2008 Legacy 2.5GT 5eat.

[jeremiah]

So I am really hoping that this forum is not like the rest "*#*#*#*# INFO".

I have a 2008 LGT that I would like to start building up. And what I mean by that is. I am looking to achieve 300 AWHP but at the same time maintain a healthy DD. Now I do understand thee importance of watching what you bolt on. What I need help with is "with those bolt on mods, how do I find a good baseline?" am i running to rich? Is a VF52 to big of turbo? Or do I have a great template sitting right in front of me waiting to be unchoked from the shitty factory tune? any help would be great!

Greetings jeremiah and welcome to our TorqueCars forum

Subaru is not a car I am familiar with, but we do have a Japanese car specialist on here who has an extensive knowledge on tuning these cars to a ridiculously high level. @SLEEPER hopefully if the main man sees this he will be able to put a few suggestions your way.

Good luck

that turbo can produce that power but you will need bigger injectors and a few other mods. There is also bound to be more lag - you cant get that power from nothing.
Regardless of what info is out there I would always look at fitting a better ECU so you can get a proper remap.
I would also look at the borg warner efr range as the new technology will almost certainly give a better spool up with the same power.
And remeber that much more power will need better brakes etc etc
