Afaik what Mick is referring to is this:
The most reliable budget solution being a (eg RSS) stock short (or long) block.
Like Owen got and outputting 250atw with all the right supporting mods and tune
Fresh engine with reliable factory tolerances

And definitely don't need to downsize your engine volume, there's no substitute for cubes.
You need to read some 2.5 built engine threads A good place to start is brainy's. Do you log your car?

Alexei - you serious?
Sorry to say but pretty much everything you said up there is crap
I agree if OP only wants 200 awkw then a stock bottom end with head studs will be fine. But given he has just committed to over 12k (guaranteed - I know nori and the ads guys) then your comments don't make sense. He's already committed to forged pistons and rods (thus the "noisy" comment is irrelevant)
Machining and tolerances are the most important thing to get right in the EJ motors, and deschelle are one of few to have it down pat.
And I'd take a destroked and closed deckef 2.5 any day of the week.
