Easy. Just use the JDM ECU that goes to the engine.
You'll have to add the wiring for the cam position sensors and the control valves.
EDIT: By the way, that's all you need to do. Or you could just run it on the original 2.5L wiring and ECU without controlling the exhaust cams.
Can someone please confirm:
If you don't have the JDM ECU and for a 2008 LGT which is CANBUS, should be able to use the USDM ECU and not hook up the Exhaust AVCS, correct? Then just make sure to re-tune the engine.

Lol, if this is true and it was a mistake in pricing you'll be getting both the LCAs for around $30.00. From CARID CMS80182 CMS80181 $4.00 + $4.00 + ground shipping of around ~$21.00. If you check the Mevotech website, these are the actual pictures and they are aluminum because the weight of each arm is around 8 lbs.

+1 Awesome! Thanks so much for doing this!

Oh yeah, that might help. I have the bilstein HD's on sedan specific springs. Thanks for the input guys, I appreciate it. I will have to buy the wagon springs when I have the money. The front end being an inch higher than the rear bothers me lol

I put BP (wagon) springs in the rear and didn't use any saggy butt spacers. These are the JDM Legacy STi pink springs on the factory Spec.B Bilsteins. The part no's are in the "Best pink springs" thread I believe.http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/05/27/ju2aqy6a.jpg

looks amazing! where'd you pick it up?
I ordered this from a German Parts distributor - http://www.genuine-parts.de/
I paid in Euros via PayPal.

Today was the last straw, just bought a PW on ebay:cool:
Took forever to find one in stock, but I've already waited all winter for the GS model to come out:spin: I was told early spring/summer, now we're being told mid to late summer, I wish I could wait, and I'm sure the GS fitment will be great, but I had to buy the PW to get my car tuned and running properly.
I'll still consider selling my PW once the GS:wub: does come out though, just wish it wasn't such a hassle.
I suppose it IS a good sign GS is taking so much time for R&D though, it will probably be a cakewalk to install/uninstall.
You do realize that the supplied splitter is not designed for LGT fitment. If you plan to use the splitter you will need to fabricate the mounting points. Also, there are different PW part nos. for 08+ WRX and for 4th gen Liberty. Hope it works out for you.

Bought it from a German OEM parts distributor for around 330.

Yes Here in Oregon and Washington it's all 92 for premium. At least it's not the Cali-piss 91 though
Yes, that's why I run E85. It's nice to live near 5 different Propel station pumps. In my previous car, 03 Bugeye WRX, I was tuned for 93 and so I used to mix 100 back in the day, then started using E85 mix after that, and that's what the current owner (Heedz) does.

Anyone test with 100% E85 in their tank?

*confused* factory downpipe or no?
What county do you live in?
I'm certain he swapped to the factory DP, as we're in NorCal, Santa Clara County.

Saw a really clean 08 DBM LGT, followed a little ways, and stopped at a few signal lights and met and chatted with ElleGeeTee while I was in Concord on Sat. Nice meeting you! Come to the Wed. night meet in Fremont if you are bored as there's usually a big turnout.

Only way i'd go front mount is if the turbo is at the bottom, like with the 5th gen 2010 GT.

Some interesting data and testing, I would be interested on your takes on it.
I think that if you run Rotella T6 and you read and understand this, that you'd probably switch to something else that offers better protection.

This is the car I wish I could own, and it's affordable.

^^ I would have guess that you had a problem with the PP.
This sticky needs updating. I am in the need to replace the Spec B clutch, and will be going with an Exedy Twin Hyper HD. The part number is FM022HD and it includes a flywheel, but no TO or Pilot bearing.
http://www.exedyusa.com/race/FM022HD
Specs:
Disc Size 200mm
Spline Teeth / Major Dia 24T / 25.2mm
Clamping Force/Load exerted (lbs) 2653
Disc Material Ceramic
Number of Disc Twin
Type (Push/Pull) Pull
Sprung Center (D-core) Yes
Clutch Torque 1106
Torque Capacity at Wheels 615
Flywheel to Crank Bolt ft-lb 55
PP Assby. to Flywheel ft-lb 23
One thing I noticed on their website is that the FM022SD is not found to have a application for the Spec B, but is for the STi.

This is a long overdue review.
Although, I'm currently no longer running a Cryotune Stage 2 map, I just wanted to point out that when I was, I worked with Dave who knows these cars and knows how to extract maximum and safe power levels. If I find I need your services, I will definitely look to you, and I will never hesitate to recommend your services.
If you own a 4th Gen (or 5th) Legacy GT, I highly recommend you get tuned by CryoTune Performance, you won't be disappointed!
Thanks again, Dave! You are a HUGE asset to the LGT community!

Patiently waiting because I know it will all be worth it.

Finally addressed all the issues I had with the install of the 6SS 20GXR BB turbo. They gave me the wrong oil line -AN fitting. It fit onto the steel braided line to the turbo, but didn't fit the stock compression fitting. I picked up the correct fitting at ATP Turbo. Then, I had an uppipe leak. Found that compressor housing was interfering with the oil line and water line preventing the uppipe from sealing completely, just needed to use a punch to make some clearance on the water fitting and slightly bend the oil line down. I removed the oil line filter screen too. The screen was clean but that's not surprising since i've been running the Amsoil Dual Remote Bypass since 54280, and currently at 61677.

This was the first clearance problem so had to remove the engine lift bracket.

Got a FMS TMIC with PW hoses for cheap while I wait for the Grimmspeed unit.

This 6StarSpeed 20g finally arrived as the Garrett ball bearing CHRA was not available. Waited patiently since early June.http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/07/9umy7adu.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/07/a6atezyb.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/07/7eduquze.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/07/5agudeby.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/07/yqa7y7am.jpg

This mod is not only for extending your OCI, it also provides additional oil capacity and cooling similar to adding the Killer B pan but at reduced cost and better filtration.

Interesting info on oil wear protection tests done by independent test lab. http://540ratblog.wordpress.com/
I wanted to point out one of the more popular oil being used here (which I used to run) and compared to the Amsoil Series 3000 HDD 5w-30 that I currently use (what would you want to protect your engine with?):
96. 5W40 SHELL ROTELLA T6 Diesel Oil synthetic, API CJ-4, CI-4 Plus, CI-4, CH-4, SM, SL = 67,804 psi
zinc = TBD
phos = TBD
moly = TBD
12. 5W30 Amsoil Series 3000 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil synthetic, API CI-4 PLUS, CF, SL, ACEA A3/B3, E2, E3, E5, E7 = 102,642 psi
This is BY FAR, the highest ranked Diesel oil I have ever tested. This oil is Engineered for Diesel engines not equipped with Diesel particulate filters (DPF). Amsoil says this oil delivers better wear protection than other popular Diesel oils. And in this case, their hype is absolutely true. They also say it effectively reduces fuel consumption, with its advanced fuel efficient formula. This oil costs $11.15 per quart in the 2013 Amsoil Factory Direct Retail Catalog, which is 10% more than Amsoil’s 5W40 Premium Synthetic Diesel Oil. So, in this case, you pay only 10% more for the Amsoil Series 3000 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil, but you get a whopping 33% more wear protection than you get with the Amsoil’s 5W40 Premium Synthetic Diesel Oil. Money very well spent, if you run a Diesel oil intended for engines not equipped with Diesel particulate filters. The next highest ranked Diesel oil only ranks a very unimpressive 54th out of the 118 oils I’ve tested so far. So, this 5W30 Amsoil Series 3000 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is in a class of its own, among all the Diesel oils I have tested.
zinc = TBD
phos = TBD
moly = TBD
