wow a lot of power for a stock STI block, great tunning and good choice of turbo. I am sure the turbo lag is what's helping that engine make that power, if that turbo made boost a lot eariler the torque would be crazy and shred that engine apart. Props for a clean set up though, you guys really pulled it off with this uniques STi body style.

The car is coming along beautifully 
.
No offense on the Deals Gap, but we all know cars have distinct advantage in braking and handling in very tight corners. If I'm not mistaken, that's pretty much all Deals Gap offers.
Obviously bike's advantages are high speed turns and accelation out of the turns.
Nonetheless, awesome build.

Today we received the heads that will sit atop the Manely 2.6L stroker in our 2011 STI. The heads have been reworked with CNC porting, Manely oversized valves, Manely Beehive springs and retainers.

Brian Crower Stroker? I was always under the impression that they weren't of the best quality due to lack of quality control. You trust them in a build of this caliber?
