So the past couple of days everytime I go to start my car I have to push the gas in in order for it to start. I have 2 new fuel injectors new wires an plugs. The plugs are copper. It just started so ik it can't be the plugs I haven't touched them in a month. Or could it be? Any help will be appriated. Btw I have a 94 legacy SS.

Awesome.... Now what's the most I can push thru my car? Like fuel pump wise. I'm trying to slowly build my car to make it as fast as I can. So I like to make nice improvements when things go out. Or would a bigger fuel pump not be a smart thing.

Get a fuel pressure tester and check fuel pressure and bleed down before you do anything. The fuel pump should prime the system prior to starting.

Does it only give you problems starting when the engine is cold, or does it do the same thing when it's "hot"

odds are it does it almost all the time if the car sits for more then an hour right?
my brothers car did the same thing and then he built a completely brand new wagon and it still does it
the only thing the same from the two cars is the fuel pump

Yeah it does it warm or cold. So my fuel pump is bad?

my educated guess is your fuel pump
your best bet is to grab a walbro 255 should be able to find one under 100$ on nasioc

Best place to buy them is wallbro255.com. That's where I got mine and it was shipped out right away. Here's a link to the fuel pump kit $95+free shipping.

Ok that one says it's for the impreza. Is that just bc it flows the correct amount for the impreza? Will I have to modify anything to install that? And if so what?

It doesn't matter whether it says it's for an Impreza. That pump & kit is a direct fitment for the Legacy.
