Hows it going, just bought a 95 legacy L. I have been into subarus for quite sometime and I also own a 92 SVX LSi with a 5 speed swap. I will be selling the SVX to finance some mods that I will be doing to the Legacy. I have already purchased most of the parts to put a WRX turbo on the 2.2. I plan on running this for a while and then getting a legacy 2.2 turbo block and installing it. I will also be converting this car to 5 speed.

Dont laugh, I got it for $400 and it only needs a new timing belt. Only has 105k but the interior is a little ratty. I am in the military(USAF) and I will be moving back home to denver soon. I know that I would not be able to get one this cheap back home so I snatched it up. I have already order enough parts that total more than 3 times what I paid for the car, hehe. Anyways, I will be running soon enough, then it will be turbo time!

I was actually more interested in the SVX!

There's one near me with a 5spd swap too... $1600.

My svx is just coming out of paint(you can see it in the background) I still need to reassemble the body. Mine has a WRX transmission, it is pretty sweet. I will post up some pics as soon as the body is done. I was going to try to sell mine for $4k. $1600 is an absolute steal.

That is such a deal, even with a crap load of miles. I would prolly snatch that up if I was close. Subarus of any kind are impossible to come by in my area.

Welcome to SLi :wink:

I'd read up plenty on boosting the NA 2.2l... You will run into many problems, the biggest being fuel delivery. (disregard this if you ment the ej22t :lol: )

Post pics of the SVX when its done :cool:

I am getting injectors and rail from a legacy turbo and I will be using a SAFC to run them. I only plan on running the stock boost on the WRX turbo. I also have a wideband o2 and EGT gauge for tuning. I will post up some pics of the SVX once it is all done.
