Platinum_Racing Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Is there ANYWHERE to get performance parts for the 90-94 Legacy's? The best I can find is underpulley's which I'm not to crazy about. Ignition's seem to be a pain. Too bad too, I have an MSD Blaster ignition coil sitting in my basement that would've been awesome on this car if it wasn't for that primitive coilpack strapped to my intake manifold..... Oh well. I've already got a short ram, Thrush muffler (Not the ricy kind...), and Bosch Platinum+2 plugs. I'd say all that combined adds about 1 or 2 HP...... :lol: She's well maintained... Fresh tranny flush with new filter, oil changes every 3K miles, new plug wires ect... What about injectors? I was tinkering with the thought in my mind, but I'm not sure if the trade off with fuel economy would be worth it. What do you guys think. She's already a pig on gas as it is. Also, instead of buying new oxygen sensors, do you guys think I'd be fine just removing mine and cleaning them with some oxygen sensor safe fuel injector cleaner. Maybe if I let them sit in it overnight and uses my air compressor to blow them off before reinstalling them would breath new life into them. What do you guys think?

KnifeyMcShanker Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 First off, check here: http://www.legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=61712 Pretty much anything that bolts on to another EJ2x series non-turbo will work on your engine... What MSD coil is that? There is a popular mod for these engines involving a conversion to a MSD coil meant for a dodge neon, as long as yours works on wasted spark it should work. Bigger injectors aren't going to do anything. Dumping more fuel into there will just mess things up, you only need them if you have more air coming in, ie a turbo. Depending on how much cash you have, you can have cams reground for your motor by web cams or delta cams. I know delta also does head work as well. About the oxygen sensors, I'd just get new ones. They're pretty cheap if you get them at Kragen or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum_Racing Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 It's a Blaster III. Same thing as a Blaster II only with a ballast resistor (Which I removed). http://twincamtech.stores.yahoo.net/msdblas3coil.html For some reason this website says the Blaster III doesn't have a ballast resistor, but it really does. The site has it backwards. If you don't believe me you can look up a Blaster II and see the difference. The Ballast resistor is the plastic thing on top with the heatsink-looking things. I'd really like more info on the ignition mod. I really want to get this ignition coil on that motor. It did wonders in the last car it was in, and I want to see how it works on the Subie. As far as that link goes, I'm gonna bookmark it since it's got a bunch of good info and some very good links, but I was hoping for first generation specific parts. Got any links for first gen parts?

KnifeyMcShanker Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Nevermind, I was thinking about something else. That mod only works with the waste spark Ignition coil packs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old legacy GT Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 fi you upped your comp ratio you could do with the bigger injectors!! you already have the flow now so get some pistons grind the cams have the heads planed and ported put in pistons and youl have a killer on your hands!

Platinum_Racing Posted April 26, 2009 Author Share Posted April 26, 2009 Yeah, if I was gonna rebuild the motor I would definatly do all that and more (ARP studs, phase 2 SOHC heads with the narrow valve angle), custom headers and all that jazz... I was more interested in bolt ons. Like I said, if someone could find me some info on the ignition swap I'd greatly appreciate it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnifeyMcShanker Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I posted a reply with a step-by-step in another thread, too lazy to look for a link right now. Was yesterday I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
