Which discounts forged builds also so probably better to re start the thread and be clearer in what's being asked. Be useful to get people to state mods/remap/power etc engine spec if you want to obtain accurate info

if you tune an engine it increases the chances of failure, so this poll is a waste of time.

it needs to include standard engines only but even that means nothing as servicing mileage etc all have an effect.

the 2.5 has =documented problems with hg failure , this is fact google it or use and of the enthusiasts websites.

even subaru know about it but dont care.

Stop the spam guys. Take it to another thread. Lets keep this one on track lets face it subaru like us to constantly remove and re install engines. Why else would they fit bonnet hinges that open that far back !!

Get off the moral high ground you gimp. You call it arguing or spam, i prefer to call it public debate were facts come to light that are relevant to the thread subject.
Just because you start a thread doesn't mean you own it ! But in this case i will walk out the thread and close the door behind me. But before i do i will say i agree with tubby in that this "official" thread poll lacks clear and relevant options to be of much use, but thanks for trying.
