You guys like 2.5RS' right?


Hi Guys!

Let me introduce you to Alan B's car!

Alan's car has been with us a while, and it's very near completion!

This car started life as a Impreza 2.5rs, and it has been transformed to what you see here today! The car has beautiful Java Black Pearl paint, and is otherwise a full STi conversion, from drive-line, to motor, to interior. However, that wasn't enough for Alan! Please check the pictures below to see where he decided to go with the car!

Now, I suppose you're wondering, "what does that car need that big old intercooler for?! That thing is huge!"

Well... I give you, the money shot(s)...


Introducing the ECS Performance Twin Scroll Turbo Kit!

The manifold is a custom, hand-made, twin scroll equal length header, featuring two Tial 38mm Wastegates, custom hand made down-pipe and exhaust piping, and a Borg Warner S362 Twin Scroll TurboCharger.


The car is just about done, it has a base-map, and the car will soon be getting tuned for delivery! Stay tuned for Dyno Numbers, Videos, and moAr information!!


First person (who hasn't seen the car in person, or been told the answer) to guess what is missing from the engine bay gets an ECS Performance Sticker on their next visit!

Where's the battery tie down?


And, what happened to the front turn signals?

^^^You mean reversed intake manifold? And why does it need methanol? I think it NEEDS to be driven hard, and put away wet!!

what ed said, but there should still be a throttlebody before the intake manifold

I was thinking where is the throttle body, but maybe it has roller barrel throttle bodies? also, I can't see the ABS pump.

wondering about something from the pictures. I'm not a subbie expert but why so many harsh bends in the IC piping??? I only saw the picture of the pipes coming out of the IC but its a pretty straight cut 90 degree elbow. is that the only way to get a FMIC on the subbie? or is it because it's so big of an IC?

Looks good. I'll be interested in the full build spec sheets and dyno pulls.
Nice JDM seats, did he add a 6spd STi tranny w/DCCD?
I didn't see the STi DCCD switch installed.
If his motor is built, why NOT meth-hell, more HP for pennies! :)

The RS is a full STi drive and powertrain, and the car already has meth. ;)
