PeterJMC Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 The car looks awesome! I'd like to get a full Cobb TBE for no other reason than just because. I did just get Cobb mufflers though. That is all I need. I can die now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LatentWagen Posted October 18, 2015 Author Share Posted October 18, 2015 I put on the OEM splash guards last week. $100 for twenty bucks worth of plastic, but they fit right, and I think they look pretty good. http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=218318&stc=1&d=1445199072 LW's spec.

jasejase Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 When you getting something that's NOT, an OTS tune? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LatentWagen Posted November 19, 2015 Author Share Posted November 19, 2015 It drives smooth, makes decent power, and doesn't knock. I'm sure I'm leaving a bit on the table, in terms of mid-range power and spool, but the car is at almost 175k, after all. When I get the itch for more power, I'll look at a custom tune, but only after a new turbo, header/up, and fuel. Leaning towards an 8CM 1.5XTR, KB HH, and ID 1000s, which should be a good balance of power and responsiveness with the TMIC setup. I'd like to tune for pump and e85, since there is a nearby Shell that sells it, and the car will have enough injector... but not going there unless I have a back-up motor at the ready LW's spec.

LatentWagen Posted December 14, 2015 Author Share Posted December 14, 2015 So I contradicted myself on my OTS tune rant from last month... I'm now running a Tuning Alliance custom tune, and am very happy with the results! The car is making good power, but the drivablity, responsiveness, and refinement are worlds better. It feels like a different car. Can't recommend Mike enough. After the tune, rolled over a minor milestone on the way home: http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=221302&stc=1&d=1450114829 Side view?

LatentWagen Posted December 18, 2015 Author Share Posted December 18, 2015 Well done! Car looks great! Nice results from the modded IWG and custom tune as well. The upgraded actuator was actually only on the car for long enough to test it, but definitely made a difference. I'll buy one if we can nail down fitment a little better (it fits perfect on a 52, but the angle of the 46's port is different). There is another model that Mike thinks will offer the right range of adjustment for the 46, so we'll see! It would be $100 well spent. Here's the boost, WG and MAF curves with my current (stock) actuator, versus the upgraded actuator. Love that spool http://i463.photobucket.com/albums/qq357/tuningalliance/VF46%20Testing.png http://i463.photobucket.com/albums/qq357/tuningalliance/VF46%20Maf%20volts.png LW's spec.

B Stage 2 40-100+ - YouTube[/ame] I use this stretch of road in Mex'anada when datalogging or just as a benchmark test for each mod that I do; there's a good view of the road ahead, and a slight, consistent incline. Hopefully this spring I'll have an "after" video for comparison. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvbiZW6BUeI]Subaru Legacy GT spec.
