!993 Turbo Wagon for sale. ~135k miles, Stock except for 3"turbo-back SS exhaust (MRT), KYB shocks, transmission rebuilt 10k ago, everything works well but will probably need a turbo rebuild soon. Great shape- I'm the first owner, my wife drove it for the first 15 years. Located in San Francisc...

I've not been getting any CEL...
I'm starting to ask many of the same questions thath mgroshong threw out.
I'll have to look at a Clymers book about some of questions.
Thanks for the help.I'll keep looking. Any other ideas??

I'm stumped, so I'll ask you guys, the experts. Sometimes when I'm starting from a stop. I'll roll on throttle and i'll only get up to 5 pounds of boost (>3,000 rpm). It doensn't pull very hard--Same thing when I'm rolling along, I'll dip into the throtle and only get that 5 pounds of boost and it w...

with the 550cc injectors?

which injectorsdo you think I need to go with?

The stock (pink) ones should be good enough. I haven't heard many people mention that thier injectors needed to be upgraded too. I could be wrong about that... Anybody?
thanks again Josh, Matt, 92whitelegacy

Guys, thanks for the insight and advice. I'm a noob with this and appreciate the help. I think I have enough guts to yank the old one out and stuff a new one in. I'll call Jerry and order one tomorrow. I guess it's like the time I had to install a new window into an exsisting wall. It was tough to p...

So when I do the swap, what will I need besides the usual gaskets? Any parts I should replace while I'm in ther? The reason I'm asking is because I want to do this over the weekend and there won't be any parts places open.
Thanks

My car is getting about 13MPG too...

Deadbolt says that their TD05-16 will bolt up but there will be minor modifications to make it fit properly. Has anyone here done the install of the TH05h-16g with the clocked 90º inlet? I thought I saw that the only real problems were with the cooling and oil lines. Anyone done this installation? p...

I found a vf11 for sale but it has a different housing number that what I've seen here as the "right " number.
The number I've seen as the correct housing number is VF119007 (thanks THAWA)
The one I found has a housing number of VF119011
My question is will this bolt up to my car.

Thanks Imprezive!

So if I got my hands on any of those turbos listed above, would they bolt right up?

How did it work out? Did it help resolve any idle problems?

Has anyone here removed and refurbished their IAC? I've seen postings on other boards about WRXs being able to clean theirs out and replacing it. Will this work with ours? Any thing that I need to watch out for as I attempt to remove and replace the IAC?
Thanks.

I got my sunroof problem fixed with out removing the headliner/sunroof. I first removed both front mudflaps and took all the garbage that collects back there out and left them off while I worked on clearing the tubes. Next I took some line from my stringtrimmer (.080) and pushed it down the tubes in...

I've been getting around 15mpg. Still wouldn't trade it for a hybrid car though.

Brat4by4 said it perfectly. The most smiles per mile for your dollar; get the exhaust.

I have the same issues with idle speed after I had installed my exhaust system. The idle speed has dropped to about 650 rpm at idle. your rough/low idle could be a result of low back pressure after the turbo (although I don't know why or how. It just happens on my car)

I replaced my key and had no further problems. Initially there was the ignition switch and door locks that would hang up. I went to the dealer with the original key and they made a new key that has worked flawlessly. The dealer needed the key number stamped on the side of the key.

Does anyone have experience with replacement headlight bulbs (H4) for our cars? I put a set of PIAAs (blue plasma) into my wife's minivan and it isn't as good as the stock Sylvania white (9007). Any one own the Hella +50s?

I found that using a plastic cleaner works best. (McKay #321). It is formulated to remove stuff without changing the surface. That McKay stuff is made for plastic windows on convertables, and lens on helmets. It works great.
