Swap leftovers

Not sure if this realistic or not just went off of what they sell on craigslist for in denver and subtracted a bit. All parts have around 110...

Re: Question of opinion, Blown head gasket ej20g

ok, thats great to know about the manifold, but now i have way to many questions regarding my engine management setup. To answer your question, The importer is selling the engine trans ecu and harness, which is why i thought it was very convient to be able to use that ecu. However, my problem is the...

Re: Question of opinion, Blown head gasket ej20g

Is the intake from the 20g going to cost me any power? if not that is the best news ive ever heard. Also the swap i found has the ecu so im going to run that instead of the rob tune,it should plug right in correct?

Re: Question of opinion, Blown head gasket ej20g

Alright, well its update time. This has become one hell of a bigger problem than i first imagined. So, disassembled the block and found a cracked cylinder. Then i took the heads and began disassembling them when i found a crack around the spark plug. So now i am starting from ground zero and i am le...

Re: Question of opinion, Blown head gasket ej20g

ya i mean ive owned the car for two years now and it would just sputter and die sometimes at idle. I always assumed it was the ecu because he was running a usdm 22t ecu on it. I do think i am going to be buying a longblock though after talking with some folks about all the possible damage that may h...

Question of opinion, Blown head gasket ej20g

So i have a jdm ej20g swapped into a legacy that i bought 2 years ago. The head gasket blew on my friend while he was borrowing my car. I do not know if he tried driving it or starting it after, but given his experience with cars it can be assumed. Also before the head blew, the car would sputter ou...
