Va_lgt Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Just looking to see if maybe I can bribe someone with lunch and or a 6 pack to meet up with so I can get an impression of a 16g powered car before I take the plunge and put up the $. Never ridden in a legacy with an turbo upgrade and trying to decide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubieChik Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 My husband had a 16G in his old '04 WRX......it was ok. He said if he did it all over again he would have gotten an 18G. I've got a vf52 in mine.....I'm perfectly happy with it and wouldn't trade it for anything (except something huge) And I never see anyone while I'm out.....I thought there were no other Legacy's nearby you should come out to a meet sometime. There is one tonight in Hampton at Tokyo Steakhouse in Coliseum at 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators BarManBean Posted March 21, 2013 Moderators Share Posted March 21, 2013 From most accounts, the VF52 should feel very similar to a 16g... "Bullet-proof" your OEM TMIC! <<Buy your kit here>> Not currently in stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Va_lgt Posted March 21, 2013 Author Share Posted March 21, 2013 Barmanbean-That's what I've heard, just not sure if it will be enought..... Subiechic- I've seen you once In passing but there are about 4-5 local modified lgts. See the problem and why I have never met up with anyone is I work 3pm-12 :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody480 Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I'm in HR near ft eustis.

SubieChik Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Every one is coming out of the woodwork! I've been here almost 7 years and rarely ever see modified Legacy's.....if I do it's once but never again. More should come out.....I'm used to being the only one. We had a meet tonight but the next one is Saturday....actually it is every Saturday. This is where you will find any and all meet info: VB meets http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2393486 Peninsula meets http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2402083 (Although that thread says it will not be updated.....just always look at the last post....we keep it active.....I'll probably start a new one soon.

zenfamily Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I'd take that offer, but the LGT won't be there until late June. The BNR 16g that I have spools about as quickly as the VF40, but maintains the boost throughout the higher range. Are you MT or AT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Va_lgt Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 M/t too, I think that I'll end up going 16g from what everyone has said.
