CAN a swapped Subaru RS get through BAR? With iWire
There are a lot of WRX STI swapped Subaru's out there, and most likely iWire has had a hand in a lot of them. But since we last had Brian on a lot has changed. With the Cobb Green Speed changes, and the fact that all modern WRXs and STIs have a CAN bus, it is a lot more difficult to swap the engine and transmission now.
But since this is what they specialize in, this is exactly what iWire is working on now. Brian is trying to get his modern CAN bus STI swapped RS through California's BAR certification. Once they figure the process out, it will hopefully help with applying the process to other cars.
We also talk about all of the different build iterations that Brian's RS has been through, including trying to make an EZ36 6-Cylinder swap work with the help of a Haltech Standalone, and what went wrong.
