My bugeye rs turning wrx

Just wanted to post these pics (thanks WRXCOUPE) of the engine that is going into my Bugeye RS "WRX swap". Brandon at AllPro in Alpharetta has been putting some hours to make this a bad a$$ ride for me. MAJOR PROPS TO ALLPRO!!!! And Big ups to Kingwrex, Liquid Force, Oneiguy and Slowsoul for the last pieces of the puzzle!!!
