ok ive read through but i want to be clear.
swap a wrx turbo onto my 92 ss
use T-lego coolant lines, wrx lines work might have to be bent.
90degree inlet pipe
cut the coolant lines apart
up/down pipes bolt up i know, but should i replace the gaskets?
Thanks,
Shean

That sounds like the jist of it. New gaskets would be a good idea, but can be reused if neccisary. I actually have no gaskets on my setup. Oh well.

ok well it took me about 1.5hours, but i have the turbo bolted in place, i ripped a coolant line so i have to go get a new hose tomarrow and make that up, also i used the wrx coolant lines, and the legacy oil lines, i couldn't for the life of me get the wrx return line to slip in, so i pulled the turbo back off, swapped it for the legacy one and it slipped right in.
now tomarrow when i get to work i just have to bolt the downpipe back up, the intercooler, and then cut the inlet radiator hose to length, and put in a peice of pipe to join it to the factory intake.
also im just running off wastgate boost for now, ill get a few miles on it then put the MBC back on before subie fest next weekend and then beat the crap out of it.
