I'm thinking about just using stock EJ22T injectors. I'm only running 11psi of boost out of a VF8, but I don't know if the stock injectors can handle that.
I thought the stock fuel system was good for 16 psi? Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
That would be nice if so. I am using a 2.5L block though, not 2.2, in case that would have any affect on fueling.

Cleaned IAC (again), let it idle a bit, reved it a couple of times, had a short chat with the neighbour, "yes it's subaru, yes it's a bit loud, no it wasn't built in hell", went back indoor now smiling.

Drove over a rabbit, not the car but the critter... Also yelled at the moonroof for leaking on my head like usual.

Where's the fun in that? I once kicked over a GL using the spare tire hold down. Convenient that they put it over the transmission.

There are four right rear quarter panels for 90-91 sedans left in the country.
On Monday, I ordered one of them.

You can fit an EJ22 in the trunk of a sedan.

Logged about an hour's worth of time on the Link driving around town. Also installed wiring for the toggle switch to turn on/off the ECU logging.

Lol I keep my lug wrench under my seat just for that reason! Happens about every 3 days.
I fixed the rear drivers side window, now it goes up and down! I have had the car for 5 years now and it was just one wire I had to repair.

I did some more body work on the SS welded in some new metal at the right rear quarter and then put body filler on that and both rockers. Also discovered that my excessive shifter movement is due to blown bushings in the u-joint of the mechanism and i think my return spring is off too

Put in a new knock sensor the Subaru gods sent my way today. Can't believe the old one didn't set a code with the crack it had, but tested @542k. Pulls harder already!

And here it is...
Dent-free as well! Amazing despite the condition/age of the box and the imbecile delivery driver who practically tossed it off the truck unloading it.

Removed the air filter and realised it was the cause of my boost problem

Washed it, then got new connectors so I could hook up my train horn switch correctly, then briefly considered hooking up my 4 channel amp to my speakers instead of the subs, but realized I didn't have speaker wire.
