    I'm not sure about the Suburus, but most engines that come with turbos have forged pistons to handle the higher compression ratios created by turbos. Where as the stock engine don't have forged pistons. Just something to keep in mind when adding a turbo to a stock engine.

      Yes this is true also with Subaru engine I've seen in the past so I'm not sure how long a non turbo engine would last maybe with the tiny turbos on all cars these days it may work

    the stock na 2.5, and 2.2 blocks have around the same cylinder wall thickness as an ej205, it's actually pretty strong, it's just most people turbo it at way to high of pressure with no engine management and it blows up

    • @Dirtcheapdaily
      @Dirtcheapdaily  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Fox Mense the bigger issue I'm worried about is the high compression in the 25D

    • @fox10169
      @fox10169 8 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Dirtcheapdaily yup, that's another big killer. I'm running a phase 1ej22 block with phase 2 ej22 heads. It's a cheap but proven reliable method in lowering the comp. It brings it down to something like 8:1

    • @Dirtcheapdaily
      @Dirtcheapdaily  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Fox Mense that's the next turbo motor I want to run. Those things are pretty bullet proof. What management are you running?

      I'm currently running ej22e in a 1993 legacy L. custom cold air stage 2 clutch custom 2.25 headerback at the moment. just upgraded my interior from a 2007 leg gt with spec b style leather buckets. I love this channel and I would love to collaborate with like minded geniuses for a custom turbo conversion.

    I have a 2006 2.5i myself, and all over up and down, the internet keeps crying about how "the bottom end isn't built for mods" and "you need to just buy a WRX instead!" I tried to track down some shops to tune the ECU and I was running into people saying they don't touch that one for some reason. How did the build turn out? This is the first video of yours I've found!

      +Dylan Gil it basically is, but I'm not sure if the 02 ECU and MAF could deal with boost as well as the 90's ECUs. Mechanically it's the same.
