Perscitus Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 That's perfect Rob. We will likely be there mid-day or so (first have a PDR appointment at some Porsche dealership Manchester Subaru sent my brother too - he has an optional 'factory' or 'dealer prep' dent on top of the B pillar (documented on the lot @ pickup with 5 miles on the ODO) so the dealership is paying to remove it. I will text you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perscitus Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Yeah, sadly... because the backlog is huge! I've got two back-to-back sailboat races this weekend (all day Sat and Sun). On Tuesday, any chance you'd have a few minutes to re-wire my brother's DRLs to light up the position lights and/or an extra circuit? We've already disabled the stock DRLs (same as on our cars). Nothing beyond that. His position bulbs that light up the 'C-shape' are 194/168 bulbs, so also same as ours. He's got no more DRL candidates just yet. One shipping over (similar strips of LEDs as we have). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredrik94087 Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 Here's something for the nay-sayers who keep saying, "You're just throwing your money away running 101 octane if you are not tuned for it." http://legacygt.com/forums/showpost.php?p=4820576&postcount=78 I also updated the first page of my build list.

fredrik94087 Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 I assume you will have the attempted install at a shop? If so, will this shop tune your car as well? If they do, great...but don't go nuts. If they don't, after they install and confirm fitment, have them put on the oem belt and drive until you can find a tuner.

KFCConspiracy Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 are there any even available? Not that I know of, but you could have been having something fabricated that I didn't know about I'm excited to see the outcome of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fredrik94087 Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 I have tuned two turbo 3.6L's with forged internals. Nothing off the shelf though. That said, they were both running 15+psi so needed internals. Stock internals with boost has been done too, 8psi on stock bottom end was fine. The new cracked rod design is similar to the FA20 design and is fine for boost, as is the compression ratio Are you able to provide any information in forged internals? Part numbers? Manufacturers? Thanks.

stevenc1703 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Better have the ipt 5eat transmission upgrade. I doubt it will take the power stock.

A 6 speed swap is gonna run you $8000 to $10,000.
