So my 13 STI (pic related) has gotten engine knock at 38,000.

Returning to stock will be a giant hassle, im not a wrench monkey i live in nyc i dont even have a garage. So how do you suggest i return it to stock genius?

>>17521762
Tow it to a shop you fool! You're going to spend alot more with a full engine rebuild

>>17521765
How would i return the tune to stock? Would inhave to take it to some guy who tuned it? Or could i do it myself with the acess port?

I did x work and it broke my engine.

Should I do x work engine on a new engine or will it cause problems?

How do people like you remember to breath?

>>17521773
Yes, take to guy who tuned it and pray he can return rest of car stock

>>17521774
My thought process was that the stock engine just could not keep up with the excess power.

>>17521787
How much extra power? Many factors you could have been given a bad tune

>>17521789
I dont have the exact numbers on me right now but around 350-360. The car is insanely fast, the subaru dealer was impressed. Its been my daily for almost a year now, i drive at low rpms but the other day decided to do something different and beat the shit out of the car on the highway. Then i heard a pop and the knock noise began.

>>17521804
Did you tell dealer about all the mods? You fucked up big time taking them a modded car for warranty work

>>17521810>>17521810
The dealer never ran through my car or did any paper work. I just told them the problem and they advised me on what i could do. They said the tune wasnt stock which was the major reason. But i can take it to another dealer.

>>17521816
So they didn't know about the other shit, just the tune they scanned for?

>>17521823
They didnt do any sort of scan, they asked if i had a tune and i said yes then they popped the hood and saw the mods. There was no writing down of anything. My question is if i take the tune back to stock, would they cover the repair? As the modifications didnt really cause the engine knock.

>>17521839
Doesn't matter, they see mods as excuse to void warranties, return to stock tune and replace mods to stock parts

>heavily modifying a car before the warranty is up

Holy shit you are dumb.

>>17521850
I see where your getting at, but i dont have any of the stock parts, aside from stock suspension parts. My original question was never answered though, woukd i be able to get a cobb or IAG motor to replace the stock engine and still be able to throw in the same mods? Since id have to get an engine made specifically for the sti. I know id have to retune. And sorry if im frustrating, i love cars but i was never good at the real technical stuff.

>>17521839

>As the modifications didnt really cause the engine knock.

That's where you're wrong, increasing power on stock internals always carry's the risk of engine damage.

Especially with how weak the ring lands are on stock sti pistons.

>>17521865
just replace the longblock you fuckin scrub

>>17521865
fuck off moron

this is literally b8 tier at this point

everyone has given you options
take them and fuck off

>>17521864
Fuck you, wheres your race car?

>>17521871
Hey dickhead no ones answered my original fucking question. I dont give a fuck about the money. Would i be able to replace the engine and still put the same modifications?

>>17521881
why, IN THE FUCK NOT MORON

ITS THE SAME FUCKING ENGINE

FUCK OFF NIGGER FAGGOT

In the shop where it should be until we take it out to the track. Modifying a new car with a intact warranty is nigger-tier dumb, you fucking retard.

>>17521903
At least you answered my question you fucking dingus. i bet you stay in your basement masturbating to pictures of your adopted 4 year old african niece. Then you drive your shitbox3000 to your shitty job that only pays you enough to buy rent and slowly scrounge together the pennies needed to fix your shitheap of a whip.

>>17521920
have fun turning left, faggot

>>17521929
More turning than you'll do with a dead engine. :^)

>>17521926
go the fuck back to jalopnik

you literally had to ask 4chan if mods would fit the same engine they came off of

and you cant even comprehend how that makes YOU the retard

wew

>>17521865
>i dont have any of the stock parts
Did you sell them?

>>17521926
>hey does these mods fit the same fucking engine that i have removed them from?

>REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>17521920
Youll never feel the rush of dipping it through nyc highways on a saturday morning at 3am downshifting and apexing through every turn bumping to gucci mane on full blast smoking a blunt with a bad bitch by your side... why tf i want a stock car when my shit kills the parking lot everytime i pull up. Its my car, not yours. Ill do whatever tf i want to it at whatever time i want.

