Is it worth going front mounted turbo in terms of gains and costs involved on a 35r? Mine isn't front mounted and seems to do the job.....

Sorry to hear about your mum.

Thanks Jag,really appreciated

About the going with front mount 35r,we are bought front mounted kit and we are love this idea

Agreed yours isn't front mount and you are making very nice numbers on yours

We will see,if its worth to go with Front mounted 35r,but hopefully yes is it worth

Little update:

Engine is built last week,just waiting on painting on black and later on Neil@Slowboy racing will send us pics

Yesterday we are been at Jap Performance parts and bought the JDM Spec C(S204) heads,after ringing almost everyone,we are bought them and they're in great condition(no cracks etc) and Neil has been happy with them like we are

Price for them has been OK and fair,wish we are contacted before about the bare heads as we don't need cams,valves etc.

Neil will start work on the heads this week and heads should be ready in couple of the days

Hopefully now everything will be without the problem,but with our luck not sure

Little update:


My brother has been in USA to buy few last bits for build and looking like we are have everything(just guys from No Limit Motorsport will send us OEM Engine Gasket Kit,they don't have this at stock,they're sold last one )

We are bought those bits:

TCK328RB(Gates Kevlar Timing belt kit)

Subaru OEM 11mm Oil pump

Cobb Oil Cap

KillerB Performance Oil Baffle / Windage Tray

NGK BKR8EIX(which should be OK,but still we will need get Racing 8's_

OEM Engine Gasket Kit(which should be sent to us this week)


Neil said everything should be put together this week or next week,after that on the side of the turbo kit,we will see what needs to be done or not,but hopefully everything will be without the problems

Quick update:

We are been today at Neil@Slowboy racing and we are speak about the project and progress,at this stage doesn't looking good

We would love to have fitted front mounted turbo setup,but looking like this will only prolong build and will be too expensive to fit,which means we are selling this kit and we are now deciding what will be best rotated setup with 30r/35r or simply stock location MDX321V/SC54/MDX555 and run 75-100hp NOS jet and AEM water methanol and with this stock location turbo we should make 600bhp

Plan is to have car build and enjoy,but looking like our wagon can be soonest on the road in April

Just wish we are never went with 2.35L build and we can enjoy our wagon
