4.11 AWD Dual Range in Legacy!
Looks like a pretty clean build and install. Good job. 4.11 would be really nice.

Blue smoke from my exhaust
I would say valve stem seals before the rings. They may be a little dried up but the rings may be a little gummed up too. You might want to try a little motor flush though it like seafoam and then see if that helps. Don't know but it is worth a try.

Spark plug intake clearance?
You will most likely need an aditional extension with a swivel(universal) attached to it. They are a bit tricky.

Reduce turbo lag on JDM EJ20TT (EJ20H)?
Jerry DeMoss replied to Kilroy's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXNo they are sequential like on any other tt setup. Like in a tt supra or tt rx7 . Until a certain amount of boost is attained in the first turbo it will not let the second tubo see much exhaust gasses at all . That is why it is called sequentail because they are in sequence.

ea81 pcv stuff
Looks good to me. Does pretty much the same thing as the one on the left.

Higher Compression increases Thermal Effieciency... But Why?
Higher compression ratio is yeilds higher temps inside the combustion chamber by decreasing the "squish area" inside dome to piston interface area. Therefor requiring the higher octane/high test stuff because it has a higher flash point. The lower octane like 85 or 87 would predetonate before the piston reached top dead center on a higher compression engine. I hope that makes some sense.

Reduce turbo lag on JDM EJ20TT (EJ20H)?
Jerry DeMoss replied to Kilroy's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXSome better dp's will help with a little bit of lag aiding in the spool time of the turbo or a better air inlet for both the turbos as well. That engine was never offered over here in the states but I have a few engine bits from that dual turbo engine. Also you may want to try upping the boost a little on the first turbo and maybe that would help it pull a little harder till the second turbo kicks in?

2.2 head swap Looking for InFo
You are better off getting a ej22turbo block and puting wrx heads on it. Also what are you doing in the north pole with a turbo subie? I grew up in Soldotna/Kenai peninsula and I haven't seen many people going that route.

2.2 coolant manifold
Jerry DeMoss replied to erik litchy's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI would get a different water pipe. If you need one I have a couple.

reduce intake manifold heat soak.
Jerry DeMoss replied to quad4tt's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXSearch grimmspeeds website. You will find the gaskets you are looking for that are quite thick. http://www.grimmspeed.com/

Eric's trail wagon build, 56K b/w!
Very cool looking wagon. The hammered finish on your rims is nice. I used that same paint on my old rusty roll around toolbox I have in my garage after some minor sanding and prep work. I have had the toolbox painted that way for over a year and it takes abuse very well.

SeaFoam in a Manual Trans?
I would go for it. Drive it around for a day or two under normal load and then drain it and fill it up with some fresh gear oil. I think it would only do good stuff for your trans.
-
plugs unplugged ?
There are quite a few plugs on many different subarus that are not used. Don't bother looking for a place to plug them in cause there probly isn't a spot.

Turbo question
It probably would be wise to rotate the center section of the turbo down some to let the oil return flow a little better. Less chance for oil coking after a hot run also if you don't let it cool down.

broke timing belt on 99 Forester HELP !!
Jerry DeMoss replied to jimrichard's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXVery easy to bend valves on that engine. Where are you located?

Looking really nice! Looks kinda cool with the back raised up like that.

The Gutless Imp?
Jerry DeMoss replied to MorganM's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXDon't forget that the '97 ej22 is single port exhaust compared to the earlier dual port phase 1 ej22. No doubt that is shouldn't be that bad but maybe it needs some tlc.
