Engine/Power - non turbo (All non turbo Imprezas) Who needs a turbo when you have 2500cc? Cams, intakes, exhausts, etc. The 2.2L and 1.8L Subies are cool too.

Question 08 Impreza Sport 5dr engine mod

I recently purchased an 08 Preza 5dr hatch. Has anyone seen any turbo mods for this car and would a 08 WRX turbo install for this car?

I am would like to achieve at least 200hp in the end. Right now (stock) the car has 170 @ 6000RPM I believe.

I can't afford to dump another 10G to trade this one in and get into a 08/09 WRX. Subaru will only give me 17G for my car and I paid over 25 retail.

Would Subaru even install a WRX turbo??

Thanks,

On the passenger side of the bay there is an opening where the turbo would normally go. I have an '08 myself but I am shying away from a turbo mod because of the lag...can't stand it personally.

Anywhoo...you should be able to pop on a WRX turbo, do the necessary engine and ECU mods and have yourself a nice little trackstar.
