Real boxer engine fan know how & what need to be done w boxer engine and how strong it is.
I don't care he pull out boxer engine and put 3S or whatever in this car and need to cut out the hood cuz it's hitting the engine... or putting v8 turbo in corolla and change it into low end tq pig. BUT I do care that hearing those kind of BS from someone that haven't fully worked on boxer engine is complaining about how POS the engine is.
Correct me if I'm wrong, enjoi... actually don't. It's waste my time reading it.  |
Isn't that true with any motor? Too much boost with stock internals and it can only take so much. My buddies STi was running fine and I almost bought it from him b/c that thing was a blast to drive. Wasn't sure how long it would last and I didn't want to be there to find out!

Don't forget that Toyota helps building the engine. And people who don't like the engine shouldn't be here, honestly. There are many good looking, easily-swappable-engine cars, why bother going after the car? It's like swapping LS engine in an RX-7/8, it only makes the car less charming/unique.
BTW, I'm a Toyota fan.

I call dibs on the brand new engine he's going to swap out!!
I have room for a spare!
