  1. it seems to only stutter/hickup on the freeway when im in 6th and around 2500ish but it doesnt happen all the time. im not sure exactly when it hits full boost but im guessing around 3750-4000 depending on the load. i like the driveability of the turbo. ill have to do some data logs to see what im hitting at rpm Haven't downloaded logs but probably closer to 4500 rpm peak boost.
  2. Yea it drives good. The idle drops too far down sometimes when the engine isn't warmed up and it definitely likes being driven above 3000 It stutters some times below that but I'm not sure if that's the tune or just how the car is set up with the bov setup and added turbo lag, but other than that runs perfect. I wish the sti gears were longer.1st gear is kinda useless because its so sort. I wish I would have had a bigger maf so I could have gotten more power, but I guess there always next year.
  3. I decided to blow up my motor last February since it was already on its way out compression was very low and I'd burn 2-3 quarts every 1000 miles. So I just did donuts in my works parking lot till it wouldn't do them anymore. unfortunately I broke my center diff even more than it was and cracked three pistons while doing that. I have a cool video tho. Tore the engine and trans out. Tore everything apart my self. I had to get the cyclinders bored .5mm over. And the heads I had refurbished. Rebuilt the bottom end with maley rods and cp 100 mm arp head studs and acl race bearings Tranny was sorta toast it would need a new center diff and rebuilt because all the bearings were bad from debris I decided to go with the 2004 sti tranny I found on nasioc for cheap. Got an act clutch auto tranny driveshaft and r180 rear diff. Installed a stock location ATP gtx3076r turbo, tomei headers and up pipe. Fast motorsports black fmic(which I'm kinda disappointed in but still works). Grimmspeed 3 port boost solinoid. Perrin 3inch inlet and Cobb oem size maf short ram intake. Made 370 hp and 334 ftlbs on 18psi I maxed out my maf housing so they couldn't tune past it. I should have gone speed density or at least 3 inch maf. My maf was one thing I over looked. I plan to go back next year and get it re tuned with a bigger maf.
  4. thats me. i had a feeling it was you Ive watched some of your videos, im not very active on here more so on nasioc but i come on here to read wats going on. i just moved to new berlin to my bros house, there unequal tomei. my exhaust sounds very raspy until everything warms up, and yeah my bov is loud its a go fast bits hybrid set to full atmospheric since i didnt feel like and advanced auto disnt have big enough hose to run a recirc tube after my rebuild. i actully saw another blue legacy with exhaust and wat looked like an sti badge on the trunk i tried gettin closer but traffic was shitty on 94 west. i had 18" black rotas but i bent a rim last week so im rockin the stockies. is there any meets coming up or cruises, i finnaly got my car finished after 5 months i wanna do some stuff..
  5. anyone know a place to get fenders rolled in Milwaukee/Waukesha i haven't called any places yet just looking for recommendations. my front fenders dont like 245's on coilovers, and i dont want to eat my tires with two much camber.
  6. anyone going to automotion in the dells in may?
  7. ive got a silver lgt with the spt catback no cats, stage 2 ap, tinted windows, and lowered on flex coilovers. i rock 18" black rota p1's in the summer. im from waukesha, i go to school/live on the eastside. i didnt relize how many "modded" legacy's there are in our area, ive only seen a few, but usually when that happens im on my bike or in a friends car so it kinda sucks. i would def go to a legacy meet. or maybe just like go to other meets as a group. when i was in high school i used to go out to hwy 100 to cruise with the "cool" kids i had a blue 02 2.5rs lowered on the same black rotas. http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/gg588/dengles/10-10-2011012.jpg has anyone see me??? hopefully i wasnt doing somthing stupid.
