  1. https://boulder.craigslist.org/cto/6050125812.html This seems like a good option. All i would want to know is when the timing belt was done last.
  2. WOW. You know your stuff man. I appreciate this response. Did you have to get custom fabrication done for the plumbing then?
  3. which parts in particular? And I'm assuming you can't use any parts from the na version of the motor?
  4. These legacy turbos are automatic. What would be the process to remove heads without the engine pull?
  5. damn that's a ton of miles. I'm obsessed with these older subies. I wonder how much longer the head gaskets will hold out for
  6. Beautiful write up! I appreciate the time! Is thay to say this model is unreliable overall? Or just more so than the NA model?
  7. So i have been looking into legacy turbos for a while and came across thishttps://boulder.craigslist.org/cto/6031023876.html Obviously this price is way to high considering the miles. But what does everyone here think? The timing belt , water pump, and pulleys were changed 40k ago. He said the headgaskets have not been done yet. Anyone have any experience with high mileage legacy turbos? Any advice or things to look out for would be greatly appreciated!
  8. Is it common for them to blow out earlier on the 2.2 turbo models? Im Really interested in those but haven't heard much about them.
  9. I actually sold it! I would have loved to do it, just a time and money thing. I dont know much about the legacy turbos, Any known issues with them?
  10. damn thats crazy, i bet thats a pricey fix to slap in some new pistons and gaskets on a older subie.
  11. Im so confused as to how the 2.5 headgasket is still a issue. Do the newer 2.5's still have this issue?
