Re: 92 Legacy BOV

So no bov. Good to know! So with running an aftermarket bpv would that increase sound at all? Or am I better to just save money for a future tmic or fmic setup?

Cool cool. Ill replace the valve cover gaskets and grommets in there too and go from there!

Re: New to subaru

Thanks for the replies everyone!! 91 it is then!! Also the oil leak onto the exhaust, now you can look and see that the valve covers are weaping/leaking but how likely is it that it could actually be a leaking head gasket? Cars got 140,xxx KMS. (not miles). It runs great, no studders or anything. Co...
