Going for a visit to nt_a_foz's for some pictures next week

i wouldn't

front mount finally in. not sure if i like the sound of the hks ssqv tho

no

too true!

Last time I read about it, it was going to be a N/A Manual now TT auto, downhill imo. would have sounded mint(er) as a n/a Much good reading the thread? looked at the last 3 pages and was mostly dribble haha

+1, seen this on multiple cars A lot of work to go through just for factory comp? did they have the same problem? its common for bov to cause this issue but it didnt have one ;D Huh? I was saying its potentially something to do with the afm as funky said. and I've seen it on other cars. edited IMO, the lack of a BOV has highlighted nothing to do with your problem, some cars come factory with none... just means you get turbo surge (which kills your turbo in the end) [quote name='evowrx said: how so? heaps of people front mount and i got it new and cheap so i just made the piping shorter and twisted turbo to fit the flipped manifold. splitting the rails was just common sense. Fair enough, just that most people twist turbo's to fit a bigger one. and as it is a lot of work (and expensive) I wouldn't have thought it would be worth it to gain back the imaginary loss of "lag" from a factory turbo, where "lag" is next to non-existant anyway edit* assuming that's why you twisted/flipped etc.

wheres the vac line which goes to the bov? blocked off?

daily honda - 6.27l/100km filled up this morning $79.60 and had done 580kms (all out of town), no wonder I never drive my legacy anymore ;D

can you get fronts for a be5? 35%

with 5-7k and your doing the work yourself & getting mates to help etc? (easy nuff to follow the guides here) I would recommend doing the conversion and a plug in link (standard engine and vfxx turbo), unless its rev d, then use a wire in storm Better (cheaper) option would be to buy one already done though

wrong.. you need more than JUST the turbo. huh?, so the legacys have different but still twin scroll up/downpipes?

shouldn't need a re-flash if your just swapping in another factory turbo. even if it is slightly bigger. just find another subaru twin scroll turbo...

not going to make F all of a difference unless you have a tune able ecu? and most tune able ecu's don't need o2 sensors

4 pots only have one, and if its at the bottom then it causes mass issues.

I can see Turtles side of thinking in: its been drummed in that you rise psi on smaller turbo creates more heat/air temp, but that may only be for intake side? (or more so) but makes sense that more power/fuel being burnt = more heat...

yea my legacy only half leather, think that the most common. Full leather for ballers only haha Hamilton, Tauranga or Tokoroa if possible If someone could hold at Taupo for me, I'm sure I could get down there at some point but causes more hassle haha

I'm wanting to buy these but he doesn't want to ship. Anyone able to help get them more north? http://www.trademe.co.nz/a.aspx?id=457868959
