EJ22 in 99 Forester
I have a 99 Forester (EJ25 Phase 2) I would like to install a EJ22 Phase 1 motor. Any advice on what year would be the best donor motor? Or would it be best to install a EJ22 Phase 2? I am looking for a plug and play if possible. But I do not mind making the wiring to work. Thanks, Todd

Are you looking to install a turbo motor or a N/A motor? If it's the former, there is no "plug and play". If it's the latter, why would you want to do that?

I just want a N/A motor. The Forester has 190000 miles on it. The 2.5 has a large hole in the block where it looks like a rod let go. I am just looking for a economy vehicle. I am planning on putting a used engine in it and the 2.5 is alot higher than the 2.2. Plus I have heard about HG problems on the 2.5. I am looking for some advice from the experts. Thanks, Todd

find another 2.5
as the ecu is maped for a 2.5 not a 2.2 ... and thus will have all sorts of mapping issues (least of which would be gas mileage) Last edited by Jaxx; 04-13-2008 at 03:49 PM. Reason: typo |
