500 HP SVX at Subaru Training Center?
I just got off the phone with someone who told me that at the Subaru Training Center (where they send people to become Subaru Master Techs), there is a 500 HP NA SVX. I specifically asked if it was NA, and I asked him several times if it really had 500 HP. I also asked if it had been bored/stroked. The guy didn't know for sure, but he said that Subaru has a fondness for stroking their project motors. Needless-to-say, I was both floored and skeptical when I heard this. Apparently, it has been converted over to a 5-speed with a standard WRX tranny. The guy also said that the EG33 motor was apparently designed by Porsche, and built by Subaru.
Anyone heard anything about this? If the training center is in Japan, could this be the STi SVX that Paddlenz recently mentioned? |
This guy is full of crap. First off, the H6 wasn't designed by porsche. Secondly, in order to get 500hp out of a naturally aspirated engine.... hrm. I'll be back with the technical crap in a few minutes.

Actually, just read this:
http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/show...hlight=fyre4ce You cannot be making 500hp N/A out of 3.3 liters. - Rob |

So the question is...
what exactly is the theoratical max HP you can get from the SVX 3.3 liter AND leaving it N.A.??
hmmmm... Chris |
Now WITH a turbo 500hp would be believable, as the rally team gets over 400 hp out of a 2.0-4 cylinder…at that rate the 3.3 could put out about 660hp:eek:
