are these legal? or do i need a cert for them?

And it would be an increase in power.

There is a piece in there about engine transplants being ok as long as they bolt in and are equal or less power.

Although I don;t see reason to put a different engine in a car with equal or less power....kind of defeats the purpose.

"should" be certed.

so does that mean putting a wrx engine (turbo ej20g) into a impreza (non turbo) requires a cert??

Yes ffs.

And a hoop around the driveshaft just to piss you off.

[Treecrusher]

What is the hoop around the drive shaft for? Does a turbo Subaru have this?

[Koom]

Nope. But any vehicle that has been turbocharged (from being N/A) then you must put a hoop around the driveshaft to prevent it from polevaulting the car when you break it from the huuuge increase in torque. I actually haven't checked if this still exists but it did 5 years ago when my flatmate put an SR20det into a 180sx that had been N/A. Pissed him off no end.

whats if all turbo gear was used? so turbo drive shaft in this case?

-smurff

Doesn't matter. Its a rule. Could make a solid cromoly one if you wanted, still won't allow it without a hoop. Just in case
