Actually. the Ej20 and tranny are coming from a Legacy Turbo (Canadian car). My buddy had a Legacy turbo, which was stock with a 2.2L SOHC motor. When that started getting run down (around 230,000 km) he threw a JDM EJ20 into it. So..i'm using the JDM Ej20, Legacy Turbo Tranny, and Legacy Turbo 3.9 ...

EJ22 Turbos were not released on the Australian market but they do exist. However as they have the same heads as an EJ20 Turbo they don't fit into a Brumby. assuming you are talking about the USDM EJ22 Turbos that came in the US Legacy Turbo.....they used a single cam head.....they might well fit i...

interesting concept...however with those pivots i believe the towers will still beable to move inwards and outwards. or even individually. you are right on them moving up and down...they will do that, but they can also move in/out, or front/back. Mainly because everything is not in-line (because you...

i threw a turbo from the EA82T's at it, and ran 10 PSI...Thing went like a bat outta hell.

160 KW at the wheels...did they not have more than that stock??

i think we did some research and thinking it made 220 HP at the crank stockish...which is like 165 kw.

Do you think the added weight of the Ej20 in the front has any effect on the understeering??

i'm worried the EA transmission will not take the power of the EJ20
