Shevon · 01-03-2012, 12:41 PM

Yep definately a blow off valve

Snoopyalien24 · 01-03-2012, 12:46 PM

Yeah thats a BOV but why does it have such a STi rumble, if it has equal headers or something? Maybe this is an engine swap to the EJ?

That's what a post on page 1 said..could be

I have to vote for Ej swap..If not, that would be some hella-fast turbo development.

I wouldn't go that far....lol. Just that they swapped in an Ej for drifting to get more power (as it's unfortunately needed in FD).

Wish they had a mobile video

. Work firewall blocks the video

Nothing special guys. It is just like the BRZ GT300, an AS1 with EJ. No turbo for production model. That was also the puprose in the concept of have the same engine mounts as for both FA and EJ.

Dragonitti · 01-03-2012, 01:38 PM

Turkey BOV...just heard the video...lol. Yeah Boxer rumble too, so Ej must be since they are easily swapped in supposedly. Should be sick though to have the big power out of a well balanced and light chassis. Weird hearing that sound and seeing it not in a WRX.

Thats why a BIW offering could be an awesome start for a killer build!

Just playing devils advocate here, but the new motor would also have a rumble with an unequal header would it not?

I also think it's an EJ, but it may be something else.
