I thought he was talking about the VQ. Either way...

But it hasn't been around since the 90s like you claimed.

The Subaru EJ engine is a series of automotive engines manufactured by Subaru and introduced in 1989, intended to succeed the previous Subaru EA engine. The EJ series is the mainstay of Subaru's engine line, with all engines of this series being 16-valve flat-4 horizontal, with configurations available for single-, or double-overhead camshaft arrangements (SOHC or DOHC). Naturally aspirated and turbocharged versions are available, ranging from 96 to 320 horsepower. These engines are commonly used in light aircraft, kit cars and engine swaps into air-cooled Volkswagens, but it's also popular as a swap into the wasserboxer engined Volkswagen Type 2. Primary engineering on the EJ series was done by Masayuki Kodama, Takemasa Yamada and Shuji Sawafuji of Fuji Heavy Industries, Subaru's parent company.

Please explain to me why you think this?

Here's link to a little reading material:

Because this car has an FA20, not an EJ. My WRX has an EJ.

The FA was based off the FB, but even then, completely different.


Next?

We removed the front cat and lowered the boost to 18PSI - We are out of MAF so didn't pull it all the way.

Going SD very soon.
