Hello All,

I have had a project 914 since 2009. I have a hard full of 1.7's and 2.0's, I feel I am tired of these.. plus.. the 901 I feel is the downside... from my past ownership of a 914. I have decided to go subaru. On this forum. I see so many, some go 2.0, some go 2.5? Turbo?

I am unsure of what combo to look for. It sounds like Turbo motors, need turbo 5spds. which are very hard to find. So is naturally aspirated jus fine? I would think so.

I have gotten prices of a non turbo 2.5 from 2005sih at 1500.00... ugh.

Do there majority of the sub motors mount to the transaxles? Or anybody in California want to sell a motor/trans? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I would love a turbo, but I think I am ok with a non turbo...

any help? Thoughts?
