Ngoshe88 Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I know I'm going to get a lot if stick for saying this, but turbo lag is actually a good thing-particularly if your Legacy is your daily driver. Let me explain. I have a an 05 Spec.B with a twin scroll turbo. It really doesn't kick in till about 3000rpm, which is good because for every day tasks (driving to work, to the shops, taking my pregnant girl friend to a doctor's appointment) I really don't need power at low revs. I need a calm, steady 'ordinary' performance just to get around. However there comes a time in every Subie owners life when peddle to the metal is the only way to settle a score at the traffic lights or on the motorway - and that is when I need boost. In the Legacy you can drive like a gentleman one second and blow past like a maniac the next, thanks in part to turbo lag. #myTwoCents Sent from my HUAWEI MT7-L09 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starionesir Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Was thinking the same thing. Wish my Dom 3 kicked at 3k. Course I'd probably have broken my transmission or diff by now if it did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
