Motivation/advice

Post by Grombal »

I've got a 96BG with a 25/22 hybrid engine. I am planning to put together ej22e bottom, 25d heads, and a VF11. I have the manifold and up pipe, but I feel it won't be so easy this time as it was putting a ej22t in my old 98BG. Considerations include replacing/cutting crossmember, bov, and using the 22t water pump. It will be running WG pressure, so only upgrade/mod would be an moD or somwthing of the like, I'd imagine, given that the 98BG ran the 22t on stock ecu with no issues.

What can I do to retrofit feed/dump lines to this engine for the turbo? I saw that some run the tee from the oil pressure switch, I'm wondering if there's anything even better than that...

What is the most reasonable size for a FMIC for this application, as I do not want to use top mount if I don't have to.

Inb4 search noob, as I didn't see anything directly applicable to this that answered these questions.

Welcome to the BBS.

Regarding an oil feed line for the turbo, I'd have the passenger side head drilled and tapped to provide oil & coolant. You can kind of see what the stock ej22t head setup is like from the pictures below.
