max safe power level sti ver 9 crank
Hi guys i'm building A 2.0 litre and wondered what is the safe power to run a sti version 9 tuftrided crank upto when fitted with a descent set off rods (arrow pauter etc ) and descent forged pistons (omega wiseco etc). Just wanted to know as i'm weighing up the pros and cons of a billet crank.
Cheers Liam

I'd need to be thinking of over 900bhp before I changed from the Std Subaru crank, its one of the very last things you need to upgrade.

It is a P1 engine and i have heard that the P1 pistons are descent forged items but the rods aren't great would it be o.k to re use the pistons if they are in good nick and upgrade to version 9 rods along with the crank ?
