Ok so here is the deal...i have a 99 obs with a phase 2 ej22 (MAP). I'am wanting to swap in an ej251 from an 01 legacy. yes i know the basic workings of a subaru.
i really would like to swap everything engine related from the ej251 into my car.
ecu
ej251
intake manifold
if i swap all that into my car i'm thinking i would not have to swap intake manifolds and cam, crank sensors and all that stuff. i could understand using the ej22 intake manifold and sensors if the ej251 ecu was not being used.
and yes these are phase 2 engines. i know the difference. i know im going from single port to dual port and yes i do have the dual port head pipe (unequal). both engines are map based.
will the ecu and complete engine with intake manifold be a turn key operation? trying to clarify because some people say you must use your intake and sensors and change some of the sprockets. just seems alot easier since i have the ecu to make the engine run properly.
thanks
