Hi, i'm in the middle of deciding whether to go 2.1 or stay 2.0 cdb. After reading a few threads on here, alot of people on here seem to have gone for a rotated setup.

My question is, could some possibly explain to me what is involved in going rotated?

Thanks

Mike

 

What power are you going for ?

I'd go 2.1 btw, just have myself and it makes a big difference

 

Nothing massive would like to keep a bit of reliabilty. Anything over 450bhp i'd be happy with or am i being a bit ambious

Mike

 

no need for a rotated setup at that level

 

Im on a 2.1 cdb with a standard fitment MD321X and it produced 503bhp 470lbs/ft

You dont need the expense for 450bhp mate, a MD321T will get you that with standard fitment

 

Get a billet md321v and your covered for loads of power.

 

thanks for the replies. Anger what heads are you running?

 

Newage STi ones

 

AVCS?

 

yes mate

What subaru are you modding

 

its a classic uk wagon, shell is in good condition. No rust and all straight.
Just the engine is getting a little tired at about 104k. I know i'll need a six speed etc, but i have also being looking into how much work work be required to run AVCS heads?

Mike

 

i ran STi6 heads on my old RA with a 2 litre Newage block and MD321T

It made 457bhp 410 lbs/ft

 

Thats not bad, i am liking the idea of the the 2.1 as i read they are slighly more revvy and a lot better to drive on track. I don't know whether this is true as i haven't driven one.

 

I just changed from a 2.5 to 2.1 and i prefer the 2.1 by far

 

Would be my choice also

 

I also went for the 2.1 over a 2.0.

Im glad i did,the power comes in nice and early and the 2.1 will produce more torque.

For the little bit extra it costs its worth it.

 

i have a sc46 on a 2.1 and run 450/450
