Pual @ Zen (with assistance from Mark @ Lateral) can build you a nice SCDB 2.5 or 2.2 for that money. What you need depends on your cars current spec though.

Or Chy @ Pennine Subaru can build you a Closed-deck 2.5 for a "little" more

As you say; It isn't the cost of the motor - it is all the kit to go with it, to make it work properly that adds up.

We can all build a proper 2.5 short motor with steel / forged internals for circa 2 grand. Although most quotes up to now, have been based around a dollar exchange rate of 2 : 1 [ ish ]

Today it is 1.62 : 1 a hike of about 19% which will make a material difference to the cost of the 2.5 short motors from now on.

Always; particularly as the final map was completed yesterday. It looks like David and Pat did me a favour ragging it like they did.
