Todays teardown is the very first after my staycation while my wife and I had our second child. Everyone is doing great! I wanted to start off with a bang and I decided this Subaru EJ255 was the perfect core for tonights video. This engine is a 2.5L DOHC Turbo Boxer 4 cylinder. Makes about 250hp in stock form though most get modified. Iterations of these engines came in a TON of subarus including the Baja, Outback XT, Legacy GT, WRX and Forester. I cover some common failure points along the way but the situation that led to this engines demise could have been prevented as most of my teardowns prove. Why am I doing this? My name is Eric and I own and run a full service auto salvage facility in the Saint Louis Missouri area, and part of our model is tearing down blown engines and salvaging good parts from them. I hope you enjoy this teardown and as always, I love all of the feeback, comments and even the criticism. Catch you on the next one! -Eric
