If you need parts call ImportImage. If you need work call S&R. Those are the 2 things you need to know about Subaru!

It is the basic same shop so I know who I recommend. They get their work done by the same machine shop (In kissimmee), Some of the techs bought it yes, And some people left yes, But thats the norm for any shop.

Man thanks a ton for that tid bit of info. I was unsure where to send my LB to get built.

So I read that and then called S&R and talked to Taylor.......and he knows his shit to say the least.

From just the way he described the building process. I acted somewhat ignorant to "let the builder tell me." Everything he said was tits and bang on for what i wanted to hear. He even hit on the dependability and reliability angle which is the first time i've heard that from a builder.

A 10 minute convo convinced me to ditch the builder i was going with and drive 8 hours for him to build it without even a price quote.

Exactly what i was looking for and should be bringing him two motors early next week.

just found this thread lol thanks for the awesome words, man! i'd rather tell someone how things really work and attack their own situation with some knowledge instead of just trying to give a 'sales pitch'

You won't be dissappointed! S&R Has a 08 STI running 600rhp and 600torque. Daily driver!!

Tayor is going to be redoing my wiring harness for my 99 RS WRX swap soon.

I'm shooting for mid 600s. We'll see what the external intake system will allow before i have to go Magnus long-runner and/or run out of fuel (1000s). Just threw in the extra Walby 255.
Fingers crossed*

Well if i did run out of fuel i guess i could get bigger meth nozzles. lol
(I already have a two 440cc nozzles.)

OP sorry to threadjack.
