Vehicle Fitments

2004-2006 Subaru Forester XT (SG9 Chassis)


Swap Note: This is a JDM 2.0L replacement for the USDM 2.5L EJ255. It is a popular swap due to the scarcity and cost of USDM 2.5L blocks.

 

Included Parts

Complete Engine Long Block (Block and DOHC Dual AVCS Heads)


• Intake Manifold & TGV Assemblies


• Fuel Rails & Injectors


• Turbocharger & Exhaust Manifold


• Alternator, AC Compressor, & Power Steering Pump (Bonus accessories)


• Coil Packs & Engine Sensors

 

Installation & Swap Notes

 

• USDM Conversion: You must us this as a long block and transfer everything over from the 2.5L for 100% plug-and-play ECU compatibility.

 

• Dual AVCS Wiring: The USDM Forester XT harness does not support Exhaust AVCS. Most installers either leave the exhaust cams unplugged (locked) or run additional wiring to a standalone or JDM ECU.


Oil Pan & Components: You may need to transfer your original USDM oil pan, pickup, and specific sensors for fitment and ground clearance.


Maintenance: We strongly recommend a new timing belt kit, water pump, and spark plugs before installation.
