Andy FitzGibbon Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Seen it done on other cars, but never a Subaru. Just a steel box that bolts to the exhaust manifold- put your burritos in and a couple hours later they're done. Of course, EA82's don't have manifolds, so I was thinking of putting it behind the passenger side cylinder bank. Just wondering if anyone here had tried it. Thanks, Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4x4_Welder Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 You'd be better off starting with a big chunk of aluminum, and drilling a couple passages through it lengthwise, put fittings on each end, and run your heater hoses through there. Much more controlled cooking environment, only gets up to ~200º, while an exhaust box gets over 500º. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 This would probably work better on a turbo model. All you would need to do is have a hot plate that would sit on top of the turbo. I'm sure it would cook things quite well;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samneric Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 You can see it done here on a Forester.....Maybe more relevant to the newer sube forums but couldn't resist (About 3:30 mins into the clip).... Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NV Zeno Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 a couple hours later they're done (my Italics) Uhhh...isn't that kind of a long time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samneric Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 (my Italics) Uhhh...isn't that kind of a long time? Not for a leg of lamb Besides, their mission was finding a solution to having to eat the terrible food you find at road side restaurants while on a long road journey in the UK. If you throw your grub on to the "stove" when you start your trip, by the time you would normally stop for food the meal would be ready. Of course, if you want "Fast Food", you could always turn up the RPMs to say 4 or 5 thousand and grill up in a fraction of the time Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 Thats kinda why I mentioned using a turbo. It would be the rolling version of a microwave oven:grin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloyale Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 Hpoefully you don't have any oil leaks on that exhaust or you're have *smoked* dinner:Flame: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desertsubaru Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 Mmmm...20-50w flavor:-p We would just put stuff in three layers of tinfoil and rap it up real well and drive for like 2 hours for a steak! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nug Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Drive through a field for a side salad and garnish. A nice meal is nothing without presentation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
