The loosened bolt seems to be caused by the added magnets on the crank pulley... They unbalanced it, with caused a little vibration loosening the bolt.

So on my next pulley, i'll have it ballanced after magnets are installed. + locktite + extra torque..

Before the very first start, you only have to crank the engine like 10 seconds with ignition unconnected.. tu let some oil pressure build.. Then you start it. Some will let the engine rev at different RPMS for 15min then change the oil.. then drive the car normally. I didn't do that.. (forgot) ... b...

bore is the same, build process not the same..

you don't want na pistons into a turbo engine. I asked the Director of Quality insurance of Subaru Canada and he strongly recommended not to do so.

Please, replace your fuel !! or at least buy some "fuel restorer" or something .. hehe valve sound was probably the Lifters, and by now they got filled with oil. so no sound anymore. For your weak performance, verify that all injectors are properly connected and working.. also verify the p...

forged pistons slaps for sure.. at idle and bellow 1000F .. but .. i guess it's the price to pay ! hehe

CP Pistons required .0035" cleancance instead of .001" oem . Other Forged pistons can require up to 0.005" clearance !

you don't want to reuse used pistons. and for the price of OEM ej22T pistons + pins + locks + ring set , you're better with a custom set ! and that way, you could rise your NA compression a little and get some extra power :) you just don't need to order 2618 forged pistons, stick with the 4032 and y...

You're not very far ;) , you just forgot to match the verbe tense with the subject.

wrong - "Je pense que je comprendre"
good - "Je pense que je comprend"
better - "Je pense avoir compris" .. "je pense que j'ai compris" :)
