mdjdc Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I have tried several searches and I come up with "no matches". What are the best years for a direct fit 2.2 swap into a 2.5 car? I can't remember what the range of years is. Thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebugs Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Mike, You're kidding right? A 95 2.2 AUTO!!! is preferred because your Ypipe will work. (MUST HAVE EGR). 96, 97, 98 will work but you'll need the single port Ypipe from that engine. As usual a littel rubber hose plumbing work for VC breathers and maybe EVAP.

mdjdc Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 Dave: I was thinking that the 95 auto was the right one, but I couldn't remember. Now all I have to do is find one. Not too many in the JY's down here right now. Thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I was thinking the same thing as Dave - you're kidding right? You didn't mention what years as there are different phases but we can infer since you didn't question dave that you're talking about a 96-99 Outback. 95 automatic or 96-98 with a single port ypipe and make sure the engine has EGR there is no rhyme or reason to 96-98 having EGR or not, but most that i see around here do have EGR so lots of easy 96-98 options too.
