Hey guys ,I'm new to the subie world. I've got a 93 2.2 legacy motor. How is the best way to get more power out of it and still have a daily driver. I would like close to 200 plus hp.If possible, maybe turbo? Thanks guys from Oregon

To get 200+ hp out of a N/A 2.2 would require so many mods that you would be better off getting a factory turbo motor and whacking that in. possibly out of a rs liberty or early wrx. In the long run it will be cheaper, and wont break.
That way you will have a reliable stock motor with around 220+ hp and will be fast enough for your needs.

Best to go turbo...and by that I mean swap for a turbo motor, not bolt one to your motor.
otherwise talk to this guy about n/a mods LOL
