Hey all. Looking to swap a '13 motor into a '13 car. Anyone done this yet? Car has no transmission so auto or manual shouldn't be an issue

I did, until I lost sight of it about 30 ft. straight up. At least now I can see the valves though, if they need adjusting.

Hey guys, so I was doing some reading on the Cobb Tuning website and it says they can make up to 450whp SAFELY on the stop FA24 in the Accent. Do you think we can make that on the 2nd gen BRZ? I think with the new 13:1 it will be possible!

Absolutely but I'm such a pencil ****ed purist that I prefer to pull a plug wire off and enjoy the purity of slowness. Then I come here and bitch about anyone who wants more power because I am the God of the gearbox.

You bloody purists with your shifting gears to stay in the power zone and other fancy driving stuff. Everybody knows that these cars need at least 300HP or they are useless. Before I got my Ebay turbo and a proper CAI I had to sit on the side of the on ramp and wait for all the Geo Metros and Yugos to get past so I could get up to speed to merge. Now I estimate that I have about 1,000HP and all the guys hard parked with me at the speed shop parking lot and my 12 Instagram followers all say I am the coolest guy ever. You purists have no clue how good it is.
Oh on a side note my engine is making this weird clanking noise since I went with that 50lb waste gate anybody know what it could be?
