idosubaru Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 all 95 automatics have EGR. 95 manuals don't. i've switched stock EJ22 and EJ25 ECU's multiple times and noticed no difference. granted i wasn't trying to hit rev limiter. i was at canton pull a part saturday, thanks, got some good stuff! there's an EJ25 in a wrecked 03 outback - so presumably the motor is good. get that block and bolt your heads to it, 25+ hp bump for only $125 plus headgaskets? sell the heads for $100 and it barely costs anything.

Bushwick Posted December 29, 2014 Author Share Posted December 29, 2014 (edited) all 95 automatics have EGR. 95 manuals don't. i've switched stock EJ22 and EJ25 ECU's multiple times and noticed no difference. granted i wasn't trying to hit rev limiter. i was at canton pull a part saturday, thanks, got some good stuff! there's an EJ25 in a wrecked 03 outback - so presumably the motor is good. get that block and bolt your heads to it, 25+ hp bump for only $125 plus headgaskets? sell the heads for $100 and it barely costs anything. Hey Gary. Thanks for the tip. Had 2nd surgery earlier this year and disc is herniated AGAIN for a 3rd time. Doc says it'll need fused, so definitely can't do any engine swaps in the foreseeable future unfortunately. To be honest, the engine runs fairly nice as-is so I doubt I'd wanna tear into it (or have someone do the work/swap that is) unless forced to at this point. I've got a bunch of weight in the car and trying to merge with traffic doing 70+ takes stomping on it and holding the accelerator for what seems like forever. Was thinking the timing advance would be helpful for a little more pep, but it's a not a deal breaker at this point. BTW, be VERY careful if you venture up to the Akron P-A-P as the female manager there is making up her own prices despite what the website states. I e-mailed their headquarters and acted like a "potential" customer and asked about a price on something. Their answer matched the website. I told them what the manager was doing (charging for more stuff when it's actually part of the assembly list price) and was ignored. Made 2 more follow-up e-mails and was ignored AGAIN! So, be careful and double-check pricing before going into any of their locations in case this is a bait-switch deal.

86BRATMAN Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I've had the same thing happen to me at the Charlotte NC PAP, tried to charge me 80 bucks for an intake manifold back over the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
