I was discussing in the frankenstein 2.2/2.5 thread about putting the 2.5 in my car without doing the 2.2 head swap, I was under the impression that was the only way to get the 2.5 to work in my car.
this will be my first subaru swap (I am no stranger to engine swaps, in fact I have a patent on Lexus 1UZFE 4.0 V8 motor mounts that bolt it right into a Toyota 4Runner/Truck- replacing the 3.0 or 2.4) so most aspects of a swap arent an issue for me, what I want to know is to bolt the 2.5 in what else needs to be addressed? can I just bolt my 2.2 throttle body on the 2.5 intake as well as sensors, or use existing sensors?
thanks for any advice, this was a free car (I paid scrap metal price for it, had a rod through the block) I was going to build a higher compression motor with 2.2 heads, but for now until I can put some money into the heads and other performance parts I will settle for the 2.5 stock.
yes, I did do a search on doing the 96 OBDII, I didnt find a thing on it.
