  1. Oh make sure you save your stock exhaust! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  3. There's a shop in my area that deals with Subarus, I'm going to ask them they're opinions. I started researching how to increase low end torque issues not just for Subarus but other people that are running into the same problem. A couple guys on this forum have mentioned replacing headers and cams. So I am looking into headers and have the cams looked at and see if the CVT can handle it. I've abandoned the intake thing because it's more helpful for fuel economy not performance. I've seen a bunch of headers for sale but I can't find the right one to fit the 6th generation legacy. So if I can find the right headers and possibly cams, that I believe will be worth the money invested. I just pray that I don't destroy the engine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  5. It could happen. When they put the car up on the lift. It shocked me how tight the space is where the exhaust is located. I think regardless of what size pipe you use, I'd be more concerned about how your engine will respond. Depending on how long you've had and driven your car, you're going to notice a difference in your cars response once you change the exhaust. Things become more obvious that you didn't notice before. I'm going to get the intake and let you know if I notice an improvement on the low end side. You could do a bigger single exhaust. That would be interesting to see if you can get more power without sacrificing torque. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Good to know, thanks for the recommendations I'll check them out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Hi, It does hurt the torque on the 2.5i. I was getting too much back pressure on mine when I replaced the single to a dual exhaust, so my low end torque dropped significantly. The car really struggled to gain speed from 0-30mph off the start. On the high end side the torque is amazing, there's a huge difference. My buddy told me to install a cold air intake which should help a lot and balance it out. I just can't find one that'll fit this car. Oh I forgot to add that I had to take the car back to the shop and they had to make the pipe smaller, essentially choking the exhaust to slow down or reduce some of the back pressure. That did help, but my word Subaru is making it hard to do stuff to this car. Even wheels are a pain in the butt.
  8. $500 is a really good deal. Mine cost $800 for the dual exhaust for the full replacement.
  9. You and me both. Where'd you get your spoiler btw Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Oh snap!!! Wow how'd you get the chrome panels to be black?

  13. Yup had a guy do a custom job for me. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160629/e43dd6430a3c9175644fff321c8853a5.jpg I've had to go to specific shops because some of the places in my area that deal with Subarus were giving me a hard time because of the model of my car. They didn't want to deal with it, so I took my business elsewhere. Through that I've ran into other car guys who've recommended the shops they go to and that's been a huge help. Hope the photo helps, I'm still not used to that type of exhaust and adjusting my driving. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. that's what I just got done to my car. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Beautiful, you have given me renewed hope for this car.
