Hi all,
I've recently purchased a '00 bugseye wrx knowing it had a blown turbo and was burning excessive amounts of oil. Unfortunately, the turbo isn't the only thing that is stuffed but the engine too as it is still puffing plenty of blue smoke at both idle and on load. I plan on doing a compression test in the next few days when I get a spare moment but I'm just pre-emptively exploring my options. What model of EJ would serve as a good replacement other than the EJ205 that is in there currently from factory? Would an engine from a twin turbo B4 be appropriate/an easy substitute? Sorry if this is a dumb question, I've just hopped on the subaru bandwagon so bare with me
Thanks very much.
