Legacy 3.0R Help

[abedoya87]

the boxer h6 engine is very powerfull, altough there are not many possibilites for enhacements due to it aint a turbo, what mainly enhacements can be done? the acceleration of this car stock is 8 seconds but I think that aint so true cause I feel it very fast just like mi friend honda civic SI, which 0-60 mph is 6.5 secs, so i wanted to know if that info was reliable, please enlight me and help me for what upgrades can be done.

thank you

Contract Deltacam.com to make some custom camshafts, that will prob make the biggest difference. I don't know their pricing.

Aftermarket exhaust 2.5" exhaust from the heads on back, with high flow cats.

Standalone ecu will let you eke out more power with the above upgrade.

5 or 6-speed swap.

Sadly none of these are cheap.

Thanks bro, I willl have a good look to those suggestions, unfortunately it is never cheap, I want to make abig difference in the launching power and since mine is 5EAT it is even harder because de 6MT is like 1 sec faster and has better control of the revvs while shifting, the triptonic gears wont ever be as good as a MT (that is just my perception)

Another benefit of an STI 6mt is they have a front mechanical limited slip, and if you do the whole swap, you get it's mechanical rear differential. If you get the 6mt with the DCCD (driver center controlled differential) and an aftermarket controller you control how much power goes to the front or rear wheels.

I've never driven a manual EZ30R Legacy, but I have driven a 6mt swapped SVX. And that h6 with a manual is magic! Power all over the place. So much fun... My buddy is thinking about selling it, but there's no way I could afford it at this point... :-(
