Nitros on the EJ25

Post by 5050GRIP »

So I have a NA 2.5 Baja with over 200K on her, well kept motor and drivetrain. I just think the power is lethargic at best. 0-60 is not worth recording. Its a heavy vehicle mated to a 165hp 4cyc, so I got to thinking about either doing a turbo swap, turbo install or just drop in Zex 75 kit.
The bolt on turbo option may not fair well with the high mileage engine as the constant boost would keep too much strain on the motor at all times even it it will be low boost. So why not a shot kit, the motor wont be under stress all the time and with only a 75 shot most any motor can handle that.
Looking for feedback from anyone who has done the nitrous injection on a Subaru EJ25, would be appreciated, thank you?
