Re: HELP! Need Subaru Tech: (Still have wrong harness.)

To Warren,
Warren, It appears that you are relatively close to Ron's and my vanagon loctaions in Mendocino county. You might want to make a trip up here before you install your engine to see what it looks

Re: HELP! Need Subaru Tech: (Still have wrong harness.)
Hobert will tell you (and did in the instructions) that the automatic subaru harness is ok. Most Subarus are automatic. My wrecking yard sent everything! It included an additional controller box

Subaru Torque
Can anyone comment on the difference in low RPM torque (1500-2500 rpm) between the 2.2 Sub conversion and the standard 2.1L WBX. Is the Sub better or worse?
