OE Turbo

Post by JoKO »

Hey guys, I just bought a 92 Legacy RS (aka Liberty in Australia). I'm quite new at this and was wondering how big off a surge r u supposed to get when your foot is flat on the throttle coz mine feels like it's not gettin the expected acceleration compared to a wrx. Could the turbo be stuffed? If so, what better alternative could i look at to replace it without having to change the stock exhaust manifold or anythin related? Cheers!

It's not going to compare to a new WRX... but it should be noticeable. What does the boost gauge read? If you dont have one, thats the first thing to do to troubleshoot your 'problem'.
