Subaru EJ20DETT Transplant Options

[fiid]

Hey all,

I have obtained a Subaru EJ20DETT motor that I intend to put in my 914.

For those not familiar with this motor - here is some info:

Water cooled flat 4 - twin turbos- staged.
276hp, 252.98 lbft torque

The engine also has coil-over-plugs. (i.e. there is a small coil mounted over each spark plug).

My plans fror the project are:
Use Ron Simpson Radiator, and some sheet metal that allows me to retain use of the front trunk. Spare tire in rear trunk.

Rebuild 901 box with billet intermediate plate, side cover, and limited slip.

Mount engine to tranny using KEP adapter.

Fabricate engine mount and exhaust (I'm thinkin 2 glasspacks should do it).


Here are the questions:

How do I get the thing to fire (anyone know of projects or products that can drive 4 coils and no distributer)???

Any better solutions to the transmition question? Should I run a 915? What do you guys think?

I have uprated the suspension to 23mm front sway bars with weltbushings, konis all round and 180lb rear springs. I intend to put bmw front calipers on it and it has a 19mm front master cyl.

Opinions? Ideas? I think this thing is going to rock when it's done!
