod combo deal. Subaru won't fix it, so I guess it's up to me...
FLI will be doing the swap for me starting 1/4/06.
EQ Tuning will be bringing this beast to life.
parts list:
Crawford S2 2.5L block
Stock WRX heads
APR head studs
OEM head gaskets
Gruppe-s V2 ceramic coated manifold
PDE Flex Uppipe
TD06-18g Deadbolt turbo
15lb Wastegate actuator
34mm Flapper
APS catless 3" TBE
JDM STI TMIC
APS TMIC BOV
RC Engineering 750cc custom injectors
Walbro 255 Fuel pump
This should get interesting.... Stay tuned

Wow man, I'm surprised that happened seeing that you had an 05. I remember last year going up to Bear your car seemed to pull pretty dam nice for just uppipe+tbe and no tuning. Good luck getting your car back together, by that time it'll be running stronger than ever.

Damn Jeff, you really dont have any luck with Subies between this and the first one. Randomly wondering, why are you keeping the stock headgasket in there while everything else is being pulled apart?

How'd your engine blow with just those mods?

Anyways, I look forward to reading more about your new project...it sounds awesome.

Can we get lots of pics please?
