I came from owning a run down 2005 OBXT to a 2018 Outback 2.5 touring and am longing for all the JDM love that the BP/BL generation got. All I've found as of yet is the JDM honeycomb grille but I was curious if anyone else has started finding other notable parts for the legacy and outback?

Has anyone put some serious work into their car yet? Mods to the exterior and interior? Definitely looking to go with a blacked out upper trim on the interior soon on my car and other little style nods. Hopefully this can turn into a discussion and what parts are showing up for the newest gen legacys

Fwiw a few people on here have been having issues with BNR quality lately.

So I've heard. I've looked over a few stock replacement options and mostly ruled out BNR due to some recent reviews. However, they pieced together a nice alternative oiling kit for the turbo using an oil filter sandwich plate, inline filter, and some piping.

I've been very happy with it, though I wish I had waited for the 16gxt. The spool is good, and pulls strong nearly to redline, much more area under the curve than the vf40. It is a substantial upgrade in terms of airflow even at stock boost levels. The 8cm turbine housing option also helps reduce the exhaust restriction, so wgdc tables are much different from stock. I would say at minimum your supporting mods would need to be a dw65c fuel pump, aftermarket tmic, and a good etune.

Thanks for the pointers. I was sitting between this and the BNR 16G, this definitely helps with a decision.
