Be carefull with Pistons Dan, you need to plan a good Comp ratio, And when buying seals and gaskets.. apart from head gaskets, always buy oem. Id also get my valves seats re cut, a block can only be as good as your heads,
Have you tweak mapped it again to suit the new engine? Have you been able to give it a good workout or do you have to wait till after this next oil change?
Been revved to about 6k have had 2-3 revisions of map on new engine. Still a bit more to get out of map though when i stick on the fmic. Gearbox is tried and tested in US legacys some guys running 350whp for last 2 or more years with no issues so it should hold up fine if i do go for a bigger Turbo in a few months. Its a never ending story alright
Hey Dan, it`s an old topic but as soon as I saw "Legacy" I got into it. I have a problem with my 2006 Estate non turbo 2.0L petrol. I`ve been in two garages and none of them could help, they send me to someone who specializes in Subaru engines..I`d appreciate some recommendations i.e. a mechanic in Kildare or Dublin that would take the engine out and maybe take it apart to figure out what the hell the problem is
