Recommended Posts

I have a 2005 Legacy GT 5eat and are looking for other mod ideas of the car?

 

The car is currently on stage 2 e-tune from Brentuning via Accessport v2

Never been on a dyno, but according to Virtual Dyno (we all know how that goes ) the car makes around 260whp and 300tq.

*Have not gotten a revised tune for the AVO intercooler or BOV*

 

Exhaust/Air:

 

VF40 OEM turbo

Catless Invidia UP

Catted 5EAT Invidia DP

X02 Catback with resonator (eBay exhaust)

AVO TMIC with red silicone TB Hose

GFB Respons 100% adjustable BOV

AVO red silicone intake hose

K&N drop in filter

Mishimoto Oil catch can

 

 

Suspension:

 

Front KYB struts with JDM STi Pinks

Rear Bilstien struts with JDM STi Pinks

 

Exterior:

 

'08 LGT Wheels Plastidipped Matte White (Painted gunmetal underneath)

15% Tint

TYC headlights

5k Morimoto HID Kit

Yellow Nokya bulbs in High Beam

Yellow Lamin-x Fogs

Zag Taillight Overlays

Rallyarmor UR Mudflaps with Red lettering

 

 

Interior/Audio:

 

STi Automatic shiftknob

eBay universal shift boot with red stitching

Ipod/Sirius Satellite Radio hookup in cubby

1000W Kenwood Amp/12 inch Kenwood Sub in trunk

LED lights EVERYWHERE (map, dome, license plate, courtesy lights ect)

 

Any suggestion on new mods would be much appreciated. :)

Get a new tune asap with the blow off . Next logical step would be handling. Sway bars, bushings all that . Also id get rid of the k&n filter especially if its oil.

I bought an auto be more involved in my uninvolvedness . 200k+ Club

If you can't blind them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit.

My high mileage turd.

How many miles are on the car? Any big plans or goals? do you autox or just daily drive the car? not knowing those things, this would be my recommendation:

 

1) get a new tune for the parts you added

2) I dont hate k&n filters that much, but I prefer the OEM paper filter. Problem with K&n is if you under oil you let a ton of dust in, and if you over oil that's bad too. its a good idea to clean the maf sensor when you change the oil.

3) any potentially neglected maintenance items? e.g. power steering fluid, brake fluid, rear diff, etc. Nothing like some good preventative maintenance...

4) bushings. inexpensive ways to improve feel. might not save seconds on a race track, but for a daily driver I think that the improvement is worth the time and expense.

I suggest a Cleansweep, similar sound processor, JDM double din or 2006+ headunit. Your audio upgrades are very limited by the sound coming out of the 2005 head unit.

-Pulley
