Thoughts on this EJ207 B4?

21 April 2016 - 04:02 PM

Hey all.

 

I'm looking at buying another B4.

 

One has popped up locally with a v7 sti transplant w/ vf30, pushing 200kw according to the dyno sheets. 

 

Would 200kw be a bit much from a 207/vf30 combo with the only mods being (as far as I can tell) 3inch TBE, silicone intake, and a tune. 

 

Chassis and gearbox have 240,000kms, will the B4 5sp be able to handle the power for much longer? are they as notorious as the wrx 5sp gearboxes?

 

Would the the stock sti top mount get enough flow through the relatively restrictive B4 scoop?

 

Cheers.
