Re: Cutting at 3k RPM, Vacuum Leak?

Ok boys. I've been reading this forum so much that it rolls through my brain before I go to sleep. Man....I never thought I'd learn so much about subaru. I did a ECU test and came up with codes 23 and 49. After searching the site I found this : http://bbs.legacycentral.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=5...

Re: Cutting at 3k RPM, Vacuum Leak?

That link you posted was broken turbo. I have replaced my TPS when I replaced the entire TB from a NA Legacy. Maybe the TPS is reading something wrong still. I can do the TPS test but I really don't think that's the issue.

Did u have the same issue as I did Turbo?

Re: CEL came on, fuel cut with any boost

I have been having the same issue and code. Here's a link to a very similar issue. Seems the ecu was the blame in this instance. Let me know what you find out, I could use some help too.

Now when I start the car it Idles at 3k and then when I drive it still cuts out at 3,000 rpm I have -20 at idle on my Gauge and it reads around 7 psi when it cuts out Please he...

Re: Cutting at 3k RPM, Vacuum Leak?

Pulled everything off today. Found my problems I believe The F-pipe breather was disconnected at the block. That sucker is hard to reach! Probably was causing my boost loss. Disconnecting my TB now. Draining the coolant first. After examining the replacement TB I can see the factory paint marks whic...

While driving home from the shop last night I could hear a fairly loud whooshing sound coming from around my turbo/intake area. I have de-snorkeled, coffee-canned, stock filter box, td04. 1.) Is this noise normal with these mods or is it the the leak i think it is? 2.) Are there replacement springs ...

Re: Cutting at 3k RPM, Vacuum Leak?

Just changed the oil and noticed some heavy whooshing sounds. I'm guessing its a leak on the compressor side between the TB and the IC. 1.) These are my questions, I know legacy777 told me that the NA EJ22 TB will work with my car but can I use the NA TPS with my ecu? 2.) does a leak cause this quic...

Here's a pic of my current install. I have been hearing whooshing sounds which leads me to think its a leak on the intake side. Picked up a used ej22 NA Throttle Body. Will the NA TPS work hooked up to my ej22t ecu? Okay. Let me know if y'all think of anything. I'm gonna search for this leak. And ye...

Okay. So here's my issue. I installed a TD04 from a fellow legacy central user and a 06 TMIC. I used the Samco y-pipe and cut it to fit with the exhaust tube per other install posts. Everything seems to be hooked up but the 90 degree silicon coming from the compressor outlet could be better. Im goin...
