    1.8 turbo setup

    ok, ok, I cave guys. I was going to do a 2.2 swap in my "new" impreza hatch, but there isn't a lot of point in doing that when you can do a 2.5 just as easy. That being said, I think I desided to go 1.8T rout. I have a list of questions for all you knowledgable people out there: 1. how well...

    1.8 to 2.2 built swap

    of course you do! :-). If I wern't building it for an autocross car and a daily driver, I would do just that. actually, I'd take my 2.2 heads, and mate the 2.2 turbo block to them, and with some work set up a 2.2L turbo application BUT, this is how I get to my power goals and stay in the right...

    WRX 2.5 STi short block hybrid swap

    I already have a fully adjusable Turbo XS utec in the car (and dave from F1 was the guy who put it in :-) I'm going over to my friends house today, and we are going to drain the oil out of it. I'll also check the spark plugs while I'm at it to see...but I would think that if one of those had...

I think the water pump should be fine with some clean up. while the motors off, I'm going to put a new clutch in, and put a...
