Ian,
Considering a Type "C" T25
but would there be much difference between "C" with the original higher rev range 2.0L and the more torquey 2.5L engine?

Tony,
Wouldn't ask me mate, I know nothing about cars. I will say this though, the Type 25 is the first scoob I've said I would actually buy, if I had the money.
Have a word with Litcho as he is intimate with both and will tell you how it is, you have to remember he is an enthusiast first, car salesman second.
Cheers
Ian

Who was it?
Great nerve to not bottle it as it heads towards (and then onto) the grass!!
Cheers Ian!
Weigh up the power band flexibility based on RPM limit and capacity.
By my estimations you would need a 2.2 revving to about 8000 to match the flexibility of a 2.5 revving to 7000.

I need to pester Iain tomorrow anyway, so I'll check with him then.
I have a brochure for the MY05 JDM STI in front of me right now, though, and although my Japanese is a bit rusty, I don't see anything about new or modified intercoolers. There are, however, little diagrams showing the G sensor, new LSD, exhaust headers, EBD, underbody aero improvements and a few other bits & bobs I don't even recognise.

That's why I need to pester Iain - it was supposed to be going on the boat on Friday. I'm not too bothered if it's late, though, since I'm not supposed to collect it until Sept 1st so I can get a '54' plate.

From the start line at the scoobyshootout my power was down to around 330bhp because of the retarding from the ecu but believe me if it wasnt backing down so much there would be a whole lot in it compared with your sti in fact it wouldnt even get a look in
