Impreza gen 3 1.5l vs 2l


Recommended Posts

No idea how reliable either of the later NA options are but i’d say go for the 2.0 if they're similarly specced engines besides capacity, especially if with the auto. Underpowered engines mated with auto’s end up using just as much, if not more fuel as they're always being pushed that much harder to get up to speed.

Ditto on the 2.0

 

the 1.5 will have to work harder to Move the same Mass = use more gass, what do the carjam / Trademe Fuel stats say?

 

Also assuming your referring to these 

 

Third generation (2007–2014) – GE, GV, GH, GR

Hatch (facelift)

 

and with zero 1st hand experiance I'm gunna go by the Trademe listings that popped up 1st

all depend on how heavy your foot is I guess & every day you get in a 1.5 you'd wish you went for a 2.0 anyway

 

also one could spout out "Newer Auto Trans these days are much more efficient than those of the last Millenium a ther ehave been advances in parasitic power losses" etc

Is the 1.5 AWD though?

 

the review on the listing mentions 

 

Quote

15S – Powered by the 1.5-litre engine. Available in front or all-wheel drive, with a four-speed automatic or manual transmission.

 

FWD 1.5 be the way to go I reckon

 

OR

 

2.0

 

take both for a test drive maybe?

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
