November 18, 200520 yr What years/cars did the EJ22 turbo come in, and what power levels did it produce? What differences other than the turbo wiring/piping would I encounter trying to transplant an EJ22T in place of an EA82 non turbo, versus say, a plain jane ej22? Is it just as easy?
November 18, 200520 yr The wiring should not be any more difficult than an EJ22 n/a swap. You will probably have to fab some exhaust pieces and stuff. You'll have to check and see if the turbo cars ran higher fuel pressure...an SPFI pump is sufficient for the n/a EJ22, but if the EJ22T needs more pressure, you'll have to grab a pump from an EA82T. Also, if you were running an EJ22T, I doubt you could get away with running the stock EA82 radiator. At minimum, I would run a 2-row EA82T rad, but I would recommend an EJ radiator like I got for my EJ22 swap, which has way more cooling capacity.
November 18, 200520 yr ej22t motors came in the 91-94 turbo legacies. Stock hp was 165 with around 180 ft-lbs of torque.
November 19, 200520 yr yes, but, those motors with the right combo of parts can make 400 reliable WHP all day long, arent turbos great!!! ~Josh~
