This is from the above link that you posted about talking to Dennis in January:

anyway, as i understand it the 22B block is a variation of the EJ20G - bored and stroked...not the underrated USDM EJ22T.

and youre right, no oil squirters - isnt that crazy?
Hmmm....Gee, isn't that strange?

Dude, before you go slandering my name at least get the facts straight. That wasn't what he said back in January. This is also a responce to Dennis's above post in the same thread:

You're right the engine in the 22b was a bored (I'm not sure if stroke changed, but it might) out STi V4 Type R 2.0l engine. It retained the same heads and turbo as the v4 type R, IIRC.

Markedly different from the USDM 2.2L turbo engine in terms of build process, but when all is said and done, the nt result is a 2.2L engine with very similar attributes (I'm hazarding a guess that the bore, stroke, and subsequent rod-to-stroke ratio is the same as well). Like you said, all ej-series engines were originally derived from the 1.8L engine anyways . . .

So the "technical name' for the 22b was the STi v4 Type R 22b. Try saying that five times fast
As you can see I was only quoting what was said by other's and not "putting out crap". I have no control over wheather or not people are going to change their stories when people challange them. All I was trying to say is that Dennis had said the 22b was a bored variant of the EJ20G (which he did say) and I guess I got 2.5GT's mention of the STI v4 type R confused with what Dennis said. I was trusting what Dennis had to say as being the most reliable since he was the only person in the conversations that actually has access to a 22b. It seems the information is getting a little inconsistant though so.....
