ej25 phases
can someone tell me all the phases that the EJ25 went through all of the years and possibly what were the main diffrences of each? i read about the headgasket problems but were there any more? also the horsepower changes and which would you prefer overall?

Re: ej25 phases
The headgasket problem was with the DOHC EJ25 that came in the '98 2.5RS, there isn't a head gasket issue with the SOHC EJ25.
As for horsepower changes, there haven't been any that I have ever heard of. |

The DOHC was Phase 1 and SOHC was Phase 2.
Both had the same peak hp and torque numbers but the SOHC had a slightly better power curve. Between that and the head gasket thing, I'd rather have a SOHC Phase 2 if I was on a budget. On a monster build up I'd probably rather have a DOHC Phase 1 just for DOHC's ability to manage airflow better. |
