1997 impreza Turbo 2000 AWD - Turbo??
Hi guys
im new.. so quick hi!.... just got my impreza turbo wednesday lastweek and loving it!!!
i have a question tho......... in 1997 on this model i read they used a smaller turbo too gain quicker pickup? anyone able too tell me what Turbo was actually used??? so i can find out what boost i can run it on maximum? with the standard intercooler for now until i get my front mounted one.
Also...my friend has a 1994 Sti scooby... which hes ordered a Stage2 HKS turbo for.... im wondering if i can fit his standard Sti turbo on mine??? and send my turbo back as the exchange unit then...
Many thanks

It's fitted with a Td04 as standard, good for about 280-290 bhp max. I believe the maximum boost that can sensibly be run with this turbo is about 1.25 bar but if you are going to do this you will want to have a knocklink fitted, if you don't already have one, so you can be sure the engine isn't detting and about to die. Also, it'd be a good idea to get it checked out to make sure it's not running too lean at full throttle / boost.

Hi, thanks for the reply mate
also, my friend has a Motec M48 Pro management system im buying off him, he says it will be good for almost 300bhp when mapped???
His car was on the front of Banzai magazine few months back.... Silver Type-R 460BHP
currently sitting in the UK with a 2.5l engine and will be 560BHP minimum when it arrives back!

I have Td04 running 1.3 bar and peaks at 1.40 sometimes with no problems! All monitored and controlled by a power FC. Get very low "knock" levels which are alot less than what the standard ecu runs!
