Bump for more details!

I can't get in to the "stage" terminology. What makes it stage 3? What would 1 and 2 entail? Just curious not hating or anything I just want to know, is there headwork or valve train changes?

Stage 2 - above + headers, tune , Inj etc Stage 3 - Internals + Turbo kit ??? Just a guess..... |
Yay Big Builds! Yay AWDTuning! Yay Flower Mound! That's where I live!

Stage 2 = modifications that require other work or parts for them to be reliable/work correctly (ex. turbos require an intercooler) Stage 3 = competition level modifications that make it less suitable for road use Just from my understanding, this is what the three stages mean. |
Need a shop like this near Austin. This could be worth the drive up to Flowermound!
|
Cool stuff. Can't wait to see results.
|
Very nice. Interested to see how all this turns out. :happyanim:

To answer your question, the Stage 3 that we are referring to is to classify the engine build. We don't usually classify stage's for power mods because there are so many different uses for the stages. We build over 250+ Subaru engines a year and developed our own Stages to help us better identify the power levels that each engine can handle. Here is how we personally break down our stage engines at AWDTuning (this may not be the same as other shops) Stage 0 = OEM Stage 1 = OEM w/ Forged pistons Stage 2 = Forged pistons and forged hbeam rods Stage 3 = (This has stage has multiple combinations that will qualify) Forged pistons with forged hbeam rods and darton sleeves or Forged pistons with forged ibeam rods Forged pistons with forged xbeam rods Stage 4 = Forged pistons, forged xbeam rods and darton sleeves Stage 5 = Forged pistons, forged xbeam rods, darton sleeves and a billet crank And this is how we classify our shortblocks. Heads have their own, but we don't usually classify those because we list our what exactly is done. This Stage3 FA20 build has Arias forged pistons and Pauter xbeam connecting rods. Arias forged pistons are 9.1:1 we polished the OEM brank because it was in great shape, we used OEM bearings for this build but like Rick said, we are working with ACL to develop bearings for this platform, Stock headgaskets were used, we rebuilt the heads to factory specs, but they are stock heads. As for the power mods, we are using an Accelarated Performance GT28 Turbo kit with FMIC and full exhaust system, Tial 38mm wastegate, DW 1000cc injectors, DW 65 fuel pump, stock headers. We are also using a Clutch Masters FX400 clutch, Cusco sway bars, StopTech big brake kit, and a custom mocal oil cooler. We will be tuning the car on E85 using an EcuTek license. Hopefully this will answer some of your questions. Let me know if you have any more! ~Mary |
sweet, want to see the dyno graph of that one for sure
|
subscribed for moar pics and #'s :D
|
@awdtuning, what are your predicted #'s after the build and tune?
|
Looks like a great build, I'm excited to see the end product. When doing these types of build do other bolt on mods like intake and exhaust have more or less of an impact?
|
awesome looking forward to the result. nice seeing someone really digging into the engine
|
I'm more so interested to see how this car reacts with the lower compression, given that we have already seen its power curve with 12.5:1

Nice to see a local shop diving into a project like this. I met Keith at the Chili's meet a while back and he said nobody had expressed any interest in building or even tuning their BRZ yet.
Looks like by the time my warranty is up, AWD tuning will have some under their belt :happy0180: |
How do you guys feel about the stock fuel pump?
|
Got the FRS started up today... engine sounds Amazing! We are still waiting on a few parts and working on a final solution for the intake, but it runs great!
The Perrin Performance oil cooler is very nice! It fits very well, cleared our turbo kit with no issues, required no modification and even came with all the hardware and thermal wrap needed for a nice clean installation. Great job, as always, from the guys over at Perrin! The StopTech brakes are a great fit as well. Very impressed with the quality of the whole kit as well. Can't wait to see them in action! We installed the kw variant 3 coilovers as well. Right now they are lowered but the are adjustable so we can raise them if we need. We should have the last of the parts in early next week. Then we will break in the brakes before getting it on the road. We will be putting about 300-500 break-in miles on the engine before getting it on the dyno. Hopefully it should be on the dyno by next weekend. I'll keep you posted! Until then, enjoy the pictures! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8084/8...d02a731ee6.jpg IMG_3970 by awdtuning, on Flickr http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8190/8...1d459561f1.jpg IMG_3971 by awdtuning, on Flickr http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8097/8...fd08b3babd.jpg IMG_3973 by awdtuning, on Flickr http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8374/8...aa39ed7a18.jpg IMG_3974 by awdtuning, on Flickr http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8212/8...55b8c17764.jpg IMG_3883 by awdtuning, on Flickr http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8234/8...3541014699.jpg awdtuning by awdtuning, on Flickr http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8237/8...e5ab661115.jpg IMG_2374 by awdtuning, on Flickr http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8497/8...735768488e.jpg awdtuning by awdtuning, on Flickr |
What wheels are those? What size tire on the rear?
|
Sweet build! Looks like you have a hard time saying "no" to upgrades!
Looking forward to seeing how the build ends up. |
Edit, wrong User ID
|
Did arias retain the OEM fan shape for direct injection on the new lower comp pistons?
|
What hp & torque are you hoping to achieve? Looks great so far!!

Just won a free T-Shirt from AWDTuning, not thread related really but im exited, had to share :)
