BlueSoob Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Quick Question: When gazing under the hood of my 03 Forester X, I noticed a "Boost Sensor" on top by the ignition wires. I thought "How silly to have such a thing on a non-turbo car" Perhaps this was all set up to use the same engine with a light turbo to bolt to the top for the Forester XT? *curious* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electryc_monk Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 curious... makes me wonder IF its a odd name for the fuel pressure unit when the pump goes to higher PSI when you floor it????? ..or maybe its just part of the wiring to be cheaper at streamling the assembly line with a "single wirring system and only installing *needed* adapters as the model requires....

Legacy777 Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 doubt it's a boost sensor. Why do you say it's a boost sensor, what does it look like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSoob Posted October 23, 2003 Author Share Posted October 23, 2003 Its a little blue box... right on top towards the back... and Writen on top of it... it says "Boost Sensor" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSoob Posted October 23, 2003 Author Share Posted October 23, 2003 oh- and I'm thinking its just thrown on there to make a universal wiring system that wouldn't have to be changed for the XTs. Maybe today I shall take a peek at another Forester /xt and check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
