250 hp for $1500 with adapter any one?
Thinking of cows jumping over the moon one night laying in bed thinking, I decided that the subaru EJ20T is an excellent choice for a motor. And for the value, it can't be beat.
Here is how I came up with the $1500 figure:
EJ20T from Nippon-motors.com - $650
Shipping average - $200
Adapter with fly wheel from kennedy engineering - $410
Clutch from anyone your little heart desires - $190
ECU off of Ebay - $50
A 915/901 wouldn't have any problems holding up to this motor which would be one wicked little combo. Not to bad since a 150 hp air-cooled motor averages between $3000-$4500, which is what you could get this whole setup for.
I'm going with the EJ20TT. I'm doing a single turbo conversion. I'll run the motor at 18 lbs of boost until it blows up then get a STI shortblock and put forged and billet goodies and cryo and nitride the block and crank and then put 33 lbs of boost and then play with my 540 hp 6 speed toy.
Rock and Roll :help:!
