Look my video… help me. ( new leak ? )
Wow after seeing how complicated that engine bay is, makes an engine swap
look like cake in my crx or 240sx
@anubisprince36 no if i was a douche id drive a wrx
@sergsrt8 Thats what I was gonna ask. Im not sure if the factory sensors
and ecu will just run the new turbo with same boost as old one or if it
will run like shit or what? It may be a noob question but it would be nice
to know?
@gorelord187 You have no life for being drunk and YouTubing!
@scottclements78 my answer to you is this. It depends on how much more
boost the new turbo makes. There will be a need for larger injectors and
maybe ECU flash, but that is only if you wanna make a lot more hp. If you
just upgrade a turbo that will make 3 psi more than the previous then you
dont need any of that.
@TheDwill1234 you heard of cutting videos? its a magical thing done with
help of another magic thing called computer.
@TheDwill1234 no he said it took him 3-5 hours in the vid
FUCKING amateur what a NooB
Yeah you can swap turbos but you have to get bigger injectors, bigger 255
lpm fuel pump and get it tuned. Go to nasioc.com to read up on it.
@tupaczdabest thats pretty good…looks like it would be a bitch to put
back in…while i was at it…i would relocate it so it could be easier to
get at
Good mechanic dude there.
@katanamast279 That is actually not hard at all. I have done it more than
once, the stock Bov is right next to the top mount. Only 2 to 3 bolts hold
it on and the vacuum line. basically look at everything the stock Bov has
on it and put the new one on the way the old one was
What power gain would you be looking at with the bigger top mount n turbo??
@SRTR6 it’s alled a top mount, and they don’t all come right there you
chose that, but yeah I hate top mounts too
@rock3tcat I’ll Swap mine for a New 55″ LED LCD 3D hehehehehe
@MEAKapc you have a point…i guess relocating it would be a little
useless…unless you have the money to throw a big ass turbo in it like you
said haha
he sounds uber gay!!
@nizmo7 but it cant be good for intake temperatures or cooling of the
intercooler to have it on top of the engine…lot of heat coming up from it
🙂 ofc they have the scoop on the hood but, i guess front mounting is best
way to do it =)
@TheDwill1234 He said it takes 3 – 5 hours.
I can’t even kill a 6 pack of beer in under 8 minutes. I have that same
tmic it’s night and day over the smaller than a bible oem one.
Note: this was posted in 2008. There are a lot more options these days.
@davenow let me apologize i did not mean to insult you i just cant stand
Subaru as a company their cars have major head gasket problems fragile
transmissions and the company does nothing to solve the issues. but for
some reason the love of Subarus is almost cult like and we have customers
refuse to believe a Subaru has a design flaw.
I didnt see you put any gaskets anywhere , do you need to put on any
gaskets to prevent any leaks? all i saw was metal to metal is it true? im
thinking of swapping the turbo on my WRX cus it started smoking etc…
that is a stock setup.
this is the same engine used in the sti ???
@MEAKapc i do know how much work that would be….but if your upgrading the
turbo you might as well relocate it.wayyyyyyyyyyy better in the long run
@MadnessPk2 twas a joke
@sergsrt8 not if you’re using stock psi.
wow u working on subie with ur wedding ring? L33t
@PJtheFighterPilot WOW that makes no sense what so ever. Learn proper
grammar before you open your fucking mouth.
Step 1 – Remove the interwarmer…
this music suckes!!
@nizmo7 You forgot to mention the MAIN purpose of them displacing the
intercooler. Its main purpose for moving it was so that the intercooler
does not get clogged and dirt and such. That is also why the intakes are
usually displaced.
@davenow cb 750
@Cmutt91 you definately can do that!
@TheDwill1234 haha. well I’m sure someone else has commented you about this
but he said abour 3 hours in the vid 🙂
whtas the diffrence with those two turbos by the way??? anyone pls thanks
you..
@PJtheFighterPilot Wow you call me a dumb ass yet you still don’t even
realize how fucking stupid you are. Let’s go over how dumb you are, “your a
perfect example” there is certainly something wrong with that. Let me
explain in simple terms so you can understand. Your is possessive like your
phone your leg your house etc. What you should have said is “you’re a
perfect example” hence you’re meaning you are so in other words what you
said made NO sense because you are a fucking retard. Get it now?
ur camera man sux…
@getalife04 Ok, mister get a life …. which pretty much doesn’t have a
life because all he does is just sit behind his or her computer all day and
comment on people’s videos (with stuff that doesn’t even have to do with
the video ) and correct peoples mis-spelled words because he or she has no
life out of the internet !!!
The turbo on my 900 Saab was so much easier.
Torque specs are….KINDA TIGHT hahaha lol
@getalife04 your a perfect example
Can you upgrade turbo without upgrading intercooler or fuel injectors sorry
if this noob question?
@tiredfingers99 GM? this is a Subaru… and why would your mom want a turbo
charger lol.
