td04

Post by The Scooby »

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.

what about the oil lines? i know the return is the same, will the VF11 feed line bolt up?

and the coolant line i cut apart off the td04 and spun arround so it points at the stock coolant tank so that will work.

Oil lines bolt right up.

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.
