Where to get a 2.5 STI engine?
Hi all 
I posted a thread on another subaru forum but turns out it was american
so not much use since im in the Uk.
Anyways im after a 10 second quater mile. Big ask i know but im going to try and reach it even if i takes me a year or so.
Heres what ive been reccomended to get.
Forged 2.5 STI Block, rotated gt35r, TBE, FMIC, Intake, 1200cc injectors, 255lph pump, fuel rails, clutch, Cobb AP, and a e85 tune.
To start with i need the block, i can source everything else but anyone know a place in the UK - im in fife scotland - that can get this and how much it should cost. Would prefer brand new since im a snobb.
Thanks

YEA I know it won't be cheap but I'm looking to do this over a period of time.
I can source all the other parts it's just the 2.5 engine I'm needing to source and I'm looking for a hand.

Budget is what ever that is needed to achieve me goal. Dunfermline fife.
So what would the best engine be to get 2.1,2.3,2.5? For a 10 second quater mile.
How much should the engine cost?

Cobb AP is a no go in this country, don't think it suports any of the UK/JDM ECU's. Also, your closest E85 pump is in Dundee, might be an issue.
