Have a set came off a good running Ej22T. Located near Wiles-Barre PA, zip 18621.
Asking $250 OBO for pair. email me at bewranch@epix.net

Just wondering if anyone has swapped any late model, tuneable by open source software ECU's onto an early engine? I am hoping to build a basic bottom end that I can tune, then adding forced induction to it after it is funtional. I would likt to work with an EJ22 engine without using the turbo setup ...

Is it possible to reflash or tune a 2000 NA Subaru Legacu with any of the open source type software?

OK,


Back at it last night. Re-checked many of the hoses, cleaned all solenoids and checked them for operation, traced all lines to components and they were where they should be. I think solenoid box is OK now.


Took off MAP sensor hose, replaced sensor with gage and only getting about 5 PSI ...

This thread seems a little out of my league, but I'm gonna ask a stupid question that you probably already checked.

Is there a fuel cutoff on that engine? I had a vacuum(or intake?) leak that was making me put out too much boost and it would die at full throttle like it had no fuel, and it was ...

I had this problem or similar to this problem a few months ago, found out that my fuel pump was going bad. when i eased up on throttle i could get up there, but if i just floored it, the car would pop, sputter, and die.. i tried everything to figure out what was goin on, even had others look at it ...

Unfortunately, this is not OBD2. It is early subaru.
I think EVOScan will work with it nut am verifying now.

Just checked fuel pressure.

It sits at 46 PSI with engine off.

Starting up, it runs at 38 PSI at idle.
At High RPM, it runs up as high as 50 PSI.
Under mild boost, about 46 PSI.
When it is acting up, it never drops under 44 PSI.
Those numbers are right to what the liberty manual says they should ...

Here is an update.

I checked the boost gage location, and it was for the vacuum booster, but there was no valve and it was open to the intake.

After further applying thottle and brake, I was able to get it to read as much as 8 lbs boost. Guess I wasn't loading it hard enough.

That still leaves my ...

I've got my boost gauged hooked into the vacuum line which goes to the pressure sensor. Just T-ed off that line, since it's actually what the ECU "sees", regardless of what the turbo is doing.

Since I am new to Subarus, what do you typically see as far as vacuum at idle and when would you see ...

I have an EJ20R from a 1996 Legacy GTB in a race car. I have run many events and have been working the bugs out of it. I got to an event where I could really open it up, and started having some bogging issues. I had no gages in it but a tach and CEL. I did some testing tonight and here is what I ...

That is rubber from the helmet rubbing spare tire in the trunk before the event. Just cosmetic...

What's the intercooler set-up on it?

How about this?

I was wondering if anyone is running any data recording software with the EJ20R and what cable from Evoscan is compatible with it?

Has anyone found a way to piggyback this unit (3-PLug style ECU)?

Thanks,
Steve

It appears to be a difference in starter position to flywheel location and/or tooth count. Power was to the solenoid...

I was wondering if someone can help here. I have a JDM EJ20R motor and have it mated to a 1994 Legacy FWD transmission. Just tried cranking it over tonight, and the starter is quite a ways away from the ring gear. The starter I am using as well as the flywheel are from JDM car. Would anyone know if ...
