ok if your trying to make a non turbo 2.2 into a 2.2t its a bad isea in the first place and you only have 6 months to live.

its cheap, its EASY, and it makes alot of power but it will explode because its completly open deck, obviously your trying to do things the right way try and get a JDM 2.0t ...

Yeah of course.

So I would be able to get something like that from my engine right? With all the right parts of course.

Thanks you guys.

The problem is that a WRX motor or an STi motor are pretty hard to find here in Iceland and when you find one it's gonna be bloody expensive (3000$ at least).

And of course if I use online stores like ebay it will be really expensive due to the tolls and taxes and what not. All ...

The thing is I have a N/A EJ22 (European) engine and I was thinking about adding a turbo but I know it's not that easy. What parts exactly would I have to replace and is it stupid to try? Is it cheaper to buy a complete EJ20H?

Congratulations, it looks great. The jumps are incredible!










Er ekki málið að hafa smá eldri Legacy hitting á árinu?

A very old pic... The fogs are gone for now.

Why did nearly all American market cars from Japan from that era have that middle thing between the rear lights? I don't get it. Is it some sort of a safety feature or did they actually think it was beautiful? :roll:

Of course I'm from Europe and no cars have that here. That's probably why I don't ...

Didn't an Icelandic team prep and assist the Top Gear run to the North Pole?

My brother showed me the Formula stuff years ago. Pretty much nuts and awesome.

Yeah, that's right. Arctic Trucks did make the cars for Top Gear and their employees came along and helped Jeremy and friends a lot ...

Woooow, this will be so much fun! Good luck and have fun with this project.

for some reason I find myself being a Block hater

I suppose it is mere jealousy

*andrew now bothers to watch the clip*

yup, I was right, it's jealousy. he is living my dream

and despite the fact that it likely took a bunch of takes to get that all, it remains that everything he does is damn ...

The definition of insanity is attempting the same thing over and over again expecting a different result each time :lol:

That's what makes it awesome!

What engine is in the lifted Legacy?

Sorry, but I don't have a clue about the engine... I think it's an American V8 of some sort, they are very ...

This man is f-ing awesome!

So... You guys probably know nothing about Icelandic car culture. - Which is understandable. Icelanders are crazy about cars. We have rallycross, rally, quartermile drag races, glacier offroad and formula offroad.

Formula Offroad is a great sport invented in Iceland in which offroad cars with ...

Wow that´s one of the coolest Legacies I've ever seen!

What does the parking poll do?

So yeah, my name is Sindri and I'm from Reykjavík which is the capital city of Iceland. I'm 18 years old and a student so I don't have a good and steady income but everything i earn goes to rebuilding my lovely Legacy. This is a build Journal for it. It is a 1991 2.2 GX European Spec Legacy. I'm ...

More here in Iceland. Which is really a surprice because dispite the name it snows seldom here up north.

Lets just say i was going to do the same thing as you with my 94gt wagon non-turbo. i payed like 125 for my turbo and pipes and stuff then i got into everything else... Such as oil lines, adapter, silicone pipes, ecu, and just the skill to do it all. I finally just gave up ...

You need minimum

Borla header style header
custom uppipe.
bigger injectors and/or FMU(rrfpr)
piggyback like a PP6 or Emanage
intercooler


Thats JUST for 4-6 psi...

Afterthat you need to replace the pistons for any sense of reliability.

I'm just trying to get some information out of you guys, I think most of you know more about this subject than I do and therefore can you probably help me. I can find the parts myself but I need some information regarding what I should be worried about when I insert the turbo.

So, I'm getting a turbo from a GT Impreza (EDM) for about 200 usdollars (15.000 Icelandic Kronur). The problem is that I don't know alot about this kind of thing and I'm far from being a mechanic myself.

The question is: What should I do to my engine and drivetrain so it will cope with all the ...

I've got a GX 2.2! It's a 1991 model and I think the GX's are for European market only, am I right? Correct me if I'm wrong. There are a few GX's here in Iceland but most of them are dying from rust, just like all old cars in Iceland. Not a good ...

Wooooooooooow!

I think that´s the cleanest Legacy Iv'e ever seen! Very beautifully modified as well. Thumbs up!

Welcome, I´m new too and the funny part is that I´m also from Iceland. Beautiful Leggy you've got there pal. Any further future plans?
