    I need some help...

    I have an 04 Wrx with a stock motor with an STi bottom end, 750 cc Fuel Injectors Perrin Fuel Rails, Walbro Fuel Pump, FP Green Turbo, MaxFlow TMIC, Prodrive Down Pipe and Prodrive Catback Exhaust, and its tuned with a Cobb Accessport.

    Sadly I threw a Rod in it yesterday. So I am considering putting a new 08 Wrx or STi block in and switching over the parts(they are all less than 2 years old).

    What is the difference between the 08 WRX block and the 08 STi block? What are the pros/cons of using either?

    I am trying to make the best out of my car, I do drive it daily. All the help is VERY Appreciated!! I have to get this done ASAP so I can have my car back for work. Thanks Again Everyone!

    so confused here...

    do you have a 2.0 or 2.5 motor?

    or you have a 2.5 block with 2.0 heads.
