- Background
- Bought totally stock in 2016, have done a little work here and there over the past couple of years. 200k kms has lead to low compression across the board, so a rebuild this winter plus all of the upgrades I'm gonna toss at it will bring it back to life.
EDIT - As of August 2019, engine is rebuilt with a small 16g to replace the old worn out T25. I haven’t taken it to the track yet to really get a sense of the performance change, but it definitely feels healthier to drive.
EDIT 2 - July 2020, did a bunch of work over the winter, switched to SD, installed coilovers, FMIC, and 3" turboback exhaust. Ran into really bad boost creep which I haven't been able to conquer, but with this whole Covid-19 mess, I won't be able to hit the strip anyways. Maybe by 2021 I'll finally get a good tune and the creep under control.
