Hey guys, I want to install an ej15 engine in my 1998 bg5. What are the pros and cons? And what do I need to check when buying a new ecu for this new engine? Anything else i'd have to alter in the car'

Why would you swap the already sluggish 2.2 for a 1.5 litre?

I know they are a newer motor but still

No Subaru computer will just slot in without a rewire

Massive job that will consume far more than the value of the car.

 

What is the advantage of running the EJ15?


If I told you I was a compulsive liar, would you believe me?
