The optimist you are!

Bizzump! Anyone else install this device? Thoughts/comments? Almost a year later and my lazy arse haven't installed it. Better yet, I'm going to the garage now to look for it. Hope I didn't lose it.

Yeah, I'm thinking it shouldn't take to long as well. I was thinking of some 'L' shaped metal piece with a rubber piece inside. I dunno! I don't mind the drive or stopping down. I like driving and knowing that 'Scrappy' can take such a drive. He's ready for it. It is an intercooler that used to come with the Ludespeed turbokit for the Impreza.

4.44 gear ratio. Nice! Maybe I'll own one of these someday. Try this site out: http://subarujusty.proboards20.com/ I hang out here from time to time.

Congrats and welcome to the board. Nice write up and glad to see you tackle something like this....on the street. Make me look bad. I think I am going to work on 'something' today since 'Scrappy' is in the garage. There is a thing or two I can install on it. People like you inspire me to get my arse back in the garage and type less.

Bump! I am still having this problem. Trying to get a piece to hold the intercooler up without having to bolt to the intercooler itself. The back of the intercooler is hitting the base of where the tire would sit. You can hear it hitting during startup. I'm trying to be creative and think of some type of something that has rubber or something soft to hold the intercooler up itself.

How the hell did I miss this? That header looks aweful. BoostedBalls, I expected better from you. It looks horrible with all the bling shine and everything. You need to make the exhaust diameter smaller so it can spool that turbo up quicker, which is too big as well. Send me a PM. I'll take that setup off of your hands for cheap before you embarass yourself on the dyno. Do the same thing again with a smaller turbo and smaller diameter piping of the header. I have the $$ for the setup. Perhaps you can use it to go to the movies or something. What do you say? Let's make a deal. J/K man! Looks great! BTW: I am wondering what will be done about your power steering lines on the passenger side near the header.

Simple solution! Do what the guys have done here that are running in the high 14's. At this point you either a: Install a stronger clutch or b: get a tranny cooler and get your automatic to shift quicker. All that is left is a stronger fuel pump and a 50-60hp shot from a wet nitrous kit. That is it! If I could run a low 13 second 1/4 mile in my Outback Sport with this combo and the Outback was running high 15s without the nitrous, I'm sure a lighter EA82T that is running high 14's could be running in the 12's with a 50-60hp shot of nitrous. Have fun!

I think you are mistaken. What are the specifications of the turbo Justy? Early models where carbed from what I have read. And if anyone would be considering an engine swap, I would think the earlier carbed model would suit the bill well. It was between 1600-1750lbs curb weight if I remember right.

Nice!

This is a really nice exhaust setup. Make some $$$ and offer to sell these. Everyone here isn't cheap.

Looks like this may be heading somewhere. I'm one of those guys who would not dropping some $$$ for something like this. My turbo/header/exhaust modifcation was almost 3X the cost of my car. So yes, I'm down for this.

Try eliminating the exhaust all together and just have the downpipe. I drove like this on my way to an exhaust shop to have a custom exhaust made and installed. Now that was LOUD!

D-Cal, My question is, are you capable at cracking the EA82 (specifically the turbo model) code? If so, PM me and perhaps we can talk offline. Thanks!

Can someone explain to me why todays tuners that tune the late model Subaru ECU can not tune an old school Subaru's ECU?

4 of 4 here. All daily drivers! All run and are licensed/insured to drive wherever you want to take them, near or far. Thank Gawd!

Are you sure about this? Have you installed (or know of somone who has installed) a 300ZX maf on their 1.8ltr turbo without any problems?

Nice cheap dyno runs! Yeah, thos AFR look scary on the top end. Good number without an intercooler. Hopefully, your tune is nice and safe especially because you have no intercooler. Be carefule driving around like that. What octane are you using?

I like the wheels. The body seems straight. What's with the intercooler?

Nice setup! I want to see the front mount.....from the front.

Anyone thought of swapping the 4.44 gears into an auto?

<----------Waits for the day to know what 12psi+ feels like.

You are one crazy S.O.B! I have yet to drive my RX turbo in the snow. It may be interesting.

Why won't he use the work truck?

*Bump* I'm bumping this post up as a reminder to some people why they should have in intercooler installed on their turbocharged Scoobies.
