yes , there was only one way to find out! looks like i'll be staying stock, the dis2 is out of my price range for now. actually itys almost as much as my entire build

Thanks, Josh! Well today will be purchasing a lot of stuff. I found an ESL board from Kimo, and I may decide to run that after awhile. My plan is to use the RobTune setup to get everything broken in, or until this motor needs to be replaced. Then when I decide to do a bigger turbo, and either 850cc...

Legacy777 wrote:Cool. Yeah, let us know if it works.

no go, had to return it, only has one coil trigger.....

I'd start by pulling the plugs and see what they look like. You could try the stock plugs and see if that makes a difference. If the colder plugs aren't reaching their self-cleaning temp even when into boost they could be carboned up. ok, thanks, i'll have a set of the stock and colder plugs on han...

well I have a misfire at idle... after a long hard pull, ( 13% grade for 1.5 miles) at 8psi boost, it seems I have developed a bad mis at idle and reduced power overall. I pulled plug wires one at a time, and unplugged injectors one at a time neither seem to be a problem, no smoke, no engine noise. ...

It's a Voltex rear diffuser for a 02-07 GD WRX/STi and it fit perfectly. The front lip is an 06-07 STi Limited V lip off eBay. Also fit perfectly just needed the ends trimmed off a little bit. Ordered a turbo front bumper, I hate the look of my ls front bumper.... and got 03 outback side skirts, I`...

ok, i'm just trying to stiffen the front end up, lot of body creaks and pops in the front end/cowl area

I guess i should have done that before. I was looking at swapping out for a foredter xt intercooler. The wrx intercooler is a shoehorn fit!

dscoobydoo wrote:What year intercooler? The 06-07 fit with the GC8 OEM STB, but the 02-05 hit the firewall so pretty much nothing fits.

2003 . Hmm...

Thanks. Where are you located?

B.c. canada

Trying to find out fitment for my legacy with a tdo4 and erx intercooler.. what will fit?

In reviewing the instructions, I'm not so sure this will work with the stock ECU. http://www.msdperformance.com/WorkArea/DownloadAsset.aspx?id=15032386409 I have a mallory hyfire6 to try. The boost retard is integrated in the box. Just add a map sensor. Hoping i can get this wired up. If i do ill p...

My 92 ls


2.2 auto with td04/tmic install , wrx brakes, forester suspension , outback rims 225/6016 toyo rubber. couldnt afford a wrx, so I made my own version

Just thinking about a msd 2 controller on my 22na turbo swap. They list a timing controller on the site for use with the box. Will this work on my sube to retard timing a bit? http://www.msdperformance.com/Products/RPM/Timing_Controls/Timing_Controls/8762_-_Boost_Timing_Master_for_use_with_MSD_Ignit...

Nice!! What front and rear lip?

I found a good number for 94 ss rocker covers stocked in usa. On my canadian epc

I cut some off the flange . Flipped it upside down.

Mine is loud like that too. But it is in top notch condition. I figured it would be quieter like a wrx. I contribute mine being load to 3" intake and 3" exhaust

It didnt do much more than idle!

I have installed in mine red injectors from a 1998 subaru outback 2.5 dohc, they seem to be working perfectly. I tried some yellow ones from a jdm 2.0 tubo motor... the black smoke and raw fuel out the tailpipe was terrible! make you choke and burn your eyes!

Bratman is talking about the heads themselves. The coolant jackets on the heads don't match the coolant jackets on the closed deck block. If you wanted the correct coolant ports, you'd have to modify the heads i.e. open up the coolant ports on the heads to get the proper coolant flow. I don't know ...

That's usually a problem the newer heads has, i.e. usdm wrx and up. I don't think I have seen any older heads with the spark plug crack. I think all the heat causes it. It rattled under load preturbo and after turbo, I thought just carbon buildup.. when I got it I did plugs among other things right...
