2.5 should go?

Featured Replies

I was told my head gasket is going so is it a good thing to convert to the 2.2 or an ea20 twin turbo? prices for a used 2.5 range from $1600-3500. I was also quoted $1250 for a 2.0 twin turbo complete w/ ecu, all acces and wiring. I have yet to get quoted on a 2.2. The trans will be replced/rebuilt at the same time. Please share your opinions! Thanks for the help on the overheat inquire.:-\

Humm.........? :confused:

 

What car are we talking about here?

 

Turbos are always good :burnout:

huh?

 

my 2.5 has 90k and is just fine

 

depends on the model model year if you are at risk.

 

but no way would i just assume my hg's are going to go and put 3k into a turbo/engine conversion

The twin turbo engine won't fit the car without some major work. They can be had relatively cheaply, but won't fit because they're set up for Japan, where cars are RHD. The LHD steering rack gets in the way.
