Default That's what they say...

Time will tell how "weak" it is, but I like the selectable center diff settings for tarmac, gravel and snow. Sure kicks a Torsen's ***.

Default NO NO NO, slap your friend around

the EJ25 (2.5L), is a TOTAALLY different block
than the EJ20 (2.0)

the EJ20 is an opendeck design block
and the EJ25 is a semi closed-deck

it's not a stroked or overbored motor

Default ok but everything hooks up to both blocks

consider it a b series moto from honda. they are all different displacements, but all the parts will fit any b series.

same thing with the wrx and sti.

Default I wouldn't go that far

I can bolt some STi heads to a block of swiss cheese,
doesn't mean it's any good for my purpose

Default Well...

Truth be told, everything is interchangeable between the two, from turbochargers to headers to exhausts to...well, you get the point.
