The motor in my 2013 XT gave up on life this weekend. It only had 53k on it. I’m disappointed because I loved the car and took great care of it. Body is great, new bilsteins, all the options, low mileage, vf52.

2013 Forester XT Touring Mods: Interior Ortiz brothers gauge pod Defi White Racer boost gauge AEM UEGO A/F gauge Busted Finger logging cable Subaru Paddle Shifters Motor Cobb Accessport pro-tuned by Turbotek Ray VF52 Turbo Grimmspeed EBCS DW65C fuel pump Cobb catted downpipe...
So now I’m looking at replacing the whole motor. It’s being towed to AZP in Jersey tomorrow. Broke down on the jersey turnpike. Not sure which way to go here as I don’t want to throw good money after bad. I keep reading stories about people having their rebuilds fail. I’d love some input on engine replacement options and would consider something beefier than stock if I know it’ll last.
