Default Engine problem

Hi there all
I'm looking for some help. I have an import Wrx turbo on an m plate and need to replace my engine as mine just blows steam everywhere. I was thinking of having it rebuilt but now think that it would be easier just to have it replaced.
So i'm now looking for some help to find somewhere that I can get an engine from,that has a good rep. Don't want to end up with another broken one.
I live in the Bognor regis area so if there is anyone knows of a loaclish place that would be great.

Thanks
Cakes

Not sure in your area but when this happened to me and I needed a new engine or re-build I went down the re-build route with API Impreza. Can't recommend them enough but it all depends on your budget. I'd give David a ring there though because he might be able to help you out or steer you towards someone who can. Goodluck

API for sure.

Or ZEN (I have a faultless engine built by them with forged internals)

But aren't you nearer Enginetuner in Devon?

All 3 are great, and well respected, Impreza specialists, whoever you go for...

There is RCM too, of course... but you do have to pay!!!

LOL sorry David - wasn't trying to do you out of potential business.

I went to Bognor as a nipper and have never really bothered finding out where it is and assumed it was near the south coast, as that is what it 'felt' like lol

There you go OP - API are your one-stop... Impreza shop.
