That flow damn fine! 2.5" exhaust ej22e Phase 1 block ej22t Pistons ej22t crankshaft Turbo 15 psi, ish(Can my vf11 do it! I doubt it...) Im building it(obviously) ANY ADVICE will be helpful!

KuNomn Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 shame you're on the opposite side of the country, I have JDM EJ25 twin cam heads sitting around doing nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babybaluga32 Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 :/ that sucks! Would 2002 wrx heads be a good option? I want to have higher compression heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subikid90 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 NOOOOOO you want lower compression for a turbo build, otherwise you will need to order headgaskets in bulk lol -Subikid90 1997 Legacy GT 5spd & EJ251 w/EJ25D heads ~10.5CR 1998 Legacy GT Limited waiting for EJ22T hybrid swap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babybaluga32 Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 Well I know that lower is better when turboing, but people are saying that with to low of compression the power will suffer.. Wrong? The 22t pistons will lower it already to 8 something and if I used ej25 heads it would drop it even lower....... I don't understand it that well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subikid90 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Ah I see, ideal would be just under 9:1 for a turbo build as far as I know. -Subikid90 1997 Legacy GT 5spd & EJ251 w/EJ25D heads ~10.5CR 1998 Legacy GT Limited waiting for EJ22T hybrid swap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carnumber19 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 You can run higher compressions with turbos, it just really comes down to how tune savvy you (or your tuner) is. Higher compressions increase the chance of detonation. In theory you can tune to avoid this, but I think it's generally considered easier to tune a lower compression motor when boosting. If you want a higher effective compression ratio, just run a slightly higher boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babybaluga32 Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Would 02 wrx heads be wide enough for my phase 2 intake manifold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
