Just came across this eBay listing for the twin turbo EJ20H engine and a 2nd gen Legacy right hand drive non-runner. Does this belong to someone here? I've always wanted something special and BOOSTED I'm wondering if any of you here have done the EJ20H swap? The hardware included in the pictures look to be complete to ensure a successful swap, but I'm not too sure...

If I get to buy this, I'll have my friend to perform the swap since he's alot more experienced with Subaru's boxer engines (and I'm not ) But is there any foreseeable obsticles in such a project other than swapping the engine, trannsmission, axles, and ECU?

Your advice is greatly appeciated

Everything's on the correct side, but the wiring is going to be a PITA. The EJ20H swaps always are.

The wiring really isn't all that bad. The bigger challenge is getting all the vacuum lines that have been cut put back together properly. There's a guy on NASIOC who goes by the SN of "Mel Adjusted" Shoot him a PM and tell him I sent you to ask for the wiring diagrams. He'll think it's really neat that you are doing this swap...

My, a regular single turbo swap is not enough of a challenge for you?

It would be cool to see it work, but good luck, as the vacuum lines and the wiring both are going to be a PITA.

If your friend is doing the swap for you, he wont be a friend afterwards, i would learn how to use a multi meter and a soldering gun and do it yourself. Took me 8 months, and iam a mechanic by trade. Its not an easy weekend job.
Best bet is to get on Ebay autralia and buy a shop manual for a Liberty as a guide.
Good luck man, my TT engine is planned for next year.
