2009 Subaru STi blackhole.
« on: February 29, 2016, 08:51:23 am »
Hello everyone welcome to my hell.

I bought the car in October and since December 15th its been at the shop getting lots of repair work done. Basically what happened is piston rings were not seated properly or cracked one of the old injectors was flowing out of control and eventually washed out the entire engine and destroyed the turbo seal's

So since then the block has been bored out slightly the heads have been inspected and machined as well as the cams and crank. The turbo has been repaired (twice now sigh) at Alamo Edmonton

The rebuild and repair work has all been completed at Apex in edmonton where the car is sitting again due to a vacuum /  boost leak. Any ways here it is.

Love the car. Hope you get everything figured out and running properly as it doesn't look like you've had the best luck on the fb page.
