ohninegt25 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Hey everyone, I'm getting my 09 Legacy GT 2.5 pro-tuned and I figured it's about time for me to post my progress. What I have done so far: SPT cat-back exhaust SPT short-ram - extension added for colder air intake Invidia Downpipe Catted Prosport EL Header and Up-pipe Will be installed on the day of the pro-tune: AVO intercooler boost control solenoid transmission cooler Current running a COBB AP - Stage 2 Dyno Graph's will be posted I'm thinking of upgrading the turbo? Stage 2 Turbo Upgrade - ideas? Thanks again! What can i expect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cryo Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Very respectable numbers for stg2 but it looks a little on the lean side though.

Code Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Why the ELH on a turbo that's already out of breath up top? Just curious "Striving to better, oft we mar what's well." - Bill Shakespeare - car modder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infamous1 Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 You really can't ever consider a Vehicle is lean unless you know what boost and timing is being ran as well. That is unless it differs from the target AFR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lieutenantcolumbo Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Why the ELH on a turbo that's already out of breath up top? Just curious If you believe the manufacturers you get quicker spool and higher hp / torque at whatever rpm range the header was designed around. Maybe he wants to loose some of the boxer rumble too.

Infamous1 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 That's really not that big of a turbo, you should be on 320-330whp range. The tmic will be your limiting factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohninegt25 Posted October 16, 2011 Author Share Posted October 16, 2011 ^oh okay... thx for the info, so around 280-290whp? 300 would be nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAC5.2 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 You'll want to talk with ClimberD. His Valve Body, his center-diff-bushings, and his F1 pack should make your worries go away for a long time. WRX guys would do modified torque converters, but I don't know of any LGT owners who have done it.

TRSCobra Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 The STI fuel pump will be a limiting factor for you. They don't flow too much more than the LGT pump does, IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
