I very strongly suggest you do not run a meth system without including a low/high flow rate sensor and a tank level sensor. Just using a low flow warning does not detect punctured lines after the sensor, or stuck-on solenoids. I would also strongly suggest that you do more with this warning than jus...

well you don't need one..... and you won't find one that matches our old legacy, as far as I know. Installing a turbo timer is the same for all vehicles. Just follow the directions, they will tell you where to put the wires. I love mine for warm ups What makes you think I dont need one? Because you...

~5psi is "wastegate pressure", ie your MBC is not doing anything but directly connecting the wastegate to the charge pipe. If you just took the wastegate hose and plugged it into the pressurized section of the intake with no boost controller whatsoever, you would get the exact same effect....

I am pushing around 350 dynojet whp on a 2.5" system with a resonator and a prodrive axleback. That being said, I think it's restricting the power a little bit up top. I'm going to throw on a silly loud N1 3" system just to see what the difference is and take it to the dyno, so we'll see i...

K. New question here! I was wondering...Is it at all possiable to Hybrid a VF11 with another VF series turbo?? Because it REALLY like when the stock turbo kicks in at low boost. Basiclly i just want a turbo that have like 1 bar or higher that can still offer fantasic low end power! Really i just wa...

I think the turbo just got that hot because the driver is a crazy turkish guy. Seriously guys, if you think your turbo doesn't start to glow when it's being run hard, then you need to spend a little more time on google image search. It's also not necessary to use a hood or headlights but that doesn'...

You can get a DC sport up-pipe for less than half the price from gruppe-s.

I've hit my engine with a pressure washer tons of times with no consideration for electronics, never had a problem.

Well theres no really big items left to purchase... Clutch, transmission, engine, turbo, EM, suspension, seats, fueling, wheels, tires.... Ive got them all I need a roll cage, but that wont be coming in the mail ;) it could, when matt #1 did his cage it came in a big box. Then his cage probably isn...

turbo gc's ftw

ramathorn, you don't play WoW do you?

Turn down the boost? Seriously, if you want gas milage, a 15 year old awd turbo car is probably not the best bet. Worn out engine components, worn transmission components, and rusty/dirty/gummed up drivetrain components all contribute to this problem. Even in neutral, my car is much harder to push t...

Also keep in mind that there is no such thing as a EJ20DET or a "red top" subaru engine. And if you thought wiring a nissan swap was hard, you might want to leave this one to a shop

Do you have approx milage / condition on the LSD?

Is 3.9 the stock turbo FD?

A solstace is way more of a girl's car than a 2g miata. Throw some projectors and a hardtop on a black 2nd gen...sticky tires, black chunky wheels...flyin' miata turbo kit...mmmm. All for less than the price of a solstace. This is a first-gen, but you get the idea: http://www.triplezoom.com/news/upl...

#2 suggestion. Sell it and buy a turbo one.

perhaps a subaru is the wrong choice of car? No, it is the right car. No other car can do every single racing stile and be daily driver, all at the same time. Only Subaru can servive my spirited driving. Jump 2 feet in the air every time I go to work, racing at the track every month, creating new o...

Where did you get the V5 bumper from?

If you want a two-seat roadster why not score a 2nd gen miata and badass it up?

N/A open class, you are brave!

IMO, the legacy isn't really that competitive even in P4 anymore, what with WRX's and STi's getting ecu remapping and still staying class legal. You might as well build the best car you can reasonably afford and then go have fun irregardless of class.

Why not just buy a usdm WRX motor for a couple thousand and drop that in? Exhaust + tune gets you ~270hp and you pretty much have OEM stock reliablity. Yup, the N/A build is probably smoother to drive and it's pretty cool too, but I think matt did the right thing by calling it a finished build at th...

Just dont do like me and build up a Legacy SS... Being a rookie driver, I was not allowed to enter due to starting out in a turbo awd car, so now I'm going with a little dodge omni until I get my status up a bit.. A shame though, my Legacy was all ready for an engine rebuild, after I rebuilt everyt...

I had similar problems, ended up using vice grips, a breaker bar, and a hammer to get the last nut off.

i wish i could have came out to the rally i was super busy that weekend

Hahaha, there are a few yeah. There's a good one of me doing a last minute turbo swap.

The wheels are 2000-ish impreza TS, spraypainted black.

Hey guys, I'm looking for racing pads but it seems hard to find anything for the legacy turbo fronts. Hoping for something like a ferodo 3000 or 4003. No grip when cold is not an issue.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
