View Full Version : Tuner support?
The WRX in the US has great tuner support, but what about the Legacy. I think our best bet on good solid tuning would be from Cobb Tuning. Ive been out there and they are great guys... and Subaru only unlike many of the other tuners out there. Maybe I should send Trey an email?

Of course we have STi, but that can be pricey.

I'm willing to bet they'll give us at least 280hp (crank) with their re-flash if and when they do one. Stock boost is 13.5 psi!

I've been looking into Vishnu for my STi, but then again he's local. :)
Coob does great work as well and if they both were local my choice would be Cobb. I hope they support the new Legacy.

i think it'll be at least 6 months till we see EMS/ECU solutions. the STi is still struggling for the UTEC! :(
hopefully the platform will be close enough to the WRX or STi so it's not reinventing the wheel for the new legacy tuners.

I know there will be a bunch of vendors that will carry aftermarket parts. The one's that are able to get some of the STi Genome stuff from Japan will be doing a lot of business. Garret at worldoneperformance.com is a great guy. He knows an opportunity when he smells it. I would suspect that parts will be readily available. Get ready to pay though, that stuff's gonna be pricey.

Subaru is planning on 250,000 units a year for the new Legacy...this makes for a very tuner happy auto (economics)!!! 8)

The currennt model Legacy sold 79,839 units in the last calendar year in the US. I don't know what they are projecting for the new model but I'm guessing around 100,000. That's 4 times more than the WRX! The demographic will be different though.

Subaru wants to raise its total U.S. sales to 250,000 units, as I understand matters. They sold about 170,000 cars in the USDM last year across all lines.
It would be pretty amazing for them if they could sell that many Legacies, however...

subaru is getting better and better everyyear
first they came out with WRX, forester and STi
now they come with Legacy :shock:
and hopefully they will bring more heat (more STIs more selection of cars)
I read the 250,000 number was a projection for Legacy sales by 2006? I'll have to dig up the article.

E VP of Subaru of America, Fred Adcock says 250,000 Scooby's a year by 2006. That makes more sense to me now... :)

It didn't, it would be interesting to see what happened to the first one off of the production line though.

Does anybody know how many Leggys are selling per year now? Not nearly 250,000.

They aren't selling a quarter of a million cars total, although that was/is a goal.
Legacy is one of the smallest sellers. I think I figured about a month ago, that the 2005 numbers were in the neighborhood of 20-something thousand units of the Legacy, and more than 50 thousand outbacks.

I think cobb could do great with legacy parts. But most people research online first, and cobb needs to get a decent webpage online with current information and working links. Before I reconigzed the cobb name, i went to their webpage and said "wow, these guys are really new at this".
Me, cheat?!? :icon_bigg
If you noobs would just learn how to use the advanced search, it's easy to find. :lol:
