Josh, you are thinking of the ej20k manifold. Or the forester "ej20k in every way except for name" manifold. I have 2 ej20g manifolds (one from an impreza and the other from a legacy) and their throttle bodies are virtually identical to an ej22. So does this meant the 22t TB should fit? O...

IIRC, the new shape oil pan was introduced for cars with a twin scroll turbo. It was the twin scroll exhaust that didn't clear the old pan. The EJ255/EJ257 got the new pan, even though they didn't get the Twin scroll. Yes, if you use all the parts together, you can use the '09 pan. Just don't mix t...

Coil on plug conversion Bible - http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1192028&highlight=coil+on+plug+conversion I don't know for sure if the 09 pan will fit, though I suspect it will. I swapped the old style pan for an 06 STI one. I've heard that some aftermarket exhaust manifolds wo...

If you got a complete ej20g manifold I highly recommend using it. It has a more elegant PCV setup, idle air control is in a logical spot which doesn't take space around the turbo like the non turbo manifold. Matter of fact - the Subaru used that manifold in their rally cars for many years with the ...

Can I ask what about the 20g manifold is throwing you off? The only thing of any significance I can see off hand is the lack of egr, which doesn't make a big of difference to the gen 1 cars. Grab an m16x1.5 oil drain plug and plug the hole in the back of the driver's side head. My concerns were wit...

Welcome to the BBS. There are quite a bit of threads out there discussing some of the topics you raised. I would suggest checking out these for what others have experienced. The 25D heads can be used, but do have their own issues. The DOHC installation 'unspoken' details thread 2.5D swap or Franken...

If you're interested I have a set of heads from my ej22t/25D hybrid block that lost a rod They were built by delta cams. +1mm oversized stainless valves, reground cams for turbo, oil and water fittings for factory location turbo paid around 2500 for them asking 1000 + shipping. There's no signs of ...

I'm starting a ej22t hybrid build and was wondering if I could get some input on my planned setup and what I should use. I want to make 300-350whp and maybe more down the road (but this is the starting goal). I'm also trying to keep this a somewhat budget build (I know these hybrids can end up being...
