Hey all,
I own a 00 BH LGT wagon, I acquired a ej257 b25c sti motor. I know you can bolt up the heads to the block.
But what crossmember should i use?
many say use an sti one, but i feel like it will not fit an a legacy bay.
also what parts do i all need for forced induction? here is my list currently.
uppipe
downpipe
BOV
Intercooler
fuel rail
injectors
walboro 255 fuel pump
sti water pumper
sti oil pan
Tune

Turbo crossmember or cut the stock one for the up pipe to fit. Oil and coolant lines for the turbo, maybe a stronger trans depending on how much power you plan to put down

looking at staying around 300. i dont want to go too crazy. i know the 5 speed cant handle much over 350whp.
