Description:
|
The AVO420LGT is AVO's latest ball-bearing, bolt-on turbocharger solution for the USDM Subaru Legacy GT and Outback XT. It was designed specifically to be true OEM quality bolt-on solutions for the Legacy GT and Outback XT with proper oil and water cooling lines. What’s more, not only does the ball-bearing design enhance response and spool times, it is more reliable than the journal-bearing design used by the OEM turbocharger. Thanks to single-cartridge, dual ball-bearing technology, our turbochargers generate far less frictional drag and are 10 times more durable than traditional journal-bearing turbochargers.
Our ball-bearing turbochargers ship with all the necessary parts for a true bolt-on and go experience. Also included in this package is an AVO 15psi adjustable solid boost actuator. Higher rated solid boost actuators are also available. When we say bolt-on, we mean it!
The 400 designation refers to the performance level of this turbocharger. On a 2.5-liter turbocharged Legacy or Outback, it will provide up to 330 wheel hp with proper supporting modifications and ECU tuning.
Used in conjunction with a good aftermarket top-mount intercooler such as the AVO TMIC for the Legacy and Outback, 300-330 wheel horsepower is fairly easy to achieve, about 360-402 hp at the crank. Together with a good ECU tune, you can reach these goals with a simple upgrade to the fuel pump, exhaust, and intake. And you can go much further than this with this turbo with the right upgrades, such as fuel injectors and a front mount intercooler.
Our turbochargers were designed by one of the best turbo engineers on the planet, Terry Wilson, and are made to extra tight tolerances for the maximum in reliability and durability. Much of our testing is not only on a workbench, but in the harshest of real-world conditions, the deserts of Dubai. When you buy an AVO ball-bearing turbocharger, you are buying into technology that works.
For power applications ranging from 280-330whp, we recommend the following supporting modifications:
Intake and exhaust upgrades
ECU tune
AVO 245l/h high-flow fuel pump
AVO high-flow Top Mount Intercooler upgrade

Purchased this along with AVO FMIC. Install was fairly straight forward. Had to drop UP to get turbo inlet hose to connect properly. Instructions didn't mention anything about boost actuator control hose. Other than that, install went well.
As far as power... it's awesome. Dynoe'd at 330hp and 335 lb ft of torque at 20 psi at the wheels. Car now hits 22psi. No waste gate flutter and it holds 19+ psi all the way up to red line. Would recommend to anybody wanting a well built turbo.
