Does he have any road going SVXs that have this work already done on it? If it is emissions free and something that can be driven by anyone (carefully), then I am sure he'd have a couple of buyers. I think we forgot to thank you for the info. Thanks!
You're very welcome. He told me this was for a dyno tuned motor on 91 octane, they don't have 93 in CA. Basically it's the same motor as the 1,000hp he only builds but detuned for pump gas and between 4-500chp. Considering it would cost about $10k to swap in an STi motor with 500chp and the rarity of the build, it isn't a bad deal. I also think he has access to the $45k aircraft engine parts bin. I love the sound of the EG33 and turbo boost, so I'm sold. Group buy anyone, j/k. I didn't ask him if he had a SVX though.

His email is costamesardauto@sbcglobal.net for any questions.
