Yeah, i just remember the RPMs coughed for a bit when I modded my airbox, so I thought the ECU went back into learning mode, but I'll keep all suggestions open so this doesn't happen to the point to where it WONT start

Tried to start my 94 legacy today & I have a feeling the ECU reset or maybe the fuel pump relay tripped... The car would crank, but just cough for about 5 minutes, and finally when it DID start, the car coughed alot as I was putting the throttle down... almost sounds as if an injector got clogge...

Another idea i had was to hack it, put the airbox upside down, (filter up, ) and cut in a scoop in the hood, but i think i'll save that for another thread for when i'm actually serious about a mod

I can post pics later, but I managed To put an extension on , & mount my stock air box w/ hacked bottom inside my fender.. actually runs pretty decent that way. not exactly a race car class mod, but for free? (3$ for extension) it helps dish out a little more from the bottom end of the rpms

Yeah usually they will show right at top, even when car is warmed up, but if you leave it for a couple minutes, it will eventually work it's way down...The only peeve i have about the old legacys is the PITA it is to put in coolant BECAUSE you can't just fill to the line, you have to sit & babys...

Easy one.... had this problem a couple times. Burp your radiator... open the cap & let the car warm up... keep pouring coolant in as it "burps" air out, and once the coolant hits top level and stops, (40 or so minutes worth of doing this PITA) you should be good. VERY TINY air bubbles ...

OH and another note... when doing "said" modification.... don't put your hand on the TB or MAF while hitting throttle cable because your buddy told you to.. really easy way to lose a perfectly tasty cigarette

Tried a different suggestion that really works nicely.. drop in the K&N, get a saw & hack off the bottom part of the airbox past the mounting screws.. this way' you have something to hold the filter in, but open on the bottom end. nice way to mod the intake, and the HP gain isn't much, but s...

It's not a tank.. it's a direct drive compressor, about the size of a pop can, really (they make bigger ones for bigger rigs)... brilliant supercharger design.. (unlike the computer fan in your CAI layout on ebay) looks like the initial drive uses about 5 different gears simutaneously to crank the t...

Quite sure all that's gonna happen if you blow in it is it's going to suck far more air than you can blow and you'll end up getting the air sucked right out of your lungs haha! Especially when you hit the accelerator. You may even collapse a lung. Wouldn't do that if I were you. Especially being su...

Very scientific DYNO sheet you provided there... ROTFL.... I just figured it would make a nice idea to babble over, but I also reailzed if it were that simple, alot of turbo companies would be pissed and broke.. I had the same idea for a portable 5hp shopvac, (reverse the hose) but that would requir...

Really? Well I guess if it tells the motor that less air is passing that what really is, maybe.. there would have to be something else though, resulting in reverse airflow

I had this happen on an old justy once.... You mean that there is air BLOWING through your intake instead of sucking it in? Sounds like either your timing belt broke (Really hyper sounding crank) or you have a stuck valve that is holding the intake valve open, maybe? My only guess is that the exaust...

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000RNWHLA?smid=A2Y624Y5TXKSKI&tag=nextag-auto-delta-20&linkCode=asn So i recently ran into this little item @ Harbor freight today, and I thought it would be funny to have these little squeakers as a horn. Once I got into it & realized that it uses a direct driv...

Sounds good. i'll have to act soon, so i may be just getting a heating pad or something like that, because i just found out i have inflammation going on and it's pinching my nerves, so my right leg goes COMPLETELY numb after sitting for a 1/2 hour. thanks for your input though. i didn't know they ma...

thank you! i am pretty excited about modding my car out, to make it run nice off the road. i don't know if i'll get serious about auto-x or rally, i just know i do take it off the road often & play with it a little

i honestly couldn't tell ya. i'm a rookie right now, i'm still learning about subaru's . i just know they're lego's for adults.

will do. any knowledge of seats i can get for cheap or better yet, anyone who's selling an oback for cheap?

i've been meaning to get an OBW especially because of the height & suspension, but my budget is low right now, and the medical bills are kickin my heinie

well i guess i can just try, and if it doesn't bolt on, that's what a drill bit's for, lol. make new spots to bolt up! now i just gotta figure out where i can get em for cheap, because i don't want the car to look stupid with ONE leather seat, but i don't think the LSi had leather in the wagons tho?

that's quite alright with me.. i think i can probably get some cheap rocker switches from auto zone, and use them, and as far as the rest, wiring is my middle name

MMMkay, i'll give it a whirl... i'll call dougie & see if he has any for cheap. do they still have the lumbar option, because i do worship that. and this is off topic, but i was just looking @ mufflers because mine is cracked... the cherry bomb (not glasspack) turbo mufflers 2"inlet 2 - 2 1...

i'm a new user to the site. a guy i worked with @ super-rupair sent me here. I drive a 92 Legacy L Wagon N/A and i have a slipped disc in my back. the car is a very comfortable ride at times, but sometimes long trips get painful and i REALLY hurt getting in/ out of the car. is there a way i can lift...

I picked up a generic cone filter from autozone for like 30 bucks. the mod was simple improv. I took out the airbox, and pulled out the little gold flange it used to connect to the MAF, use a sawzall to cut pipe back 3 inches, refit the MAF to new location, & used a silicone gasket maker to seal...
