    JBCLegacy's 2002 Subaru Legacy GT

    2002 Subaru Legacy Gt limited

    Betty



    Engine:
    JDM ej20 turbo swap
    stock vf29 turbo
    03 WRX intake manifold and injectors, ECU http://www.steelhorseautomotive.ca/
    K&N drop in panel filter
    Bellmouth catted downpipe
    custom SS 3"-2.5" exhaust to twin tail http://www.re-speed.com/

    Drivetrain:
    1992 turbo 3.90 5spd
    frankenstein'd 3.90/4.11 rear diff
    Cobb shift bushings
    Exedy OEM clutch

    Suspension/Brakes:
    JDM Bilstein struts
    H&R springs
    Group a endlinks on all corners
    Whiteline rear swaybar with bushings
    Braided brake lines on OEM calipers and discs
    Sitting on XXR 530; 17x8.25, with cheapo tires..
    235/45/17

    Interior:
    Blacked wood grain trim
    DDin JVC Headunit
    WRX seats (mounted on the Legacy rails for lower position)
    Leather rear seat (for the 5yr in the back)
    leds in the easier swap spots
    wired dashcam
    tint

    Exterior:
    JDM tail lights and centre
    rolled and stretched wheel arches
    CF scooped hood
    custom cut, smoothed, badged 'L' grill
    Outback bumper skin and foglights
    cleared headlights

    ...There is so much more I would like to do, I've owned her since late 2007, and the swap only happened this year! Budgeting has been reasonably tight since, but my wife was kind enough to give the go ahead on the exhaust for my August birthday.
    I've had some help from some other Scoob people here in London to make things possible
    I try to do as much as I can, but take it to the shops for stuff thats over my head or beyond my equipment/tool availability.

    Hoping to progress on a short shifter, Accessport, speakers... the stuff that always seems to find priority further down the list, and I try to find the 'previously enjoyed' parts.

    I'm aware of someone asking for more pics between the first year of ownership and this year, but to be honest, there aren't many! Just a few of some accident damage and a couple from some meets here and there, this last summer the pics have been worthy!

    Here's a sound clip!

    Had an issue with boost surge, so I decided to replace my questionable 'boost' hoses with some eBay stuff..





    I'll be looking into better securing the intercooler next, will need to make up some brackets to hold it down. I have some zip ties holding in place for now.

    Re: Update

    Well, that did squat..
    Flow is better, don't hear noisy leaks, but unfortunately I still have a surge issue.
    I suspect the BPV spring is too strong and is creating a flow problem, any ideas from anyone??

    I did find something about a three port solenoid that can solve this problem, I may try that next

    Wow, that is a really sharp looking car. Good luck on your surging.