>>17521950
OP you type like a child

>admitting to being from NYC

>>17521738
Part it out, the parts buyers do all the work. And when you are down to the shell, it's worth good money for the VIN.

>retard asks for help
>gets help
>called a retard in the process
>takes it personally

Yep you're a real winner op. Parents must be proud you ruined a new car before it even hit 50 thousand miles.

>>17521936
How the fuck am i supposed to know that a completely different company that has no relation to subaru makes engines that are "1:1 identical" as you say

>>17521950
>I'll do whatever I want to it

No, YOU won't. You'll take it to someone who knows how and you'll pay them. Because you don't know shit.

Yeah, I also won't know the feeling of getting my car impounded because I'm a dumb nigger who drives 50mph over the speed limit on pedestrian roads. You're a dumb nigger who heavily modifies cars that still have warranties on them, then bitches when their "mods" kill the car and the dealer won't cover it.

Call me when you can go over 200mph and not break the law, princess. ;)

Looks like plenty of room is available on your street.

>>17521970
I have no parents im a grown ass man. I bought this car with my hard earned money. Im not a fucking gearhead like you niggas masturbating to motortrend laptimes. I never said i knew everything about cars. You guys getting butthurt over a novice asking questions?

>>17522002
Thats not my street, i live in the bronx in an apartment. No tools or anything so i have to take it to people who know what theyre doing.

>>17522023
Where do you park then?

Man, neck yourself. The levels of stupidity here are too much.

The side of the street of course, id love to do all the work on my car but i have no time nor do i have the resources or space.

>>17522054
Lmfao. Beach Ridge isnt a redneck tarmac you dumbshit.

>>17521865
>but i dont have any of the stock parts
You're a stupid asshole.

>>17522064
Im not whining, i know what i did. I was literally asking a simple question since i just came back from the dealer. But just because i dont know how to dissasemble my engine and put it back together doesnt mean im pants on head retarded. Your just an asshole with a superiority complex who thinks its essential to know how to do everything yourself. Do you even live in nyc? Im not some rich white guy with a mortgage, not everyone has a drive way and garage. Ill change my oil sure, minor repairs myself but you expect everyone to know about technical shit like replacing a fucking engine block? Grow the fuck up this isnt 2nd grade where you have the best pokemon cards. Idgaf about how much you think you know about cars. Your just an asshole who likes to shit post and masturbate.

>>17522099
Fuck you, i sold them so what?

You're okay, OP

>>17522100
You are dumb.

You heavily modified a car without even a sliver of knowledge of vehicles. You are willfully ignorant.

Kill yourself.

>>17522109
A common rule is that you never sell the original copy of something if you change something. If you mod a video game you back up the original files in case something breaks. If you modify a car, you keep the original parts around so you can replace them if something goes wrong with you car. That being said, never ask questions like this on 4chan and expect a simple answer.

I feel bad for that mazda in the background

in short, yes

in long

no point in buying a shortblock if youre going to pay someone to assemble the heads to the block, which is like $1500 in labor alone. Assembled longblock taken to a tuner

I don't know that your head is any good either since you were fuckin forcefeeding it to bejeezus with little to no knowledge on how these motors, or really any motor work.

All-in your full motor swap is going to hit you up for $4000

Is it going to be worth the money? Fuck yeah.

Also if you did all of this without the Cobb AP youre retarded. Most external wastegate setups are worse than stock for the car too.

Yes you should be back on the road in two weeks start to finish with a competent tuner shop.

>>17521738
if you just had some sick ass rims and a catback and a bov, of course you would have a case for a warranty repair of knock. but youve done some major modification on stock internals like a fucking squid, so youve all but thrown your warrenty away for your entire powertrain.

>>17526412
If i am going to be buying a whole new engine, is it worth it to even get the same kind of engine? I barely modified this one, it shouldn't have had any problem if it was well designed. What would be a better choice of engine for around the same price?

>>17521839
>. My question is if i take the tune back to stock, would they cover the repair?
Probably not. They may have even entered the data into the system and now no dealer will do the work under warranty.

>>17521762
>complains about not being able to have work done under warranty
>voided warranty with work he could not undo in case of this scenario
