Done.
Quoted from C.J. below
"C.J. Synak - What would you like to know? This car gets called out all the time and I don't mind answering whatever questions you have. I bought it new from the dealership and can honestly say the motor has never been out of the car, it has never been disassembled, it is 100% factory from oil pan to valve covers."

Dunno brotha. It goes against anything us Subaru guys have been told.
Maybe the E85 is pixie dust?
Hello gentlemen,
I decided to join the forum and join in on the discussion. I am the owner of the car in question...
500+whp factory longblock cars are not common by any means but that isn't because it isn't possible in my opinion and more a result of people not trying it. There are a few tuners out there that have tuned multiple 500+ cars on the factory engines, including my tuner JR. Most people comment on longevity or lack there of but my car has been running 30+ psi on this GT35R for over 2 years and involved in countless races. The car has had an interesting past of trying to accomplish what others could not, it was converted to E85 6 years ago, being one of the first Subarus to do so. It ran 11s on the factory VF39 5 years ago and would see 25-26psi through that turbo on a regular basis, so the natural next step was to run 10s on the factory engine. I never thought it would last for 2+ years but it has and we have continued to turn it up and just last week it trapped 135mph at the 1/4 mile track which is an indication of the power the car makes. When the time comes and the closed deck motor goes into the car I will take pictures of this factory motor.

I have been saying it for a long time but it all comes down to a quality of tune. In the early years there were a lot of misconceptions about the abilities of the EJ series, it took a few years for US tuners to learn the quirks and unique behaviors of our engines and to ultimately learn they are very unforgiving. All I can say to anyone who wants to follow or emulate my setup, do your research on parts and most importantly research your tuner. There are only 3 guys in this country who I would let calibrate my ECU, most of these so called "tuners" out there these days are snake oil salesmen.
