The Fozzy XTi has long been a testbed for all sorts of Moore-branded parts; we never know how certain combos are going to turn out until they go from paper to the dyno...but it's fun finding out!

 

The goal this round was a mix of both low-end response and top-end power...all while funneling it through a Subaru 5 speed trans and a non-sleeved block. We're very happy with the results of the BlastPlates for the transmission that we've been offering for awhile now, not to mention the prototype of our new girdle/windage brace! We're also closer to a

production-style intake manifold with this round of testing. Furthermore, we have some new tweaks to try out for our twin-scroll specific camshaft and CNC porting programs.

 

All-in-all this is a solid-performing setup that, with a few modifications, has the potential for faster spool...even through there's still headroom in both compressor and turbine flow; I guess we'll see what happens next round. But until then, a big thanks to Mike @ Innovative Tuning for the stellar calibrations, Mike Vindler for his CAD/Forester-specific prowess and Jason Economu at Carbotron for the late night whiteboard sessions.

How is the trans holding up with those blast plates?

 

Sorry for the old thread revival

 

trans held up great, bad news is we have short attention spans...
