  1. i know it has a very minor oil leak on the primary turbo, becomes greasy around intake but doesn\'t actually drip. took it to a subaru specialist mechanic who seemed to think it wasn\'t a major and shouldn\'t affect performance.

    fuel consumption seems alright don\'t know exactly but its not bad enough to have considered it a problem.

    idling seems alright, maybe a tad low though sometimes it seems like its getting near the point where it wants to stall.

  2. When i got my B4 RSK it had a autogauge boost gauge which from looking around is one of the cheaper options. I\'ve heard they can be out by a few psi and could anyone who has or previously had one confirm.

    My problem is when on primary boost it only shows 3-4 psi and i\'m not really sure whether theres a leak or just a s*** gauge. I took the car to a mechanic a while back and he couldn\'t find anything he thought was off with the car, and since i haven\'t had it for long don\'t really know what the power should feel like when running sweet. Also could i get confirmation of what boost others are getting off the primary?

    So basically what gauges are worth getting and are pretty accurate, defi ones look to be the best bet but someone with experience may sway me to another brand.

  3. tried that earlier but it must be linked to the auzzie site as it only shows the liberty gt and wasn't 100% sure it would be the same.

    just found something on the uk site as all the rest only showed the 2.5l engine available, can anyone confirm that the part: BKR6E-11 is correct. i'd go for the iridium but need to be sure of the orig part first

  4. i was thinking about changing the sparks myself as the mechanic i went to was going to charge a small fortune. just wondering what the best plugs are for this model, i've heard the iridium ngk ones are the best but don't know which one to go for.

    is there anything else that needs to be done to the engine when replacing them or is it just a matter of getting the old ones out and putting the new ones in?

    cheers
