  1. The real issue is the Resonator is very thin metal. Your not really going to be able to heat it or add to to weld it back. Best thing is to delete it or buy a new one. I have the Resonator deleted on my 05 for this very reason as it broke at the neck.
  2. Well, curious on whats a better speaker for my 05 Legacy GT. I would like to get better sound for my old battered beast. Curious what ones some have used. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
  3. I know when my turbo went in my 05, the shop I took it to replaced it with an aftermarket for $1,500 only to find out 2-3k miles later that my up pipe was plugged.. which the shop failed to catch and damaged the new one. After that, due to the plugged up pipe I nuked a valve which nuked my #2 piston. Resulted in having to replace the piston, the crank, heads were sent out for polish/check for cracks. Short block was good tho so we rebuilt the entire engine with new seals, timing belt, etc and a used turbo for $3.8k.
  4. Had more or less the same thing with my 05 before my piston blew. Hoping that's not the case. If you can, pressure test the pistons to make sure its not loosing compression in any cylinder. Couldn't do that before my piston exploded... $3.8K later on rebuilding the engine.. and the shop I did it.. still not 100% that its fixed yet.. he had to tear it down once already and redo the building after only 300 or so miles due to a faulty crank.
  5. What tires tho?? Could easily be a tire issue vs mechanical issue. As far as ABS, that could effect traction, could take it to a dealer to diagnose. I would look into tires first and head from there. Ive had shit all season tires on my 2005 Legacy GT making the car absolute shit in the snow. I personally stick with Cooper or Falken tires all seasons all year round for the weather here in NY. Drive hard, fast and can get the tires to last almost 3yrs before wear indicators.
  6. Pretty sure this issue is what nuked my first turbo.. even tho I took it to the dealership for oil changes.. they obviously missed it.. and they some how missed my plugged up-pipe to the turbo that fried my exhaust valve that killed my engine after they had it for diagnosis... Now i'm rebuilding my engine. I'll make sure to mention it to my master mechanic that he remove those banjo bolts entirely in case hes not aware.
  7. Need to look into getting something like this for my Legacy when I get it back in March... Thanks for the info! Sorry to necro. Damn.. link doesn't work.. Blah... may be SOL :X two kits or just one for both headlights?
  8. As, I am currently without my 2005 Subaru Legacy GT until around January due to needing an engine rebuild.. What's recommended to get a lot better visibility from the headlights? We have a 2014 Outback 2.5i which is FAR superior even with Sylvania Xtravision bulbs. Leave A LOT to be desired. Looking at options for after I get it back.
