As above, full STI long engine with v5 STI heads, brand new 11mm oil pump, Cosworth gaskets , ARP 11mm head Studs, sump etc all that is required to plug and play . Was running 490 BHP and has the potential for 530-550 if you wished. Only ran in my Wagon for 500 miles tops the decided to break , Short block had only done 45000 miles when bought.

Up for sale again due to buyer no longer wanting and deciding to break his car !!!

Engine is sitting in a heated garage in dunfermline fife ready to pick up. If wishing to post then i cold pallet for extra cost which buyer would pick up .

bump , offers ?

 

Hi friend,2.0 or 2.5?
Thanks

 

Stock pistons and rods on 490 bhp......2.0 i would say

 

2.0 as above mate !!

 

Is it safe long term to run near 500bhp on a non forged engine ? Excuse the newbie lack of knowledge.

 

Was a advised by both Duncan at racedynamix and HQ performance it was fine , never gave me any problems , can run from 300 to 500 if you wish doesn't have to be top end mate all the time

 

Newage STI engines are pretty strong as standard, but most mappers start to get nervous near 450BHP & won't go above.

 

Who mapped the car/engine?

 

Duncan @ race Dynamix

 

Potential for 530-550 are you mad??.. Potential to do it once and **** itself... Those figures you are throwing around are mad...
450 max is where that block if it's a newage one should be pushed to..

I'm about 10k into an engine build to make 600bhp and your going to do 530-550 on a standard block... ???????????

 

Opinion heard , engine sold ..thanks for feedback guy wants 420 so happy chappy

 

Lots of people on the forum have run over 500 on the stock engine mate. I run 510 on 20% meth for 10k trying to blow the thing, still going strong

 

Running very close to those figures on my stock lump too !

 

Don't big them up too much lads......the value will be going through the roof......and I want one haha!

 

1 dude was running over 550 for a while on here, it may have been on VP Import, not sure.
