is it an sti 2.5 or wrx?

it wont be a straight fit as the hawkeye engine has avcs even on the wrx, and your 2001 didn't, so you'll need a different ecu and the additional avcs wiring as a starter.

Yes it'll fit, I have a 2.5 with AVCS running in my 2002 bugeye, is the 2.5 hawk a WRX or STI?

You will need to swap the wiring loom for the bugeye loom and then add wiring for the AVCS, the usual solution is to do a tumbler delete mod and use the redundant wiring.

If the hawk was DBW you'll also need to use the bugeye manifold and throttle body.

The biggest expense will be the ECU swap, I'm running Syvecs but I believe Alcatec can run it as well.

Anything else you want to know?

its a wrx and i still have the full engine ecu keys full loom sat on the hawk eye how much of the loom will need to be changed and will the engine sit onto the 2001 engine mounts and marry up to the 2001 gearbox tnx guys
