who here has replaced their turbo with a larger WRX turbo? whats the difference, how hard was the bolt up, and will the intercooler of the same year fit on without any abnormal modifiactions???

i have a line on some older WRX ICs and turbos and was wondering whats worth the trouble and what i should stay away from...

thanks gents!

If you want easy, stay away from the '96 and newer models. Much work is
required to make the intercooler work, cutting-relocating-welding-etc. The
turbo needs inlet mods and reclocking.

Every Subaru turbocharger I have ever seen bolts right up to a stock USA Legacy up-pipe, but the angle is a bit different for the down-pipe. It would be a great time to build a custom down-pipe. I sell the flanges ($25.00 US shipped anywhere in US/Canada) that allow you to weld straight into standard 3" mandrel bent tubing available from JC Whitney.
