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 Turbo 98

I have a 98 Impreza with an EJ22. Can this be turboed? Or should I just do a complete engine swap Also, about how much is each gonna run me?

Let me also say that this car has about 75k miles on it, should I just leave it how it is and go with bolt-on's or go ahead and get the whole shabang?

can it be turboed? yes, there are a few kits available cost is from a bit over 3,000 and up

Should you do a swap? depends on what you want. The EJ20 will give you more power and more reliable power than the EJ22 but will cost more to build and need more fabrication. I believe (if I remember correctly) cost would start at around 6,000 and run up with the more mods/power you wanted.

75k is not that many and what you should do is completely dependent on your goal and dedication (both fiscal and personal)

good luck and let us know what you decide

I was looking through some posts last night and I found one than had links to ludespeed and forced air technologies, and I found some entry-level kits, but I think I'm gonna save up a little more and get the stage 2 with the intercooler. Does it really make a big difference?
