Question for those running stock wrx turbo's

Post by stipro »

I did a search and found nothing directly. I would like to know the distance between the face of the compressor side to the inside of the #3 intake runner.

That's actually mreese's car.

I can't tell you what the distance is, Michael, but I can tell you it's a very tight fit. Eyeballing that photograph, and knowing that elbow has an outer diameter of about 2-1/4", I would guess that the distance would be about 2-7/8".

OK, I figured that it would be approximatley 3", and 2 7/8" is close enough. Thanks.
