I have many wheels and cogs spinning in my head with various projects I would like to fulfill in the up coming years, and I'm throwing them on here to get feedback, advice, and help with some ideas I have. I'll try to update this original post with more Subaru related projects and I'll probably start another thread for other automotive/everything else :grin:

My first idea, I'm planning on building the 2.2/2.5 low compression frankenmotor (eventually) and I was wondering what I would do with the 2.2 heads I have left over. I could sell them for a few bucks or I could keep them on a shelf in the garage collecting dust and dirt for X years. Then I had a thought, what about a 1.8/2.2 baby frankenmotor? If it would work I thought about getting a very early model 2 door Impreza (93 to 95) but since this is SLi, I would much rather stick the boosted baby motor in a first gen Legacy and make it an AutoX or track car :grin:

Thoughts, comments, concerns are welcome!

wow that's an awesome build. I like your idea of making use of loose ends (2.2 heads)

Thanks! I don't think mine will be as good as his, but I just want to build one! lol I love tinkering with stuff like this.
