TD05 installed, now I have compressor surge

I finally got around to installing my new TD05-16G. Everythings hooked up right (i think) and Im running 9-10 psi. When I let off the gas it sounds like a rally car; the bypass valve makes a fluttering noise. Its the stock bpv, and I know a few people here have a similar setup. Any ideas of whats ca...

I also have the usdm wrx intercooler setup. I kept the a/c and used both inlets. I made an adapter which allows me to plumb the stock bypass valve back to the intake. Its essentially the same thing as the ones you can buy, but it points towards the passenger side. If someone can host the pics I have...

td05-16g - Where to buy?

It seems like a year ago these were easy to come by, now I'm having a heck of a time finding one, now that I have the money :roll: Anybody know where I can find one or does somebody here have one for sale?

Thanks,
-Jim

I just did a similar swap with the EJ22t in my 95 Impreza. I paid $2100 for the engine, x-member, (almost) complete wiring harness, ecu, wrx downpipe/turbo/intercooler setup. I also had to get the legacy radiator, coolant resevoir, cooling fans, swaybar, a few sensors, and some other little things. ...

why only 96 or earlier?I'm talking about 02' + wrx's.if I change the turbo to a wrx td04 and then use the wrx intercooler then I would have the right angle right?I know you need the early 93-96 tmic if you dont change the stock legacy turbo to have the same angle.the new wrx i/c's are going for les...

Well, I discovered what the problem was the other day. There was a bad ground connection where the engine wiring harness meets the front harness behind the battery. It starts and runs great now that its fixed. Thanks to everyone for their help and suggestions.

EJ22T engine into Impreza electrical problem

I am working on swapping a '92 legacy turbo motor into a 95 impreza. I've been moving it in and out of the garage and the other day it died and wouldnt restart. There's no CEL with the ignition on like there should be and the ignition relay clicks very fast. The tach also jumps to 1500 RPM with key ...
