285whp??... Haha, it's back - with 320whp!!
Well here I am, sitting at the computer late at night because I can't sleep... I figure I'll surf NASIOC's "Prooven Power Bragging" forum since I no longer own the SVX and like the feeling of a ~450wtq STi engine...
All of the sudden I see this thread... http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/show....php?t=1652516 With THIS Video in it... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqnuj58lFQI That's right... That 3.3ltr (EG33) swapped race 2.5RS is back... This time with a fully build motor, and the results (AND VIDEO) are mind-blowing... I mean I can't imagine an SVX with this much NA power. That's almost as much that's in my current car!! I'll tell ya what though, seeing this thread really REALLY makes me miss the SVX and all the dreams I had for it once apon a time ... I hope I can find another SVX someday... ~ Chris

Nice numbers!
What's up with the dyno pull though? Does the shop not know how to do a pull correctly?

That video is of a top-speed run, not the actual dyno pull. With the Mustang dyno you can insert the car's drag coefficient from the database, the vehicle's weight and gearing, and then do a 'pull' with simulated drag from the dyno. 7600 rpm's in 5th gear on that run according to Jack.

Just an FYI. The car this engine is fitted to is being parted out, therefore the 318 whp/276 wtq EG33 (now 3.5 litres) is available as a complete engine with oil pan, headers, cold air box. (ECU is separate however)
Interested parties should contact Jack Laverty at EFI Logics. |

Like I said, contact Jack for specifics. I *think* he was talking around $5k however.
There's about $10k in parts and machine work invested. That does not include the R & D me and Jack invested nor my labor to port the heads, flow the heads and design the cams, build the headers/collectors, and build the cold air box. So realistically there's $13-14k invested in it assuming my time is worth $50 per hour. |

About the numbers, the stock engine produces 230HP and it sounded from the thread linked here that this engine produced somewhere above 390HP with 318HP being delivered to the wheels. Is that correct?

Bob, any Idea what it would cost to duplicate that oil pan? Did you guys use OEM windage baffle and sump?

Re: 285whp??... Haha, it's back - with 320whp!!
No, the entire car is at Jack's house now in northeastern CT. He's sick of dumping money into it and now that he's married the wife frowns upon a $20k per year racing budget... So he decided to part it out.
The cooling system was working well the last time he had the car out. 8200 rpm shift points and all. An SVX would have far more room for a bigger radiator as well as more space for proper airflow compared to an Impreza. It made 318 hp to the wheels on a Mustang chassis dyno. Call it 415-420 hp at the crank (24% driveline loss). I think that if someone invested in ITBs with this combo you'd see another 30-40 whp. Last edited by RallyBob; 01-17-2011 at 08:30 AM. |

However I built the oil pan on an spare block with the headers present and with the crossmember available to me (Impreza). I don't know if it would clear anyone else's exhaust system and the SVX crossmember. I did retain the stock oil pan baffles, and the stock pickup tube. I had some issues with the original sump tube arrangement, and ideally I wanted to create a new sump location...but time/money was an issue so I compromised and kept it OEM for Jack's sake. My next EG33 oil pan will be a dry sump design however.... |

Is he going to sell the ECU with the engine? Also you say contact him direct how do we do that?
