  1. HI love your Legacy I have one of the same year and color. I love your brakes can you tell me were you found them and it looks like your still running the stock rims? I put some different rims on mine but same size as stock. I would like to upgrade the brakes but I dont want to get different rims. Hope to hear from you thanks in advance Chris.
  2. Just remove your silencer if you dont wanna spend much. WHy make an exhaust leak? It sounds like thats whats happening. I removed my resonator for 20 bucks, and it sounds nice. Not too loud AT ALL, very mild sound, but definately a nice modded sound. My Intake made my spool way way loud, the DP, helped make it louder, and there was no rumble. So I did this, and it added the exact tone I wanted. Be prepared to pay 40-60. Thats normal, but I got it done for 20. Its cheap either way, and you will like it. You dont hear much but a little lower tone on idle, and when you step on it, you can DEFINATELY hear a NICE difference. very very far from ricey. sounds clean, like the car almost came that way.
  3. First I installed a Revo Technica Boost gauge. It matches the best from any others ive seen posted to the factory gauges. And its much cheaper than Defi, lol. And its completely accurate, no noise, works 100% great. Much better than my Autometer one did in my vic. The first main upgrade I did was Brakes. I ordered the Front Rotora BBK (the blue one to match my car). Heres a pic. I ordered the rear ones, and they will be in next week. I ordered rear calipers, pads, and lines. That will be plenty of upgrade for the rear, until I want to match the calipers for show purposes. http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e43/05SubaruGT/P8230234.jpg Followed my an AEM intake. Than I set up a dyno tune from DynoComp (an AWESOME SHOP! very expensive, very good/reliable!) I installed a catless DP the night before the tune, so I didnt have to drive untuned with a dp and an "INTAKE." Thats bad to have both untuned. A CAI is fine when being tuned. a Short Ram, is crap on Subarus. I came out with a 65ft/lb gain and 28whp. The car pulls incredibaly harder now. Next, I got some tint, than removed my exhaust silencer. I had a shop do it, that welded exhausts on cars with higher EGTs, to make sure the weld would hold up to racing. the car soudns freakin awesome now. Very low rumble, sounds very mean when at 2psi or more. Has a much much louder boxer rumble, but still sounds pretty stock with the factory mufflers/exhaust. Here is the tint, and after about 50 layers of wax and 20 or so layers of detail spray, some polish, and other crap. http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e43/05SubaruGT/PB130369.jpg My mods are now in this order: Rotora BBK (soon rear setup to match, waiting on my order) Revo Technica Boost gauge and AVO gauge pod AEM intake Crucial Catless DP ECUTeK dynotune (morning after I installed the DP the night before) Limo tint on rear windows and 35 on fronts/windshield Exhaust silencer replaced with straight pipe (25 bucks!, sounds freakin nice!!!!) I think thats about it.
  4. Why is there no ECUTeK info on the first post? I am running ECUTeK and LOVE it. I gained some AWESOME power, no CEL's or resistor fixes, with one cat removed. No evidence of being tuned, other than my "DynoComp Tuned" sticker, lol. They can adjust just about every aspect of the ECM or ECU, whatever its called. You cannot switch maps, but for a custom tune, its great, IMO. Custom is always the best way to go anyways. If you have a laptop, Im sure you can connect it to the OBD11 connector or however you go about that, and tune on the road if youd like, adjusting your maps yourself. Im pretty sure AP can do that too. Heres just a little info about it.
