I owned an L wagon with push putton 4*4

I would shut the a/c off just to make it up a hill

long live the constant struggle to make any power from the 2.2 wagon i think without a turbo there not a lot you can do. I have tried the most obvious up grades and an catback/intake/computer can only do so much. But they look way more badass than the bug eyes.

I think people are still missing that I'm talking about a 1.8 LITER engine! EJ18!

carbed or FI?

bangor · « **Reply #9 on:** September 22, 2004, 04:29:29 PM »

If FI = Forced Induction = Turbo, then no.

skyphix · « **Reply #10 on:** September 22, 2004, 05:57:05 PM »

fuel injection.

Not forced injection.

bugeyes · « **Reply #11 on:** September 22, 2004, 10:17:21 PM »

lol forced injection... sounds like rabies shot or somethin

bangor · « **Reply #12 on:** September 23, 2004, 07:44:26 AM »

hahahahaha, i said inDUCTion, but whatever. forced injection is funnier anyway

skyphix · « **Reply #13 on:** September 23, 2004, 09:16:36 AM »

HAH... thats what I get for posting from work $:-\$

Anyway, if its carbed, people are putting bigger (mostly webber) carbs on them, having the intake and exhaust manifolds ported (which you could do even if it were FUEL injected), and having the heads ported.

expensive? i really don't know what half of this stuff is yet. i'm still kinda new to the car tech thing.

skyphix · « **Reply #15 on:** September 23, 2004, 06:36:15 PM »

Some of it is expensive, some isn't (if you're FI, its probably going to be expensive). What year 1.8 is it?

homurcules · « **Reply #16 on:** September 23, 2004, 10:59:00 PM »

are there even carbuarated 1.8 impreza's? or did he say it's a loyale?

bangor · « **Reply #17 on:** September 24, 2004, 12:30:39 PM »

it's a 96........... thanks to the great brighton package. which included nothing.

skyphix · « **Reply #18 on:** September 30, 2004, 09:00:46 AM »

I had absolutely no clue what kind of car he drove... so I didnt know if it was like an 87 Wagon or a 96 Loyale.

1.8 L 1-barrel Carburetor, <80 Horsepower 3-Spead Auto, Push-button 4wd. Oh yea, the 83 Subaru GL 4wd Wagon.
