Re: Price Reduced $3,200 5mt 2.4 Legacy SS

Man this thing gets passed around.. $3200 is a damn good deal. I hope whoever gets this puts a little more money & effort into it to really get the potential out of the build and fix little things.

Well.. took some time to install it last night/today, had to bypass a pin & switch the trigger wires but I got the dis-2 installed. That box is huge. I stuffed it behind the driver side strut tower on the firewall. I'm getting a bit better at wiring stuff & soldering. Its currently wired dir...

I decided to run the chipped ecu a bit longer and after a good reset & checking a few things.. It runs okay & its boosting pretty well 14/15psi is a nice bump from 10 but during this brief period I was hoping the ECU might adjust as the AFR at idle and most all the time, is still just too le...

Re: randomiams 1993 Legacy SS with bonus TW action within!

Hmm.. I may have to look into that.. I have another bung I might be able to move it back into. I took my greytop 440's to one of the Doctor Injector's, the one in Renton.. Little more expensive than WitchHunter but it was quick and O-rings etc were replaced with it. $28per, I think? It showed a 7/8%...

Re: randomiams 1993 Legacy SS with bonus TW action within!

wideband is in.. little more wiring than I like to do so my room mate helped me tackle it. Worked without a hitch.. not sure where I want to mount the gauge but I'll tackle that soon.

now the over analyzing of my AFR can begin.. and lots of reading. Pictures to come later

Re: randomiams 1993 Legacy SS with bonus TW action within!

Changed directions on he exhaust plan a bit. It seems that the most cost effective way to have a nice (& long lasting) free flowing exhaust is to grab a WRX aftermarket option.. Stainless custom fabricated & mandrel bent is a pretty pricy option & I grabbed a invidia n1 catback setup off...

Re: 91 SS Engine died tonight

The only way you blow a whole in the block like that is driving it way too long with a rod knock, I know because I had a motor that this happened to (not mine, thank god).. Youtube the shit out of various sounds because that would have sounded quite a bit different than something like lifter tick an...

Re: randomiams 1993 Legacy SS with bonus TW action within!

Got my ECU but I'm still waiting on more supporting stuff. Dropped downpipe off at Muffler Shoppe in White Center per Roberts suggestion, seems to be a good one so far. Adding two more 02 bungs because the one on the downpipe itself is much different than our stock location so I want the option to m...

Re: Mike's 1991 Subaru Legacy SS

I get pretty poor gas mileage but are you sure you are calculating it right Kimo? Reset the odometer after your next fillup and then next time around, divide the miles driven by the gas it took to fill back up to get the actual number Our tanks are supposed to be 15.9 right?

Re: BPV question, compressor surge?
