Hey Guyph, I never realized at the time, I think your EJ25 was the later model with AVCS - no wonder it packed so much more of a punch than the EJ22. I've driven a few motors with avcs now and does seem to make a pretty noticeable difference!

Yep.. his engine was from a 99-00 Lancaster which is DOHC with AVCS on the inlet side. Also has a lot more efficient intake manifold. Shame someone else is getting good use out of it ;)

Has he joined up here?

I'm keen to see some hardcore offroading pics of this thing...

Not yet but hopefully not for long.

Owen works with Wagonman (John), so I'm sure we'll see more of this car again this summer. Not sure if it will be driven quite like the previous owner, so doubt it will be doing too much hardcoring ;)
