2.0R Heads on Turbo EJ20
Hello everyone,
Not a while ago I heard from a friend of mine, that the 2.0R heads are being used in turbo ej20 cars due to having AVCS. We have a few 2.0R engines lying around and was wondering if I should try this.
I am having concerns, as those heads are made for N/a cars and I do not want to rebuild the engine after a month or two due to the heads failing. The 2.0R engine that I am going to use was previously turbocharged, but the guys who did the work f'ked up and it lasted about 4000 kilometres before throwing the rods.
I was not able to find any information over internet and that's why I am asking if someone is having first hand data regarding this.
Kind regards,
Denimir

Yes, you can use them, but do have a small combustion chamber, they require work before fitting to a turbo engine, there is no drain connection for the turbo, its there but requires machining, I use them as for a 2.0 head they are crack free around the spark plug bosses.

Thank you for your reply! May I ask if you did yourself a conversation like this and is it only the drain connection that needs to be machined before fitting them? Also, I would appreciate if you can provide with any information or comparison between the stock WRX heads and the 2.0R heads on a turbo car. Moreover, those heads are going to be used in a GC8 with closed deck motor if it makes any difference.

Also your WRX heads are not avc's equipped.
