There are probably 15 threads on fa20dit swaps. Its worthless. It won't fit. It has a crappy turbo and intercooler and doesn't have the port injections system which I think will be the downfall in 5 years like every other di only car on the market thats been a catastrophe. You will see fa20 4d-s swaps into wrx's I guaranty it.

Fa20s are blowing up from user error or abuse. 400whp on e85 is getting more and more common on a stock engine.
This. I laugh at the people who start talking about swapping in an EJ..
