Info on my engine
Hey just after some info on my engine eg what it may or may not handle. Firstly i must point out i live in New Zealand and my car has been imported from Japan a few years ago. It is a 1991 Legacy VZ Type R BC5 model with an ej20D engine and a 5speed manual tranny. Anyone shed some light on this?

Your engine is an EJ20G...
It's 2 liter, makes approximately 220bhp...
Since it is a Type-R, it most likely has a VF12 turbo, and may have forged pistons...I am unsure of that...

An EJ20D is not an EJ20G. A VZ is a normally aspirated car. The V means top of the line for NA's, and the Z means 2.0L. Your engine is a 2.0L DOHC NA, which I believe makes something like 150hp/130lb/ft (torue might be off a little). The intake manifold is variable length which is why the hp/torque is so good. The type-R adds at the very least suspension from the RS, and interior from the GT. Depending on the year you may have an RS/GT bumper with fogs, but if it's a 91 I don't think so.

Maybe you could have consulted the currently active thread on that engine and subject?
And this should help even though it contains a couple of errors...

That's actually not where I got the info, as this thread was before that one. Google anything for long enough and you learn too much about it, ran into a site with hella info on the different trims like a year or two ago when blah blah blah, it's not interesting. I dont remember the site anymore though.
