Subaru Legacy unusual button???
Id like to think of it as a 100BHP NOS Shot. Least that what it should be. But Im gonna go with Gambits explanation, less exciting as it is. Welcome . I hope you are enjoying your new Legacy.

I had to have a hid bulb when it was in and was sort of surprised when he said they were 84 fricking pounds each.

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
So after my disappointing search for more boost on the rollers I decided to do the 'Telephonewire' mod that involves 2mins worth of work to re jig some vac hoses. I am now getting a solid 1.1 bar on the primary and 1.2 bar on the secondary . Hard to hear if there is any detting as all I can hear is induction lol buts is super smooth thats for sure. Booked in next Weds for a power run to make sure all the fuelling is correct. Fingers crossed!

Got the car back!! Freshly cleaned injectors fitted, new plugs, oil and filter (again), new HID bulb (not cheap lol). Went on rollers but for some reason the primary turbo did not want to play fair so still at stock boost. The boost on secondary seems harder than before and the intake noise is mental! Dont think its boosting higher from what I could make out which is odd but need to check properly tomorrow because the light in the boost gauge packed up recently Original primary down pipe with cat fitted for MOT. Anyway, glad to have it back and still loving it.

D Do you wash and oil yours? Mine had a K&N when I bought it but it was fairly knackered.

Whoosh
Very true! I went without a Japanese turbo for far too long! I do love listening to my primary with the windows down.

What colour??

Ditto. My preference is standard intake arrangement with uprated panel filter. I tried quite a few different types but have settled for a dry foam Ramair. I think your getting the picture now

Help regarding WRX bonnet on RX hatchback
Hi, Id say water ingress would actually be minimal and should burn off harmlessly. Plenty of people swapped bonnets from WRX's on to their sports! Anyone else think why it would be an issue?

Subaru WRX Hatch Parts Help
The first placed Id start is someone breaking one if your struggling and dont want to spend a fortune. EG http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUBARU-IMPREZA-WRX-2008-2009-2010-Breaking-Engine-and-Gearbox-sold-/321995698858?hash=item4af87072aa:g:FjQAAOSwHQ9WYDLy

would i need a remap after fitting this
The short answer is NO you wouldnt. Only really applicable if you are decatting. Looks like a nice system though! Should sound really nice.

using a lot of oil
Put it this way, I had a broken ring on my 2.3 Mazda 6 and there was no smoke at all until heavy acceleration and even then couldnt notice it while driving. That was going through a lot of oil too!!

Question about injector/engine loom

using a lot of oil
Using a litre of oil every 500 miles is a lot to me. The mileage/wear cant be high enough for that sort of use! What did they actually do as a full rebuild? Is there a possibility this couldve been an issue before and linked to the head gasket issue? You would expect to see white smoke if it was something serious (Ringland) but you say your not getting anything
