Hey I was just wondering If anyone knows if the stock turbo off my x would bolt onto a STI exhaust manifold? My brother is looking at maybe buying a used impreza and maybe turbocharging it in the future, so I was thinking if I upgrade the turbo on my X I'd sell it to him to put on the impreza if it would work with just buying STI exhaust and intake? Anyone know if this would work? Thank you for you're input
1) Used stock STI turbos can be found for cheap(er) on nasioc and other sites, and are more "in the family".
2) Most guys who think about boosting impreza find it is easier, cheaper, and more reliable to buy an old 03-05 WRX rather than all the work that goes into boosting a base impreza (strengthening engine internals, transmission, cooling system, brakes, etc.)
That. Although, the 02-05 WRXs are really shitty when trying to get decent (over 350whp) out of them. I know personally, went through 5 professionally built/tuned engines on mine. Hence why I sold the pos.
absolutley not. being that subies and evos are straight up rivals. im sure there wouldnt be anything that would allow them to exhange parts.
unless you can fab something up......
