  1. It sounds like it opens and closes, but I will check. How does one check btw?
  2. Thank you Jveers. I have read that a clogged cat can cause the acceleration and power problems that I am experiencing so it makes sense. I'm going to have a buddy do a pressure test. If it is the cat are there any after market ones that would be an OEM replacement?
  3. Hello My 2006 Legacy Gt will not rev past 4000 rpm it also has almost no power and very poor acceleration and is throwing the P2096 code. I had a VF-52 pun in a few weeks ago as well as tune the code came up before the tune. Could it be one of the O2 sensors or a clogged cat? Wanted add that my gas consumption has gotten very high since the rev problem started.
  4. Thanks guys. I will keep it out of boost and drive as little as possible, luckily work is only three miles away.
  5. I purchased a vf52 to install in my 2006 Legacy GT pre-covid. The original turbo died recently so I has the vf52 out in today. Seeing how covid has cut my income in more than half (bartend) I really can't afford a tune, but don't want to destroy the engine either. Can I forgo the tune if I don't drive it aggressively? Thanks
  6. Thank you for all the info and pictures! I had not driven the car since last November and started driving it again in mid April. I had the oil changed at the dealer about a week after starting drive to drive it again so did not check the oil. I checked the other turbo for play and it is good. plans are just to do the new turbo and a tune. Installed JMD Bilsteins shocks and springs as well as AVO +0.50 Caster Adjustment Control Arm Bushings. Not really thinking of doing much more to it at the moment.
  7. I don't recall getting either of those codes. 154,000 miles
  8. Do I have to remove the down pipe or can I just unbolt and move out of the way?
  9. I wander if I am noticing it because of driving with the windows down? I might as well do the swap since I have the other turbo.
