mikey81 Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 HI all i have been looking around for an intake for my 02 legacy for awhile. I have found a few but i am unsure on which one to get. Do any of you have an idea on what one would be best. Also do some of the intakes for the RS fit the legacys? I have seen some web sites trying to sell the Injen intake that fits an RS for the legacy. thanks for your time mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakuun Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 If you have a naturally Aspirated Engine.. Search here. http://www.legacygt.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=11 If you have a turbo.. search here... http://www.legacygt.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=12 Welcome!! Nice to see another 02-03 bodystyle owner around here.. I think you make 7 maybe 8.. I've looked for nearly every mod possible.. most around here have 05's so it's sorta slim pickins for us BE/BH'ers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aczwild Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Your best bet to find an aftermarket intake is @ Rallitek. They have the Weapon-R secret weapon and from what I have heard and read its pretty good. I bought the last GP-Moto intake from them, but if they had anymore thats the direction that I would steer you in. Whatever you do, do not get the Weapon-R Dragon system it is a piece-o-shiat! good luck in your hunt for aftermarket parts. JDM'd All to hell Thanks Jimmy @ Hkc-Speed.com!

ADirtyLegacy Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 pick one up off someone who is turning a 2.5RS back to stock. that's what i did and they work fine. PDM Racing makes one for the RS but it fits our cars. i got the i-club (just like the PDM). Kenda:dm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdawg Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 here's a custom one, Pretty inexpensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKSubie Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Some of the intakes for the RS fit the Legacy's fine. Essentially the same engine layout. Some ones that MAY not be interchangeable are ones that utilize the hole in the fender. Either way I dont think you can go wrong, just depends how much you are willing to spend and the look you want out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbroo Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Yes I also have ben looking for an intake for my 01' GT and every tuner shop in colorado tells me that no one makes an intake unless you want to go Weapon R and I dont. I've been trying for Injen or HKS and neither make one. If you know of an intake that stands up to it's reputation let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbroo Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 Gracias senior, Should I get the complete cold air that connects to my finder. My friend with a REX said that water could splash into it, or is it better to get the ones with the cone on the end of the them. Thanks for the links Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKSubie Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 Get the Fender one. I had the Ganzflow intake on my 2000 Legacy, and never had any problems of sucking up water. Now if you decide to go through large puddles and the like, there MIGHT be a chance, but at that height even the stock intake woudl suck water.

Aczwild Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 I have one of the ones that does not go in the fender and, its up to you, but I'd go for one of the ones that doent go into the fender, just incase you encounter large puddles, or get some snow up in there, seeing as you are in Colorado...

thegodfather Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Nice to see another 02-03 bodystyle owner around here.. I think you make 7 maybe 8 don't forget me any way i really like that custom intake that pdawg linked i know that the guy said he got the pipe bent at a meineke shop but where would you buy a peice of pipe like that cuz i wanna try this out. i am thinking that aluminum pipe would be ideal as it its light. what do you you guys think about the material though?

Aczwild Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 In all honesty buy an intake kit because these things are specifially engineered to work with your car. If a pipe like pdawg mentioned is too long, or too short, too fat or too narrow you can seriously screw up your air/fuel ratio and screw up your injectors and O2-sensors. Now ask yourself, is saving $150 now on the pipe HFS dumbnutt fabbed up worth replacing a $120 O2-sensor, injectors or even pistons due to incorrect mixtures? Just spend the money now and don't fab your own, you'll thank me in the end JDM'd All to hell Thanks Jimmy @ Hkc-Speed.com!

thegodfather Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 well the thing is i really don't want to spend alot because in a year when i go to college this car becomes my sisters car so i don;t really want to spend alot of money that i don;t have on stuff for a car that i will only have for a year so i guess i will just hold of and maybe after freshmen year i will have wnough money to buy a decent used car for myself and do some work on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badbasser98 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I did the DIY intake mod like HFS did on the SLi forum. Actually got better gas mileage after installing it. No problems what-so-ever. -BB98 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
