I have had Subaru's and the North American engines aren't suitable for high performance use, and they are in no way cheap to replace (JDM / European are a different block / bottom end of the engine). I had a bearing spin in my WRX (a very common problem problem with the N/A engines) and I could put a 3.6 in my boxster for the same money as fixing that engine!
Needless to say no more Subaru's for me.
