nowhereman007 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 I have a 1983 subaru brat and I want to swap my 1.8 out and put in a turbo motor. Can anyone tell me what years and makes will work. I haven't gotten the motor yet but when I start hunting it down it would help if I knew what years and makes will work. Any other advice would be great and appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comatosellama Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 EJ turbo? You're in for a lot more than I think you expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinky26 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 +1 for a lot of work to come if you choose to do that swap. An EA turbo would be less work, those turbos are not that reliable though, especially if they have been abused. How much more power do you really need? If you want a major improvement off the line just swap out the carb for a Weber, that will also improve the top end too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hsoj Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 That frankenmotor is powerful enough to wear the car out with out a turbo. An ej22 is quite the kicker by itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
