bomberlegacy Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 First off, this is not complete but I have a few photos to share as I go. Build list: -2008 2.5i 4EAT 39k miles(yes I know it will eventually fail) -10psi Raptor supercharger kit -water-to-air intercooler & radiator from frozenboost.com -Deatschwerks compact fuel pump -Deatschwerks 750cc injectors -Rallitek spark plug wires and transmission mount insert -Hayden 676 trans cooler -Prosport boost & trans temp gauge w/ JSC cubby -E85 tune from Keith @ AWDTuning in Dallas -Rallisportracing UEL headers, Magnaflow mufflers, Vibrant resonator I have most everything done, I need to mount the radiator and water pump, wire my gauge, and get my base map written to the ECU. Also getting the second cat removed and pipe replaced with 2.5". I'll post pics in the next post, I am doing this from my phone so it's a little slow.

GEE-OTTO Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Hey nice build sheet! The 4EAT is the only "meh" point as it wont handle the power in the best manner and by that I mean it wont transmit power optimally to the wheels it is a fairly stout gearbox, so it should last a long time as long as it cooled well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bomberlegacy Posted October 25, 2012 Author Share Posted October 25, 2012 Got busy at work.. Here goes. Bumper off http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/b514/sclegacy08/rps20121025_074210_zps220f99a9.jpg Intercooler radiator. I got a bigger one than I need, so it can be seen behind the bumper /rice http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/b514/sclegacy08/rps20121025_074256_zps968e5306.jpg Had to relocate this sensor behind the bracket to clear the radiator. http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/b514/sclegacy08/rps20121025_074236_zps09ed430a.jpg Hayden 676 trans cooler http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/b514/sclegacy08/rps20121025_074130_zps98073805.jpg This is the intercooler. It sits where that plastic box was connected to the throttle body. Water is pumped through it. http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/b514/sclegacy08/rps20121025_073900_zpsb138f905.jpg Not much to see here, but Deatschwerks pump and injectors. Went to their shop to get them. Nice place. http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/b514/sclegacy08/rps20121025_074105_zps8b57fcf7.jpg Here is the Raptor kit. http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/b514/sclegacy08/rps20121025_074003_zps3fc8dafe.jpg Most of the big stuff installed. http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/b514/sclegacy08/rps20121025_073921_zps0509d278.jpg That's all for now. I will have more this evening. '08 Legacy 2.5i - hybrid intake - delta 1000 - E85 - magnaflow exhaust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows, maybe a 5spd swap is in my future. I've got the trans cooler and gauge so I can monitor the temps. Should be ok got a while.

jasejase Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 what SCASEYS said. How much you have invested in go mods at this point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bomberlegacy Posted October 25, 2012 Author Share Posted October 25, 2012 Tim @ Raptor has been extremely patient with me and helpful. He sent me a dyno chart that showed 205ish horsepower, and I believe that was the 6psi kit on regular gas. I'll have 10psi and E85. Should be fun '08 Legacy 2.5i - hybrid intake - delta 1000 - E85 - magnaflow exhaust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GEE-OTTO Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 One thing i really like about a SC kit is the bolt-on/off nature. looks good !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compsurge Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I wouldn't worry so much about the 4EAT. There is a guy with a 4th gen wagon running 11's all day long. That and it's in every Subaru ever made since I-don't-know-when, so it's cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bomberlegacy Posted October 25, 2012 Author Share Posted October 25, 2012 I got a good deal on the car, I wasn't planning on doing any engine work at the time.. Now I have money in the stereo & sound deadening and wheels/brakes etc.. So I really don't want to get rid of it.. And yeah.. Its a fun & different project that should get good results.

bomberlegacy Posted October 26, 2012 Author Share Posted October 26, 2012 you guys will probably laugh at these videos, but I just couldn't wait for my base tune to get finished before I started it.
