I'm willing to bet it will be parts that are/will be available to the public. This is a shop car and shop cars are designed to drive sales. I can assure you that Shanes wagon put him on the map amongst WRX owners in this area and is partly to blame for why they have more WRX's in their shop right now than most shops will see in the next year...and thats not a stab at any other shops, just stating what I see. I'm sure this car may have a few unique parts that are rather rare, but not a tremendous amount and those that are rare will probably be in the internals rather than external visual stuff. From what I can tell, this will be a shop-promoting-marketing-machine, as it should be.

I saw Perrin or someone has a built/turbocharged flat six fitted into a STi... that is a interesting motor swap.

Hey dave I got to see this one in person. They didn't have any performance numbers on it yet, or atleast that they weren't telling. Life is good to be Jeff Perrin. It is crazy because that motor looks like it belongs in there. 2006 swapped with a tribeca motor....... gotta love it. When Steve-O comes in I will have him post some of my picks of it.

there ya go. 1-2-3-4-5-6 cylinders

BlueJay's hit it on the head. From what you said, I thought it sounded like you were experimeng with swapping compressor housings on a GT series or something, maybe custom fabbed manifolds. I had originally assumed you would be using off-the-shelf parts available to everyone - and that appears to be the case. I'd love to see you guys, or anyone for that case, get into some serious fabrication in fargo, but I guess we can't all be Goeffe Evans, right?

It also is due that something comes outta here and gets some national recognition as well as a write up in a magazine. Spend $35k on a car, and $60k on modifications should be able to make that dream a reality...

I hope every thing goes well for you Shane, I wish that we would have some Cover cars from the state too.

Yep, thats it... . verrrryy cool. It's actually in one of the latest magazines I have, don't recall which one. I'll check it tonite and see, but I think they had hp figures from it. Very neat swap!

like I said before, parts are scattered all over the country. Then it will come back to us for final assembly. We will have a list of things and who and where once we get the motor back and get everything listed on the site with pics.. Just stay tuned. Couple of extra teasers...... Just ordered Aeromotive pump, fabricating surge tank, converting to EJ20 fuel rails, 1000cc injectors....................................... Oh and it looks final - We are rotating the manifold!!
