crazy D

but thats not what he's doing....he's modding his Ea82T. not an ej22. and thats what this thread is about...not to be an rump roast, but he's asking about the ea82 not an Ej. yodannyc, lots have people have modified the Ea82 T's with nice intercoolers. thesubarujunkie used a big volvo intercooler on his RX and it ran great for him. and im pretty sure crawlerdan used an upgrade intercooler on his '86 rx too and he says it runs great also. correct me if im wrong,....but did stick Ea82 T's even run intercoolers? -Dalton

sounds like a sick project man!!! old skoolllll!!!!!!!!! gen ones are the way to go...i kinda want one...do you haveany pics of the car your doing this too?

yes but you will also need an Ea81 tranny. the gen one tranny's didnt match up with the gen 2 (unless it is an Ea81 '81 brat with d/r. -Dalton
