Hello...seeing if anyone has a picture of an upgraded turbo for an EA82....From what i've been told, the downpipe will bolt to early turbo leg turbos....but I'd like to conferm that....as well as I'd kinda like to see the length diffrences,and if someone had a side by side pic that would be great. I cant seem to find any via search....The turbo isnt in a subaru...so length matters to me....:)

I'm confused

 

Are you looking for pics of the downpipe or the turbo?

 

I used a wrx downpipe when I first put my TD04 on. Don't know how length compares though. The WRX DP is a two piece unit compared to the EA82 1 piece. Besides the Legacy turbo and WRX pipe is so much larger than the stock EA82 stuff, its not like it would make any sense to try to connect the two.

The downpipe will NOT bolt to the VF11. I tried this and was sorely disappointed.

Thats what I was looking for....Im doing a turbo 16v volkswagen 'rocco...and its using a turbo from an EA82....I was hoping to go bigger, but I dont want to redo the downpipe flange....

Its CIS-E.....and it has the "hack" to make it run richer/adjustable....I think it will be fine...the guy had it for about 40k without it running the "hack"..... As long as the injectors can keep up, it should be fine....

how many pounds are you running??? because that really truely sounds like death is lurking in that engine.... your knock sensor is going to freak out man!!! i know you know this but i have to say it anyways... RUN PREMIUM!!!

my thoughts exactly, but it must be a really good low end torque with that small turbo and compression out the rump roast.

maybe some toluene couldnt hurt on the hot days, and I hope its intercooled?

 

Yeah...my 86 GL10T was great with the High comp motor Im hoping for similar results...the car should only see about 8psi.... There is no intercooler in this setup....But I think im gona have to come up with one for sure.....
