c'mon guys lets not give him false info viceman-- there is ALOT more work that needs to be done than "just dropping in a turbo motor". it is not that simple.
-
well if he uses an entire na motor (non xt) he will not be able to use his MPFI manifold. so then there will be wirring issues if he wants to keep it fuel injected
-
gary its not an xt so he wil need the turbo heads too, since they are dual port.. his na engine will either be spfi/carb, which have single port heads.

Hey Peeps, Im a noobie here!!

wrx ones will not fit, youll need to use suspension from another EA82 chasis car. BPV= by pass valve. routes the blow off air back into the intake, instead of the atmosphere. -
no need to do all that work!!, just install the NA block with the turbo heads(plugged turbo lines) and manifold. now you got MPFI non turbo . also the non turbo headers ( y pipe) will bolt to you exhasut where your downpipe used to be..

air suspension can be replaced with coils/struts. dont bother with a BOV runs 7psi stock, I'd add an intercooler before you start boosting it. then it woud be wise to add a BPV. heats kills these cars, a good radiator, IC are a must now you can search for details, -

russ - on the front of my wagon for teh 5 lug, i bought brand new 2wd xt6 struts from the dealer. due to the drop(from the struts) the 4wd gl springs were just too soft. i was having some rubbing issues with my 17's and had to roll my fenders. i swapped out for 450lb springs. not the best ride quality, but defeinitly better handling. id imagnine the xt6 2wd struts are/will be stiffer/higher damping than your pre-5lug xt 2wd struts -

I tore off the vinyl, made the pods and recovered in fabric well thats one of those spots that when standing up you dont see:drunk: any way i could have made the pod maintain the same curve as the door panel on teh bottom.BUT either way i could not have it fully extend to the edge as it would hit some of the plastic trim inside when the door shut -

EGR; replace, block, plug or leave alone?
subaru_styles replied to dreedraffs's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...

gary, that tube from the head to the intake is your egr pipe, your mpfi NA spider has no egr system. just splice the conection ..IIRC you might wanna talk with tex about wirring when using the NA spider in a turbo car, as he wirred in a na spider for turbo use. check out my post on xt6.net as you will have to wire in a resistor keep you CEL off due to lack of an egr system..
