zadok Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Has anyone on this forum ever modded the 2.2 platform? When I installed my clutch & flywheel, I noticed that the 2.2 only has 1 exhaust port per side, which I did know, but what I didn't know was that if you reach your fingers up inside the exhaust port, it's all open on the inside where the other port should be, as on the 2.5L. So, i'm thinking about getting a set of 2.5 headers and boring out the second exhaust port on the block. The only thing i'm really worried about is the car running to lean, and or too hot; b\c we all know how much soobs love to blow head gaskets. Any comments? '99 Legacy 2.2L 30th.

zadok Posted June 15, 2006 Author Share Posted June 15, 2006 Rather than opening a new thread, has anyone ever heard of a supercharger application that with fit the 2.2 or 2.5 engines?

zadok Posted June 16, 2006 Author Share Posted June 16, 2006 thats pretty cool, but I was thinking of something that is bolt-on\actually made the the engine. I saw a couple of cars with superchargers, but can't find any of them now, other than the original baja that came with a supercharger, but that was a prototype. '99 Legacy 2.2L 30th.

zadok Posted June 26, 2006 Author Share Posted June 26, 2006 For anyone looking for 2.2L upgrades, here's the answer to the riddle! Some parts from the Impreza and Legacy both work, and the 2.2L and 2.5L engines are not that different within the same years! Parts from the 2.5 that fit with no to minor modification: Clutch & Flywheel, Exhaust, Wheels, some Intakes(MAF or MAP) Parts from 2.5L that fit with modifications: Headers and some intakes. Headers require drilling and porting the block to modify exhaust ports from single to dual. Intakes require cutting and welding or using silicone couplers. (heads, pistons, cams, and internals are a waste of time, buy a different engine or car) Places to get parts: http://www.boxer4racing.com/ http://www.techworkseng.com/ http://www.z1auto.com/ http://www.pdm-racing.com/products/subaru_corner.html http://www.spomotorsports.com/gallerySpo.cfm?car=legacy-(1995-2004)&CustomerID=2523 http://www.writerguy.com/primitive/ '99 Legacy 2.2L 30th.
