so basically if you get an STi, keep it to bolt ons and such? also, whats the deal with this great FA20 motor? so the compression ratio is too high and thats why they blow? then i dont understand whats the deal with the new WRX. isnt that a FA20 with a turbo? why is that safe? and if thats the case then wouldnt the best engine swap for an 86 be that exact motor, the FA20 DIT??
