Having blown my 2002 (V7) WRX engine up on the autobahn I'm looking at a new engine.

My current plan is to fit a forged 2.5 with AVCS heads, as I have a Spec C inlet on the car I have the wires from the tumblers 'spare' to run the AVCS using a Syvecs ECU (JGM).

I'm planning to get the long engine built by Williams Motorsport so I can drop it straight back in. Is there an easy way to make the engine run on my existing std wrx ECU (ECUTEK) effectively bypassing the AVCS so I can drive the car up to the rolling road to get the Syvecs fitted and mapped?

Also as it appears that the engine failure has contaminated the oil is there a good way to clean the turbo out (APS SR40) to make sure I don't get bad oil back in the engine.

 

Yes.
However with those planned changes it maybe better I come and install ecu and avcs wiring and we put a road map on it before coming to dyno for full mapping.
Maybe wise to get turbo stripped and checked by for example turbo dynamics.

Cheers Simon,

I'll be in touch once the Engines back in the car!
