Calishere

My car originally came from New York, they dump massive loads of salt there as well but you're correct I'll get it sealed lol

Haha well my inbox is open for advice , I also have received clarification .. I can drive my Car for 30 days after it arrives before I have to sorn it if I don't get it registered / mot'ed

Thanks guys I really appreciate the help! I'm willing to travel if it means a friendly mot station.

Thank you I appreciate it!

Yes he can do e tuning quite easily, just would also like to see if I have any support outside of him just in case he's busy. I'm just worried about the MOT situation because I'm unsure if I can drive out of Suffolk or not. I might have to trailer my car to a friendly mot station to get it to pass lol but I'll worry about it later. Thanks again stants ! I'm hoping that if I can get it all figured out I'll be joining everyone on some meets and cruises ;) I'll take you for a ride if you'd like hah

Thanks stants ! I really appreciate it. I'll be in the U.K. for a minimum of 3 years. I might have it napped for your fuel but not sure what octane you guys have either. Might stay on e85 ( id have to buy it from Sunoco or vp racing though.) My tuner said he could e-tune me for any fuel. But the issue I'll run into is the system I use to tune is called COBB access port and it's only usdm supported so don't think any of the shops out in the uk would know how to use it or have access to it. I might have to use tactrix or ecutech

So here begins the start of a project that has taken me forever to complete... I'd like to thank Moore Performance No Limit Motorsports MA Performance Flat 4 motorsports DCCD PRO It first started back in 2012 when i bought a used 2008 Aspen white STI from a guy located in new york... Im originally from new york but im stationed in Arkansas so it was a bit of a travel but i snagged it for a good deal and with 42k miles on the motor... She was then named " Riley " When i bought her she had basically a stage 2 setup , Aem Intake, Invidia down pipe, invidia n1 exhaust, Tein S tech springs ( crap ) Cobb AP ... After driving it from new york and around Arkansas for a while June 2012- Dec- 2012... i spun a rod bearing .... total loss on the motor / turbo ect.... locked up on the high way and couldn't even crank it over... towed it home ... started spinning the crank by hand and ended up turning it over to hear the sound of rod knock ... with 55k miles on the motor and basically 2 weeks left on the 6 year power train warranty... Subaru decided to warranty the entire motor... i ended up with a brand new SB ... re worked heads / brand new turbo ect..... got it back Jan 2013.... I drove Riley around for about 2 months while talking to a shop ( one that shall not be named but will be known as "****" ) We had come up with a plan to build a 500whp car for a decent price... originally it would of been a BW 8375 w/ supporting mods... Fast forward to march 2013... my car is shipped of to the **** shop in IL where it is taken apart... deposit put that ( $7000 ) and work is started.. with a lead time of about may to have it completed and ready for Scoobapalooza .... The next few months are dedicated to multiple calls... run arounds and lack of progress on their end... I decide to randomly take a visit to said shop... The guy ive been talking to up there is beyond shocked that i showed up randomly... He proceeds to tell me that my motor is being worked at by their " engine builder " i again ask whats going on and around what time should i expect my car back to me ... he says " 2 weeks " .... i press on to new york to visit my family and take some well deserved vacation... two weeks comes and goes... and he starts avoiding my calls all together... I eventually have a friend call him ... he picks up first ring... lol... i immediately there after.... no pick up at all... at this point im on my way back to IL to meet up with a friend that had a job interview at a shop in IL .... I call **** shop and ask to meet up with them the next day... fed up with lack of progress / no proof of anything being done.. i meet up and tell them im pulling my car and either want my money back + a new long block or my motor and my car.... they decided to give me the motor they've worked on and my car back... the shop that my friend ended up getting a job at decides to help out and hold my car for me until i figure things out... so basically my car was at **** shop from Mar 2013 - Aug 2013 with no progress... I finally get the motor and all my parts from them to find out that ... they had gave me the wrong cams / Rod bolts / and a few other parts... furious i threaten legal recourse and they fix what they've jacked up ........ I have the second shop fix the heads and send my car back to me in Feb 2014... still long block out of the car and SB assembled ... So out of curiousty i have the engine shop that did the work send me a copy of the build specs.... they're absolute crap... to give you an idea of what my clearances where.... Mains looked .0024 - .0029 i decide to take the SB apart and get everything where i want them ... after this painful ordeal i've finally gotten my motor together ... installed in my car and running.... Now waiting on time to get it to the Dyno and final tuning....

Switched Compressor housings and wheels. Went from a ct43 (42R) to a ct4 (35r-37R) ? New turbo is a 6465 Old was a 6767

Sounds good to me !! I'll start another thread as well :) So it can be any type of cat ? Is there a noise requirement ?

I'll be uploading video to photobucket shortly and posting here. Was the last turbo I had in there

No cats currently in the exhaust , though I might be adding one or two to the mid pipe seeing as my down pipe is 4" I have a lot of other pictures of you are interested in the build

Thank you!! Hah I did 95 percent of the work myself. Built the motor and a few other things.

Hey all, I'll be moving from the U.S. and looking for some helping finding a shop that is "helpful" with passing the MOT ... I have a highly modified 700+bhp Subaru and would love to be able to drive it from time to time on meets , cruises ! I'll be in the Suffolk area and believe i might be only allowed to drive in that area until after I complete and MOT and the registration process ! Any help is deeply appreciated !
