I'd have it off you myself mate but a bit short at the mo. Free bump for a quality block.

Not alot just put your heads and ancilleries on and youd be good to go, but it would be worth investing in a good turbo,... injectors and getting your heads worked abit to get the best from this block.. I didnt think they made 2.5 in a cdb, but I might be wrong....

You get a shed load more TQ and massively reduced lag but it doesnt rev as much.

I went from a 2.0 with a 18g to a 2.5 with 20g and love it.

Dependant on turbo running you may have to think about box also(sorry dont know your spec)

503/526 standard location md series turbo, you will find it very hard to achieve that on a 2.0

at the moment ive got a 18g on standard sti 5 internals.
i like to push the revs up. so im thinking a 2.0 build or 2.1 stroker would be better of.

Yours was not the same spec, the liners in this block are completely different to what was fitted to your block.
