    As most of you know, I blew my EJ20 a couple of years back and had been working on building my new motor. I'm getting close to being done finally and am working on the assembly (some things have changed since I my original setup ideas...):

    EJ257 block bored to 100mm
    Brian Crower Stroker Crank
    Eagle Rods (custom ordered to work with stroker crank)
    Wiseco Pistons
    FIC 2150 Injectors (ordered, but not received yet)
    Kelford 286* cams
    Brian Crower Springs & Retainers
    P&P EJ20 Heads (kept them for their smaller quench area/higher compression)
    Dual Walbro fuel pumps
    Boomba Fuel Rails
    PT6262 Billet turbo
    ZEX wet kit (probably a 100 shot...but we'll see)
    TGV Deletes
    along with everything I had before I tore the motor out.

    Still debating on diff's, axles, driveshafts, coil overs and a few other odds and ends.

    Big thanks to Jason Kellen, for his awesome paintjob on the block, Weshole for his accent painting on the other items, FujiK for his head work, Elroy @ Subaru for assembling the head after the P&P, my wife Jolien for letting me build an engine in the basement of our house, Stephen Bradley for demanding that we finally work on this thing and get it together, Shawn Jacob for letting me use his engine stand, Kevin Smith for letting me borrow his engine lift, and everyone else who has helped out along the way.

                No RWD WRX this year........though I do technically have everything I need to do this, I just see this as delaying the process even longer.....unless I can figured out how to convert my center diff to make it RWD

                      I have a TH350 and Ford 8.8 ready to go in, just don't want to mess with the fabrication aspect of it quite yet.

                      Goals.... I don't know. Ideally I'd like to get close to 600 with this setup, but anything over 500 will make me happy I guess. Will be tuning for E98 (race tune) as well as E85 (Daily tune). Thought about doing a pump gas tune, but IDK if that is going to be necessary
