Subaru SJ Forester with full STI swap 

This is the forester Subaru should have offered from the get go. I test drove the 2017 XT and was not impressed. I opted for the 2017 NA 2.5i Prem with 6spd manual. hopefully in the near future affordable conversion kits will be available. Awesome build!

Just missing the hood scoop. Amazing build!

What a sick transformation! I'm curious what the most challenging parts of the swap were and what lingering issues you might have afterwards. Also, what happened to the white STI?

As I owner of a 18FXT stage 2 this is just 😍😍😍

Woww 🤯

👍👍👍

Sick as ride was wondering how much did it cost you to transform the Ride?😍

Hey sir! My name is Andrew! FXTi is so legit! I recently had the thought of a Wrx swap. I have a 15 fxt, and was thinking if I get a 15 Wrx it’ll be simpler since they share a very similar motor. Or is it the same entire swap as what you did? Thank you for your time!

Did you use the stock ECU?

I so want to do this to my 2017 Forester! Sleeper, practical vehicle, hiding a group B racer. How many hours/$ did it take to do the full conversion? Something you would do again? Offer as a service? Too bad Subaru never offers fun performance versions to their cars in the linup. I'm in my 50s, just want a sleeper go fast buggy that wont draw any attention. Heck, I'd even take a H6 swap out of the outback. It's sad that all you get is the 2.0 XT and 2.5 for engine options... I blame the EPA/Govt for taking all the fun out of cars.

the wheel color doesn't go with the blue maybe some brighter color for the wheels and it will stand out better great job either way looks good

Lmk when i can biy this off you 😂

how is the intercooler cooled tho?

Did you swap the trans
