Subaru Legacy GT


Subaru Legacy GT

Legacy GT is subaru's line of cars which combines high performance together with comfort. The interior of this ride will make every family man drool with the engine bay packed with a 2 litre horizontally opposed flat 4 boxer engine, the twin scroll turbo charger will keep the family man happy with the easy acceleration and extremely easy to drive around our sillypore roads.

This ride comes stock as the owner enjoys the current stock setup and only want to enhance the existing setup. You are basically looking at a LTA compliant car is minimal modifications to the car. Running on legal aftermart HKS exhaust and open pod, boost controller and tuned using reflash method.

The results of this ride is impressive. After tuning, the torque and g-force of this ride increased trememdously and with the owner of this ride in the car with us during tuning, he witness for himself how rich the stock ride is running. This also explains his recent lost to a stock Euro R and has absolutely no clue why he lost till now.

Of course, we dun just fix up the entire stock GT mappings, we also increase the boost to a safe limit for maximum enjoyment.

I wouldnt exactly say this is a low budget setup since buying the car is already costing a bomb. And while most people who buy aftermart exhaust only buys 1 exhaust, the GT has to buy 2 to remain symmetric.

Overall, you'll be assured of a better fuel consumption, better and smoother pickup.

During tuning, sam was like enjoying himself alot lor. Especially in the winding bends of lim chu kang lanes, going at high speed and high boost is not something you'll get everyday. Skill wise, I must admit, this old man really got something. When we were at 40 tiang earlier, watching some drag race, he was telling us he know this guy la, that guy la... I told him, his category belong to those who is balding and walks around with beer belly liaoz la... hahaha

verdict:

Excellent for people who enjoys the current stock setup and wish to spruce up the ride a little without creating a lemon.
This setup retains the executive looks and feel. With the added bhp, he can outrun most wannabees by far.
This will definately improve the fuel consumption and release the untapped power


btw, we removed his spring boost... lucky he told us beforehand la... hahaha...

Whats lacking:
ATF cooler :)
