I'm restarting my build and have been rethinking the motor. I have built with the Subaru 2.0 STI motor but have been looking at the EZ 30. Was wondering what you guys think.

Dealers choice. I like the sound of the 6 over the 4 but that's a personal preference. I also wanted to keep the 4 lug Fuch's and the EZ30 was well within the limits of the OEM CV's. If it's high HP you seek the Turbo 4 would be your choice. The 3.0's & 3.6's range 218 -247 ft lb torque which is plenty for me. The exhaust system on the Turbo's takes a bit of creativity. Either way you go use the Subaru transmission. When done correctly you will wonder why everyone isn't doing this. I've got a little over 13K on mine and love it. Their reliable power plants and not too expensive to own. I've gotten gas milage in the high 30's. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
