will the new wrx engine fit the frs?
 
Im sure this has been mentioned before but im curious if the new 2.0DIT
would fit the frs? The turbo set up is the same as AVO so i dont think it would be too hard for it to fit?

yes it is the same engine as the frs with turbo and DI:

Is it confirmed which engine will be in the 2015 WRX? If it is the FA20, then you should know the answer... - They did say it is going to be a 2.0L @ 268bhp/258tq

Fit? Yes
Wiring & ECU? GL

Oh also TMIC won't work due to how back the engine is

FA20 DIT I believe. Same as the forester. It has subarus direct injection system instead of toyotas which sucks.

Twin scroll turbo makes this beauty hit 258lb/tq at 2,000rpm.
That would totally fix the frs!

Save the cash and just do the AVO kit then?

What's the CR for the new WRX?

I know i know its just the wrx engine is designed for a turbo so it will last for ever.
All these boosted high compression stock engines in the frs will last 2-3 years and will cause a lot of problems. Its just not built for boost.

I believe its 10:1 but dont quote me on that.

'fit' sure, but the FB20DIT (The FB came years before the FA) isnt going to be anything near plug and play.

Just cause it's designed from factory with boost doesn't mean it'll last forever. A good friend of mine just had a failure in cylinder 3&4 on his 2013 WRX with 30,000km. Not a single power mod installed on it either. Not even a tune.

The other important difference is your friend still has a valid warranty.

No matter how good an engine is im sure there is still a 5% failure rate.
I had an 06 wrx stage 2 that i drove like i stole for 6 years and it was flawless, never had a single issue.

Why do you say FB? this is an FA.

What is FA? The wrx will have a FB unless you link a source I can read?
