If the torque control is the thing that shuts off one bank during shifts that can be ignored, the neutral and parking switches, what do those do? I had thought those would be for starting the car or cruise or something. What does the TCU do with the atmos pressure sensor info?

the only way that would be halfway feasible is if you made an engine on a stand... did everything out of teh car, and then oonce you figured out all the details, modified what you ahve to fit inside of the car.. but even then, it really doesn't make much sense to do it twice

THAWA, I suppose the EG33 does lean towards the pent-roof design, but from pictures I've seen, it more strongly resembles a hemispherical design that the EJ22 heads. I thought I read from a legitimate source somewhere that they were considered to be hemispherical, but I may be pulling that recollection out of my arse. The distinction between the two isn't exactly black and white. "Hemis" never are truly hemispherical and pent-roofs sure got a lot of curves these days. Maybe I'm just splitting hairs.
It appears than the data on compression ratio history is simply inconclusive. Since the EJ22 and EJ22T heads are not identical, they may affect compression ratio. Because there was not a simultaneous change in compression ratios throughout the years with both engines, it doesn't appear that you could accurately speculate what the difference is. I guess somebody needs to crack 'em open and pull out the calipers. It would've been so easy the other way. Darn... |

BAD NEWS ABOUT PISTONS
Hey guys, I went to subaru dealership service today and inquired about the 92-93 Legacy pistons (2.2L) and their difference with the SVX's... they are quite different in size. Legacy pistons are bigger in diameter than the SVX's they said. SVX pistons are smaller ... any comments ??

I have a chilton's manual at home that will have th eBore and Stroke of the EJ22 and the EG33, I'll try to remember to look it up, but I'm pretty sure they are the same...just like the EA82 and the ER27

This may be really dumb, but I have had this thought for a while.
Can turbos be mounted vertically? I would say there is enough room to sqeeze two of them in behind the heads with the compressor sides up. You would have to move some wiring and such, but it looks like enough space. That way, you have a short pipe from the exhaust manifold to the bottom of each turbo, and back out to the exhaust. The inlets get piped to each fender, and the compressor outputs to a collector and a single sensor to the stock TB. Still no intercooler , although a top-mount may get in under the hood especially if it is long and parallel to the windshield (maybe even follow the curve). I see a problem with heat rising from the exhaust side of the turbo hitting the intake stream, but the piping would be so short that it would probably not matter that much (especially with some shielding). There must be a reason why this does not work since I have never seen a turbo standing up before... |

Elvis,
The biggest problem I see with a turbo setup where you are describing, is that the driver's side has several components that the passenger side doesn't, like the steering column, the starter, the auto tranny coolent lines, transmission dipstick....a lot of crap on the driver's side to have to work around... As for mounting a turbo on it's side...I have no ideal...but if you can, it would be a much better set-up, so I figure there's a reason they don't...or everyone would mount them that way (I assume it because it would side load the bearings...but that's just a guess....
