apexjapan Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 The DBW has 3 settings for wet/rain/mud, normal, and 9 stages of "power" settings. Easy to fine tune to your preferences. People can certainly get a re-tune instead - except if you have an n/a which Cobb doesn't support any more, and opensource doesn't have definitions for. Having sold several turbo kits for the 2.5i and having to get definitions created for over half those customers, I can say it's 50/50 of finding a tuning solution for a particular model. The exhaust and intake is the increase - dbw is for having it feel better.

Leviman Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I made definitions work for my 2.5i, just to tune the DBW system haha. So definitions are out there for N/A cars. Even if they might take a bit of tweaking to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodax Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Paul, do you have any idea how much gains would there be with the exhaust + the filter + a tune? Also, do you do any tunes for N/A cars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leke Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 If you're interested in tuning the 3.0R, your best bet is to hit up the Australian Legacy (Liberty) forums. I've been lurking on their forums for a few years and it seems like they're the ones who are doing the most with the N/A engine. It's mainly due to the high prevalence of the 3.0R down there. That and the fact that they have a Spec.B version of the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leke Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Even without the header, it may still be possible to hunt down a basic tune, or at least find out exactly how they're tuning their vehicles. I would imagine that's the best way to get the full benefits of what Paul's offering here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apexjapan Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Paul, do you have any idea how much gains would there be with the exhaust + the filter + a tune? Also, do you do any tunes for N/A cars? It's only an estimate, but probably between 10-20hp maximum. I actually don't have much experience with the 3.0-liters personally, I know much more about the 2.0 and 2.5 liter n/a's and turbo models. For the same reason I don't think I'd be up for tuning the 3.0-liter. While it's probably not too complicated, it's just not an area I'm personally familiar with.

apexjapan Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Just a fun little progression of recovering a muffler tip from long burnt plastic. yeah, pretty ugly. http://www.avoturboworld.com/images/muffler/muffler_fix_001.jpg Heat gun set to Obliviate to soften it up a bit. It and a box knife blade for the major stuff. http://www.avoturboworld.com/images/muffler/muffler_fix_002.jpg After trying a variety of other chemical methods, it got down to doing it the hard way. http://www.avoturboworld.com/images/muffler/muffler_fix_003.jpg Now for the fun part... http://www.avoturboworld.com/images/muffler/muffler_fix_004.jpg A lot of polishing via what was on hand. Having all the proper equipment (big buffers) would help, but I'm not set up for that. http://www.avoturboworld.com/images/muffler/muffler_fix_005.jpg And then the final touch by hand. http://www.avoturboworld.com/images/muffler/muffler_fix_006.jpg Regards, Paul Hansen http://www.avoturboworld.com http://www.facebook.com/avoturboworld Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GEE-OTTO Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Paul, Is a returned 2.5i muffler ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apexjapan Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Well, we don't have any specific 2.5i mufflers, as the LGT mufflers fit. That's one area that's pretty much the same across all the models, other than the wagon/sedan tip lengths.

Planner Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 It's not too complicated - you are basically letting it know where 0% and 100% throttle is. That's measured by a voltage signal (drive by wire....), and the box mainly needs to know what the specifics are for your vehicle. So you start that process, press a button when there's no pressure on the throttle, then after it "learns" that, you mash the throttle to 100%, press the set button, and you are ready to go. Here's a sound clip/video of just the mufflers on my Outback. They have the downturned tips (because Outback), but the basic muffler design is the same. Regards, Paul Hansen http://www.avoturboworld.com http://www.facebook.com/avoturboworld Paul - do you have a part number on those mufflers? Sound (not too loud) and style (nice, but unobtrusive) is exactly what I'm looking for on my 06 Outback 2.5I. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yimminstine Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Alright so I'm new to this website I just bought a 2010 Legacy 2.5i with 6spd Manual and I'm toying with the idea of getting some upgrades, mainly going dual exhaust over my stock exhaust system. I've only been looking for a couple days but performance parts seem to be hard to find for a 2.5i at least in 2010 is this kit coming out for my year? or does it already work with it?
