Ok so I have a 2010 WRX and i want to make it rather reliable and strong and most imporant quick.

Maximum has done the official work on it

3" Turbo Back Exhaust
Hyperflow Cold Air
Ecutek

And it made 212WKW @ 416.5 Nm

Now it is off to get the bottom end rebuilt due to piston rings just not being able to cut it

Im thinking

Bottom End Built With all Cosworh Gear
Cams 272
New Turbo and Intercooler

Anyone have any suggestions or known facts before i give my car to either

JPC
Allstar
MAximum MotorSport

(ALL BUILT)

2 litre bottom end instead of 2.5 shitter, with a 2.2 stroker

nope cause they were saying how the mods cause the engine failure, lucky i have saved over a couple of years.

they said 20 k to fix hahaha i laughed at them, id rather donate to charity

^^ THiS!!!!

Should work out cheaper and works better with your reliability comment.

I'm a charity

It was tuned for the mods though yes? I thought ECUTek was approved by Subaru? To which it would then be a case of yes, it was a failure on the engine side, and not the mods/tune?

Tough one though.

Will be intersting to see if any more 2010's come out of the woodwork with the same issue.

212/416 is pretty solid from listed mods. How much boost?

Maybe in conjunction with the report from Subaru saying your tune broke the motor, you can claim your money back on ECUTek's 100% Money Back Guarantee??

Worth a try at least.

Still trying to work out how those 3 simple mods resulted in a dead engine......makes me ask the question; how piss weak are the MY10 2.5's?

My old 06 XT made 217wkw and 422nm on 18.5 psi and went solid, no problems engine wise.
Sounds like more of a case of a dud tune if you ask me combined with, perhaps, a monday engine.

Bad luck it wasn't an MRT kit or you'd have had warranty according to the cr@p spun on their website.
