Noticed a readers car in Total Impreza Magazine, stated Terzo with a 3.2 Litre engine (once in the description and again in the spec box).. I am assuming this is an error?

 

yes, bit of a misprint - Terzo 3.... 2 litre.

 

Unless someon gone and done my idea which is get a H6 and bore it and liner it so 93mm STi pistons will fit making it 3.2 litres: Thus dropping the CR down to something that can work well with a turbo.

Which nobody has the guts or the wallet to try....

or, it's a missprint

 

Talk is cheap Ali, you should lead by example..

 

I haven't even got a Impreza/legacy to put it in anymore

btw, I'd like to meet this miss print one day (thought I'd point that oopsy out first )

 

funny enuff a mate pointed out a terzo 3.2 in the classifieds today(south wales), told him it was a misprint, coinsidense?

 

Ever the pedant.

 

Tell you what: you build the 3.2 litre engine, get it running on the bench, and then I'll let you fit it to my car

 

Blimey... you can tell those that haven't been round here forever...... i believe that Pat Herborn was in the proces of fitting a 3 litre into an impreza.... i saw pics years ago.... there is nothing new!!!!

 

Some dutch bloke fitting a H6 but that was a standard asthmatic 3.0 n/a


But nobody in teh UK has tried lowering the compression on one so it can actually run some decent boost, be it turbo or supercharger. (well, ignoring the yanks - Perrin Impreza WRX H6 - Supercars.net ...no suprises there )

The only H6 I've seen that uses forced induction was one used in a light aircraft. But as it used stock compression ratios, all the s/c did was give it a few psi to compensate for the lower air pressure at high altitude.

 

Now, I did see Pat's WRX with an H6 in it sitting in SS one day but I don't know what happened to it. Know there was plans for all sorts of things...

 

He probably sat in it and the chassis snapped in half

 

Mental car, that engine looks like it was meant to be in there... where can I get one?

Must cost an arm and a leg to get a Trib engine second hand

 

Perrin WRX STI H6-Turbo - Brightcove

 

I want that one!

 

I believe Pat's car is still an ongoing project that may should see the light of day at some point

 

I remember seeing it at Scoobysport with the lump in it, so must be at least 4 years ago! Can't remember what it was V6 or V8 with I think plans for twin turbos???
