Engine is TOAST!!!

I was getting on the highway about 20 minutes ago and out of nowhere it sounded like marbles inside my engine banging around

So I turned off the very next exit and it got louder and louder... I barely made it back to my shop.

It has little or no power when I try to accelerate.

Sounds like I need a new motor.

Maybe I can do a full turbo setup finally!

sounds like you either snapped valve or a valve spring maybe ditched a lifter or a connecting rod who knows id say it might not be a total loss but def in need of a rebuild

I think I'm just going to rebuild the stock motor.

Spend my $$$ on my 04 STi instead.

Eveyone is going to freak out when they hear the price, but no corners were cut and it's rebuilt back to factory specs.

Total was: $2150
