Oh and my best of the day was a
r/t 1.26
60' 2.46
330' 6.92
1/8 10.68
mph 65.29

Hit my rev limiter at the end. I'm stock except a 3" turbo back, K&N filter and removed snorkus. I'm going to go back when I get my tmic plumbed in with more boost and try again. Hopefully get some 1/4 times too.

Wow

. 14.4 and low 1.9 60'? That's awesome man! You are all up in stock WRX territory. If only I would get my intercooler and exhaust on

He does have a TD05, although I'm curious whether its the small or big 16G.

Mark,

FrmRgz2Rchz · Post by **FrmRgz2Rchz** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 6:52 pm

I'm pretty sure it's the small 16g. It came off the early wrx. I wanted to turn the boost up some more and make another run, but I was a little timid in doing so because I don't have an EGT or A/F gauge to see where I'm at on fuel.

Once I get a S-AFC hooked up, which is sitting in my room right now, and get some gauges in there, i'm gonna try and push 18-20 pounds. I know the turbo can handle it. I just hope our beefy engine can take the abuse. I have a spare, so i ain't sceered

So, I have been looking for a 5spd leg turbo of and on for a while now but some of these times have me wondering...

Gzmo (or somehting like that, sorry) - ran a 16.6@82.2 at Bandi, my 5spd '98 Leg ran a 16.8@81.75 at Bandi(although it was 65F when I ran, and 92F when he ran... so that will make a Huge difference too)

my question is, what kinda time would a 5spd pull in this situation... 0.5s quicker? so his would run a 16.1 - and a sub 16 with cooler wheather.
Do you all think I could get a 5spd to pull a 14.9 up here (5900'ASL) with intercooler, exhaust, boost controler, AFC???? (about a 14.2 at sea level) and do it reliably

hmmmm, continue to look for the turbo Leg, or move on to the Galant VR4? I like subies much more, but i need a fast ride.

just rambling....

Yeah, I think you could do it. A lot of guys are running down into the low thirteens and high twelves with what you listed as add-ons. Realize that the US Legacy Turbo is way tuned down. it doesn't have an intercooler, the boost is only set to 8.7 psi (my brother's 91 eclipse came with 12 or 14 stock, and if I had an intercooler and that much boost I think I'd have more power and be able to beat it.).

In a magazine article I read, doing some modification to the exhaust, adding an intercooler and raising hte boost to 12 alone gave the writer a little over 210 hp. That's a 50 hp difference. The boost is still not exceeding the fuel cut, and I don't think they necissarily had the best flowing exhaust.

FrmRgz2Rchz · Post by **FrmRgz2Rchz** » Thu Jan 08, 2004 7:32 pm

I think my best time was a 15.6 with the stock turbo, saab intercooler, 12 psi, and an ACT clutch. My intercooler piping was ghetto and kept leaking. I got the time after I got everything tightened...well, for the most part. I later found out that my recirculating bosch bov was leaking hardcore. With my current greddy bov and my new intercooler piping, I'm sure I could have ran low 15's with those same mods. With an exhaust, I bet 14's would have been attainable.

But I'm dumb, and bought the td05 before I had anything else and the car was actually slower. I'm down to 14.4 right now with stock downpipe. When I get the downpipe in, use turbo blue and run 20psi, I think I'll be satisfied with my time.

farfrumwork · Post by **farfrumwork** » Thu Jan 08, 2004 8:56 pm

Thanks!

also a 16.6@82 in 90+ weather with an auto is great up here, I saw an auto wrx run a 16.6 too (in cooler weather, ~80) but had a bit better trap IIRC (proabably due to cooler temps).

anyhow, I seems that an intercooler/BC (12psi)/exhaust/downpipe would yield a ~14.7@93+ - adding a bigger turbo would put it in the low-mid 14's with 97-99mph traps - -- that ain't shabby for, what, $800 + a used turbo ~$400 = $1200

feasible? sounds good to me!

-Chad
now to find that nice 5spd....

FrmRgz2Rchz · Post by **FrmRgz2Rchz** » Fri Jan 09, 2004 5:00 am

The times are kinda accurate, but the trap speeds are off a bit. If you trap 97-99mph, you are probly running in the 13's.

farfrumwork · Post by **farfrumwork** » Fri Jan 09, 2004 6:28 pm

yeah, I was rethinking that after I posted my pie-in-the-sky benchracing numbers - haha (and my current clutch situation has me thinking like a fwd owner - lame)

so yup, a 97-99 trap should be a high 13. I'd shoot for a mid 14 first I think (intercooler/BC/turboback), then a bigger turbo and tuning for the 13's.... BUT, I guess I need the car first 'eh?

thanks for the input!

