Without getting into a lot of depth on this subject just wondering if anyone sees a problem with a Subie conversion using a 2005 Subaru Outback XT Turbo 2.5L H4 engine combined with a 901 Transmission. (250hp/359 lbs). Vs other Subie conversion. Also isn’t it usually better to buy a donor car instead of piecing it together (engine/ECM/electronics etc)?

It's not hard you simply use the early speedo drive that attaches to a cable. It screws in where the VSS goes.
