A Carburated EJ22

Post by TheSubaruJunkie »

You guys thought you'd never see one huh? Ive actually dreamed of building one... usually for brainless transplants into the EA series cars.

Which is where this one went:

For those of you who dont frequent the USMB. Thats Scott of SJR who manufactures lifts, bumpers, pretty much anything for the EA series. He cast's his stuff in aluminum and looks great.

That is AMAZING. Carbeurated sounds just as good as fuel injected! If not better!!

Meh. It would be cool if he installed to two dual-throat down drafts with velocity stacks on it (I always thought these engines would look badass like that), but this is just like the lazy-man's way to get an offroad beater more cheap power. Better low end this way, I suppose.

I don't remember if it was the EJ22 or EJ18 overseas, but they came with a carburator from the factory. It talks about it in the FSM from overseas.

Wasn't there a carbed EJ16? If not, then it was definitely an EJ18.