Just for comparison sake, since nobodys mentioned it. Bone stock 1/4 mile times claimed by magazines and subaru alike are 16.0 for the 5MT sedan, and 16.3 for the auto sedan. I can see mid to low 14's easy with more boost, intercooler and turbo-back.

Mark,

evolutionmovement · Post by **evolutionmovement** » Fri Jan 09, 2004 11:20 pm

Whoever did those runs to get 16 and 16.3 for turbos must have been horrible or not corrected for elevation or something. My fwd 5MT wagon ran a 16.3@82 or 83. Though, that was about 100k ago.

LegacyT · Post by **LegacyT** » Sat Jan 10, 2004 12:07 am

wow 16.3 for a N/A fwd wagon is pretty damn good, my buddys ran in the 17's

and we're at 400' ASL elevation.

Mark,

evolutionmovement · Post by **evolutionmovement** » Sat Jan 10, 2004 12:39 am

New tires and the right match of revs and clutch work (as much luck as skill in my case). I thought it was pretty good, too, but my 260Z would run like a low 17 and it felt a lot slower than this car was. I know it would never do it now, though, some assmonkey in a late nineties Mountaineer (!) outran me yesterday.

FrmRgz2Rchz · Post by **FrmRgz2Rchz** » Thu Jan 15, 2004 7:12 pm

My FWD automatic legacy ran a 17.3 at 78mph. Everyone always thought it was fast when they rode in it. I didn't get as many of the "HOLY SH*T"s as I do now, though.

rsstiboy · Post by **rsstiboy** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 10:45 pm

the australian RS claimed to do a 14.8 1/4 stock! I did a 13.79@99MPH before I did any of my new mods, that was just intake exhaust and 14psi

douglas vincent · Post by **douglas vincent** » Sun Apr 10, 2005 9:52 am

15.2 with a bad clutch, 7 psi on NA engine and ECU.

Innovative Tuning · Post by **Innovative Tuning** » Wed Apr 20, 2005 5:23 pm

went down the track in one of my legacy SS's for fun last week. 15.2-15.3 at 87-88.0 MPH. I ran the same time 4 times in a row basically. 2.0-2.1 60'

10.8 psi was the highest recorded over all the runs. It has a turboback exhaust, cone filter, boost controller. As far as power it's stock otherwise except it has no AC anymore. I don't know what it weighs as I haven't put it on a scale. I'm running a Type RA geared WRX box and WRX rear end/axles.

well since no one has posted a time in a while i think i may have the fastest north america time until phil or matt go to the track.

automatic trans on stock everything plus 16 gallons of gas neted 17.3 on the quarter

today at 10 psi running an air filter at 5000 feet my slowest posted time was a 16.39

at 15 psi with no air filter i posted a 14.94 with a trap getting close to 95 about 92 or so. on full weight plus my tools and wet clothes from autox

launch at 2100 brake stall.

that and it was wet. on the track

BAC5.2 · Post by **BAC5.2** » Tue Apr 26, 2005 7:23 pm

I ran a 15.6 on 10psi at 93 or 94 mph with a 2.4 60' and hitting fuel cut at the top of 3rd just before the line. Launch at 3500, almost full weight (full tank of gas, no spare).

Matt ran a 15.4 at 16psi on 3 cylinders.

I should be mid 13's without any problem. Matt should be right behind me once he gets things sorted back out.

Da Svenska, day run wit da boost turned up way to da sky. It's cuz da ya need dat boost to plow tru da snow ya right.

Har en kop kaffe? uhhhh I don't think i spelled that right.

Ya, Tack!

I met Stig Blomqvist this weekend. He sure is a quiet guy. Really jolly tho.

azn2nr · Post by **azn2nr** » Wed Apr 27, 2005 1:25 am

i was running 15.6 on 10 psi but looking at my speedo my trap was no where near 90's. i think 15.6 was actualy my best at 10 psi. when i did the 14.9 it was on 15 psi and my trap was in the 90's.

i cant wait till i do dry runs with less weight.

BAC5.2 · Post by **BAC5.2** » Wed Apr 27, 2005 10:02 am

I was in the 90's by a bit. None of my traps were below 90 on any of my sub 16 second runs.

There was a guy there with a white N/A wagon that Vikash enjoyed racing. His first run, he was against me. My 1/8th mile trap was 8mph higher than his 1/4 mile trap speed.

I predict that I'll be in the 100mph club this year

Fastest 3 cylinder on da east coast, yo!

That run was my only FC free run but I blew my turbo to ic line about 200' from the 1/4 too. I think it would have been in the 14's if it had stayed on.

I should be mid 13's without any problem. Matt should be right behind me once he gets things sorted back out.

I know you're over worked Phil and very tired and all cause I'm sure it was just a typo and that you meant that I'd be right in front of you, not behind.

Moohahahahaha
