Dude, just tell your friend to buy this and put it in...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33615 I have a turboed 99 2.5RS... I wouldn't suggest turboing that motor, he will have to change the block shortly after... Unless you have a very good knowledge of cars, I would - lota work... |

If you can afford the STi swap, go for it.
If not, buy a used turbo kit, good EMS (no piggybacks), and find your friend a good tuner... on a 99, I have a friend running 16 psi on a stock motor for the past year or so.. and he run 12 psi for over 3 years.... he's an awesome tuner though. http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/show...ghlight=294WHP |
