  1. The Turbosmrt Kompact BPV was recommended by the tuner (Bren Tuning) and didn't seem to have any clearance issues with the Rx charge pipe with OEM IC.
  2. The Rx was a tight fit to begin with. Great job getting this on and ready for tuning. One of the hoses blew off when Bren was tuning the car. Once it was set, never had any couplers come off.
  3. Still on track for Friday. There's an additional coupler that could be used as an extension if the verticooler sits a little further back than OEM.
  4. The OEM charge pipe is quite a restriction for just the OEM IC. BBPeik - I've got a Racer X charge pipe in storage. I'll send it out to you for a test fit if that's helpful to the insall. PM me if interested.
  5. Yup, stage I 5th gen is stage II wrx. Stage II adds more low end torque. Example: http://legacygt.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=547&pictureid=3586
  6. Yes, the BPV is just above the turbo on the charge pipe. A 3" down pipe, or j-pipe, will deliver turbo spool effects and BPV recirc (tune reauired). Some have replaced the OEM charge pipe with an Rx Engineering one with actedmarket BPV (got one in basement ).
  7. I just installing replacement fogs on the WRX. They look to be 100% compatible with the 5th gen mounting. The ones I picked out have a 90 degree horizontal coverage. The other choice is more to support road illumination up the road. I had gotten these at Subiespeed but they do not appear to be available anymore. Here they are at FT-86 factory http://www.ft86speedfactory.com/olm-vision-drl-led-fog-light-housings-1821.html http://www.ft86speedfactory.com/images/2013-frs-brz-led-fog-drl.jpg Additionally, these have LED strip above and below the fog that can be wired in to be on with the DRLs. I also installed the Laminex overlay to protect the glass. Subispeed has a few other options that you guys may want to look into.http://www.subispeed.com/2015-subaru-wrx/lighting Did I read someone go one of their fogs busted up? If so, PM me as I have two OEM fogs.
  8. Nope, not me... finally traded in the GT for the WRX two week ago.
  9. Spotted a blue 4th Gen, new looking Invidia catback. 8pm, I-95 eastern CT to about Exit 3 in RI. You were running with a white Nissan. I was in the new WRX, its a woose stock over my stage II 5 th Gen, so no playing around with you. Anyhow, you are one lucky dude for not getting pulled over. I tucked in the right lane, you blew by the rest area where the radar trap was. Cop pulled over the white Nissan ....
  10. So I am glad to hear that you have an eta for your Wrx. Hopefully it will be as good if not better then your Legacy for you. :)
  11. 2010 LGT Stage II 104K miles, presently neutered for trade in ... Male - 52 Systems Engineer Moving on to 6th Subie 1997 OB, 1999 LGT, 2004 Legacy wagon, 07 Outback (still have), 2010 LGT (in cue for trade in), 2015 WRT Limited (arrived at port 10/30, en-route to dealer) Unmarried AP from the LGT the other weekend. A very sad day. The 5th Gen area of the forum has been fantastic. I'll be around to see how the 5th Gen and owners press on.
  12. List approved! Some rotor options for consideration from recommended vendor KNS: http://www.knsbrakes.com/c/car-items/880_2010+Subaru+Legacy+Sedan+-+2.5+GT%2C+3.6+R//5_Brake+Rotors So blink options with slotted and function on Centric Premiums. Pads - you will enjoy the performance of the Carbotec 1512s (bobcats). They cost a little more. If cost is a somewaht consideration, I'd pick Centric premium rotors and the 1512s over bling rotors and different pads.
