I have a few oil coolers in mind, but you make an excellent point about build and construction. Do you have any input on ones you prefer? PM if you would like to share any light on that. If not I understand.

I like Mocal products. High quality heat exchangers (very thermally efficient) and well designed adapters. Make sure the lines are at least -10 and use the highest thermostat you can get.

Building an FA20DIT do and donts?
Hello, I'm going to be building my wrx to handle about 500-600awhp, safely and with room for improvement. Which way I should go IAG or REV WORKS?

I can't speak for neither. I did my own engine build, sourced out my parts, had the block machined and I assembled it to my specs. I spoke to IAG and they had tremendous support but I decided I wanted to build the engine myself. I don't know much about Revworks, I'm sure there a good company as well. I think there is a thread in this section about IAG or andrewtech. If your going to go that high at the wheels your going to be at least 18-20% higher at the crank as far as #s so you may want to option in the closed deck and studs. I went with Studs on mine but kept my stock open deck. I'm shooting for 400-450awhp. This is my daily so want the increased power and reliability. I have other cars that are in the 650-800HP range. Subaru's cases distort. So 600awhp On FA is a really high amount. I would speak to IAG direct and talk about your goals. Bc High Hp and reliability don't go hand in hand you need to sacrifice one |

Thanks for your fast reply bluegoldwrx. You're right. But I want to keep it reliable, so maybe be about 480s to 520s tops for now for a while would be very good for me. I would definetly opt for the closed deck because I dont want to have to build the engine again, because I'm already taking it out. The only thing is that I have to look for a flywheel and clutch set up now that can be this much but that I can also DD it. And also which set up should i go to achieve this kind of power with e85?. Should I have to change to a bigger turbo?
The people that are going to be building the car said that without touching the turbo I should be around 480 with e85. He also recomended the IAG over the Rev Works because he has always been working with them. The only thing is that is a bit more expensive, plus I'm working on a discount with the company that I'm going to be buying the parts from and they dont have the IAG block with them. |

E85 is impossible at full E85. Most if not all who attempt to run E85 at full E85 toast the high pressure pump. You'd be running E30 or E55. You have to blend it. I eventually want to do that. you need to get the cobb flex fuel kit and a DW in tank fuel pump to start.
