so since posting pictures is difficult for me for whatever reason...

but I wanted to start an official build thread!

2002 legacy wagon,

things I have!

-oem headers
-oem up pipe
-oem down pipe
-td04
-wrx top mount
-braided hoses
-brass fittings
-gaskets



things I still need!
-stock wrx bov
-a set of balls to do it.


I still need to notch the cross member and tap the valve cover aswell...

any insight on specific fittings to get through your alls trial and error would be great :) :smt026

good luck bro! subbed

*updates*

purchased all the gaskets and a braided line for the banjo bolt feed..

also have some horrendous engine noise.. so boosting it will for sure detonate whatever bomb is lurkering in the bottom end. so im searching for a second engine and also considering a ej205 swap... but well see where it takes me...

p.s. im still gonna boost this engine. i think itll be a fun project to see what happens. im going to change the oil next week and add some honey to it.

[Spennybrah]

fun one to research and build would be the ej22t

so funny story... the tapping i was hearing while driving. (a very audible noise only while in motion) was actually just a nail that was shredding the inside of my tire.. new tires later thanks to a killer deal at driven performance. no more noise. i was worried it was my engine. but as soon as i have my separation orders and im back in maryland i will be doing the conversion! stay tuned!

if you have photobucket you shouldnt have a problem posting just try to size them by 680 so they aren't huge.

[agjoyce]

OEM Headers from a WRX will not fit your car, afaik the water pump is in the way and touches the headers. Also the WRX top mount, only certain years will fit without any modification. If you need any more help there's two DIY guides on how to turbo a boxer on this forum. "Turbo your EJ25D" and one for the EJ22E.

Subbed for sure :D wanting to do the same to my 96 leg
