Hi Neil..got a 98 forester gt obviously boost friendly but only comes with a tiny TF035...my TD04 will be going on to start with. One neat thing that came with it is this alloy header tank...much better than the plastic falcon one i'm using馃憤

The TF035 is a wast of time and more suited to one of the air cooled guys so move it on. In a heavy bus the TD04 is better suited , or go for a VF34 for a blast as you have yellow 440 cc injectors you on a winner. Yep those tanks are the best you can get

Can I semi hijack on here please? Ta 馃槈

Anyone know if EJ20 Nat Asp and EJ20 Turbo exhaust ports are the same?
I'm wondering if I can fit a aftermarket Turbo header onto my Nat Asp EJ20.

Cheers

I would say yes馃憤 I just swapped over my homemade headers from the EJ22 to the EJ20T the inlet manifolds are a different story tho

If your ej20 n/a motor is a quad cam. Your block will be a closed deck case c/w oil squirters like the early wrx turbo motors of that year. Its a good case with very poor pistons & rods , however swap them out and fit turbo heads , rods & pistions and you have a very good motor
