AllBlackEverything Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Same ballpark as my car made, it was CTLex's car, I think the engine mods are: perrin tmic avo tb hose vf52 turbo cobb catted down pipe perrin catback perrin catch can dw 740 injectors dw 65 fuel pump Killer B Holyheader & up pipe cobb radiator cover plate removed banjo bolt filter act hd clutch w/ 07 wrx flywheel gfb diverter valve/bov underdrive crank pulley AccesPort v3 Grimmspeed electronic boost controller AEM (I think) 3in intake killer b oil pickup and windage tray optima red top primitive racing skid plate The boost controller, AP, headers, & intake were my additions, everything else came in the car. I had ECS in Windosr tune it for me... Car made 317 awhp & 348 awtq last March, probably in the mid 30's temperature wise, was running 93 octane, I can't remember what kind of dyno they have over there.

drunkinmonk Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Nice numbers. Do you have any time slips? 1/8th or 1/4 mile? I'm curious to see since I'm looking for a new turbo and similar mods. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
762x39 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I would esitimate high 13's, low 14's with good driving. I will have a similar setup as well come spring. I will be hitting the 1/4 mile at some point in the summer too. I'm installing a VF52 because dollar for dollar and for sheer simplicity (both tuning and installation, supporting mods needed etc.) its probably the most fun daily drivable turbo you can run. For daily driving it really does give you more for less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoo944 Posted March 1, 2016 Author Share Posted March 1, 2016 No times on current setup. Went 13.4 with a 1.9 second 60 foot at 103mph on stock intake,stock injectors,stock tmic and my tune on 18psi tapering to 14 psi which I estimated at about 260 to 270whp. I've only had 3 passes in the car at the time. Also,the stock 2.5i rear diff/bushings were clunking so bad on the shift it was picking it up as knock and pulling as much as 6 degrees out lol. Since then I've fixed that, gotten a little better at launching and flat shifting. I'm hoping for a mid..ish 12. Feels like it has a 110ish trap speed in it based on cars I've driven and umm...raced... Couple more weeks and I'll have a real time slip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

762x39 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 With good Drivers yes but with a 52 or a 16G those times will not significantly improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike07LGT Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Might wanna start saving for a new clutch lol a stock replacement isn't gonna last. (Well mine didn't at least) I went with a southbend and I love it compared to the stock clutch 03 WRB WRX (RIP) 04 JBP STI (sold) 07 DGM Legacy GT (RIP) 12 OBP STI (DD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoo944 Posted March 2, 2016 Author Share Posted March 2, 2016 With good Drivers yes but with a 52 or a 16G those times will not significantly improve. where are you getting that from? Your initial estimate of high 13's low 14's is off a bit..it will be faster than my 13.4 with 70 more hp, ffs and lc. I'm going to the track Sunday so I'll post my results.

LegacyKid5 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Nice numbers! Getting me excited to finish up my VF52 build and take it to Cobb for a tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Yea I have to agree the OP's car will run mid to high 12's with a good driver. My Wagon ran 13.8 many years ago before all the tuning and mods. Just on a MBC. It will run a high 12 now just by the feel and having had a car for many years that was that fast. BTW it ran the 13.8 at LVDW in NY. We also ran the civic in the avatar at 9.85 there. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD).

Thinking out side box Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 sensors still go bad, I had to replace both of mine at the same time to fix a similar issue i'm a mechanic, but that is what that code says Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ama0787 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 I agree apexi is high quality stuff how many tips is it? I love my apexi RS exhaust it is on my supra though but it has big piping while still staying quiet driving around and great when wide open Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMLegacy Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 lol guy said 14s with 300+ whp. Must be carrying a bag of cement in it. My guess is a 12.7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSpeed Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 With that hp you definitely could be in the 12s. My car dynoed at 339hp / 360 ft lbs (corrected) and I ran a 13.2 @ 106.5 at full Limited weight (3500+ lbs). Granted I'm in Denver and things are different at our altitude, but it's a fair comparison. The mphs were plenty for 12s, if only the driver were better.

wbrawley Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 One day I hope to get mine dyno'd. What's with the intercooler in the picture? Not the typical Legacy GT mounted-to-turbo style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Capacity Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Absolutely, it's so much easier to install the tmic, both my cars have one. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs.
