04 subaru baja engine

I need to replace the 2.5 L Turbo engine. What engines are compatible. Legacy? Outback? What years?

it’s an 04 by the way

Today, engines are computer matched to the vehicles they are installed in. You can’t just “drop in another engine” like the old days and expect it to work properly…If emissions testing and resale value are not an issue, and you are very clever, sometimes you can get something to work…

good to know…thanks. I have heard rumors of available engines out of Japan and know someone who bought an engine for a Forester and he he did well and saved allot of money. any views on this subject?
