Gary'sLegacy04 Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 I'm interested in the posibility of installing a complete turbo kit. I've found kits for Impreza 2.5. I'd like to create a nice comfortable sleeper of a 4dr. Has anyone here seen or heard of availability of a turbo kit for the 04/ 2.5 NA motors yet? Will a kit for a Impreza fit into the Legacy? What about ignition upgrades for the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderhound Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Open Deck + Turbo = self destruct. Trade it in and get an 05' GT...debadge it and voila...sleeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blitz Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Word also has it that the 2.5 pistons were changed in '02 to a more fragile alloy/construction than previous. The earlier pistons could tolerate a small amount of incidental detonation, but the new part number will blow the top edge and ring land off with the slightest amount of det under boost.

Gary'sLegacy04 Posted May 5, 2005 Author Share Posted May 5, 2005 2 replies with negative responses. You don't have to tell me twice. First Subaru. This is good information to know. I guess it stands to reason that NOS is out of the question (<50 shot). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuBrat84 Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 You would need new everything.. block/heads/pistons/cams/ might as well find a 2.5 turbo (sti motor) to drop in it.. or just get a 2.5 turbo legacy and debadge it.. take a look at www.cobbtuning.com though.. if you got another 30-60 grand to put it in it you can have a pretty mean machine!

(goldfish) Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 block/heads/pistons/cams/ sounds a little extensive to get the job done. might as well find a 2.5 turbo (sti motor) to drop in it My brighton wagon's dream every night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subaru_styles Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 money wise + reliability + warranty= you are waaay better off trading it in towards an 05 legacy turbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
