EA-52 what a beast

I love where the ignition leads go through the mounting bracket for the air cleaner and note the exhaust ports one for each cylinder

Yep, ever seen a VW flat four? The subi donk is a direct rip off of the old german powerplant, only the japanese went one further to make it water cooled...

I wonder how many horses this one had? One for each cylinder??? :p
