Jr0ckz26 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I have an '08 legacy non turbo. I am trying to find a cold air intake but cannot. Only one I found is a k&n typhoon which I do not want. Any clue when I can get one? And also I wanted to get a magnaflow cat back exhaust. Good idea?

lingling1337 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Cold air intake will probably not add much power. Same for the exhaust but it will make the car sound nice. If you want to have fun in a 2.5i best bet is to look at some sway bays, shocks, short throw shift kit, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bomberlegacy Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 No need for a cold air intake, they will hurt performance. Magnaflow catback will work, I am not familiar with them but you won't need the 3" version. 2.5 would be best but I don't know if they make that. A resonator helps too, the non turbo motor gets raspy without it. '08 Legacy 2.5i - hybrid intake - delta 1000 - E85 - magnaflow exhaust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaSprinter24 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 im pretty sure magnaflow doesn't offer a resonator opition, it doesn't come with it. make sure whatever exhaust u choose will bolt up to the stock dp. some exhausts need adapters that the cbe will not come with. if you get a intake ull need a tune and ur car will just be louder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jr0ckz26 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 What kind of intake and exhaust would you guys recommend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanchitosonria Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 A nice panel filter like K&N or AVO and the Borla catback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sanchitosonria Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 No worries. That would fit but it's 3" piping and no resonator. So it will sound a little raspy and ricey. And you'll lose low end power. Trust me. Do not run a 3" CBE on the N/A. For a CBE on our 2.5i, the Borla is the best price wise and performance wise. You could always have a muffler shop do a custom job with 2.5" piping and whatever mufflers you choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
