ej20t 1303 project

[effvee]

Hello, your porject looks very nice, keep up the good work. I have been looking a the late model 6 cylinder Subaru engine. I am thinkin about trying to get one for maybe a 914 setup. I bought a 2.7 911 in pieces, but I just don't like the high reve needed to produce the horse power I want. But on the other side, I would not have to worry about the radiator and it location issues.


If I recall correctly, one member stated the late model 6 cylinder was not that much longer than the 4 cylinder. I'll hold on and wait and see what I can get about this engine, this year. Couple that engine with a Audi 4 speed automatic and I believe that setup will be very hard to beat in a 914

O and a radiator from a 1994 Jeep Cherokee would fit very nicely in the nose.

Update.

Moved my car from the "farm" in Abbotsford to Vancouver.

Never mind the trailer

Ordered some parts.

Started to install parts.

HKS BOV going to be integrated into intercooler.

Exhaust fabrication. Ordered cheap wrx down pipe. Holes didnt line up on the turbo, had to "elongate" them. Chopped it up and added a 3" elbow.

Cooling system fabrication. Using abs piping as a template, then building the whole system out of 1.5" stainless piping.

Against what alot of people are doing, Im running my coolant tubes inside the car. My car is very low and I cant run them under the body due to them contacting the pavement. More parts are on order. Air filter. Radiator. NACA ducts. More pictures to come.
