I like the idea of fitting a turbo to the front engine and not being too concerned about fitting one to the rear engine, Nicely balanced car.

Perhaps he was thinking it would cure understeer.

Ask Mike about the one that went in FastMikes car before he bought it, not in a million years ! By the time it's been cleaned you will just about break even, although with additional stress veins !
Exactly correct.

I thought the 95 WRX/STI engines were interchangable same year same JDM, turbo etc. Be worth asking if Graham could hear it with you ? only in chelmsford. Could be a cost effective swap even as a temp reprieve.

Hey guys, ive also blown up my scoob, im pretty sure its number 4 piston meltdown?! grrrr, ive not had it long and although ive been racing cars for years and grew up in a garage ive not had many dealings with the scoob gang, mine is a 1999 classic wagon 2.0 turbo ej20 type engine, it has the ppp pack on it although i guess it makes no difference to the engine itself, the guy i bought if from has fitted a td05 18g and a pace top mounted intercooler, What should i do??? i love the car and would like to get it sorted, who should i use for a good second hand engine or a good slightly modded re-con???
Any contacts or help would be greatly recieved?!
Thanks guys.
