Episode 047: Special Guest Dave from Rallispec - All About Subaru Engines

For Episode 47 of the Flatirons Syndicate Motorsports Podcast, we have Dave from Rallispec returning to the Podcast to talk about Subaru engines. If you listened to our first podcast with Dave (Episode #24), you know that Rallispec started building and modifying Subaru's before the WRX had even landed here in the US. It didn't take long for them to get a pretty clear idea of what components in the engine needed to be changed out or upgraded to hold more power reliably, and that was the start of their engine program. Now, all these years later, Rallispec has a number of different engine packages available starting from short blocks that simply have forged pistons installed all the way up to closed deck blocks that are built to hold more than 900 horsepower.   In this episode, we talk with Dave first about the different options that you would want to consider if you are looking for a built block. From there we move on to have a great conversation about how important it is to consider the entire engine package from the turbo to the heads and valve train as well as the short block. Whether you are just looking for a first step to improve your EJ255, EJ257, or EJ207, or if you are looking to build a full long block for your WRX or STI, there is a ton of great information in this podcast for you. Thanks very much for listening, and Stay Tuned!
