New turbo for the subaru
When I first built it I had a gen 1 7875 vs racing boy on it.
Then swapped to a 3584rs. The instant boost is nice and since its a street car should just leave it alone but i cant so I picked up this pulsar to see what thats like
Baby turbo next to the new guy
summit 8715R1
Tremec magnum
Version 1 with 7875
Version 2 with 3584rs
Progress of version 3 with 7375. Still gotta fab rest of exhaust off turbo. Fitting a 4in is gonna be tight

This is an awesome build. Thanks for sharing it with the community. Totally unassuming sitting in a parking lot with the wheels and overall look, just another Subie. Then you fire it up and roll out, and it definitely makes people stop and scratch their heads.
Thanks for running our SUM-8715R1 Ghost Cam. Based on what you’ve shown, it's a great fit for the combo.
The RWD conversion is wild too. Curious to hear how that changes the handling and overall driving feel with the LS up front compared to the factory boxer engine and AWD setup.
Really cool to see an LS-swapped RWD Subie. You don’t see many done like this, and it’s a great example

Better in every aspect compared to the btr cam I had in it honestly
The handling is surprisingly better than expected. In stock subaru form the front axles come straight out of the transmission putting the entire weight of the engine in front of the wheels along with the weight of the diff and trans all the way up to the axles. The ls is centered over the axle along with no abs or a/c and all the related components.
Throttling through a turn does produce more over steer than a factory car now though...as expected

That makes a lot of sense about weight distribution, and yes having all that weight past the front axle over the nose isn't good for handling. Now with the LS RWD and the extra power only going to the rear wheels in a "short" wheelbase car, having some over steer? Sounds like some fun times as long as you can keep it under ya

And a little for the driveshaft too as it's larger diameter than the factory one
Being a dad and a responsible adult is really ruining all my play time... haha
And I need to finish up the 2650 install on my buddies obs 1500 lt4 swap truck.
The cradles front and rear are made by a guy in Washington tssfab.us. he makes alot of quality subaru bits.
He now makes a cradle that will hold a ford 8.8
