Legacy GT vs. LE5 Turbo

So my buddy just picked up a Legacy GT Spec B and I just turboed my car, he didn't believe me that I would be putting down high 200's wheel (and he has 250ish crank) so ran his mouth a ton! Lol its all in good fun though, so I finally got him to run. Got three clean runs on on the gopro. His is stock with a short throw, and mine my list is in the link in my sig, running at 9 psi until I get my 80's in

damn what tune did he have? Can't believe you were on the stock tune and did that lol. Just a simple hp tune and you would have put miles on him!

Cobb something or other. I don't really know too well. I was also weighed down from all the passangers

Those Spec B's are nice. Way better than any STi or WRX

I work for subaru and am in a tough place. Used WRX/STI/Legacy GT's and Forester xt's are so rare to find used in good shape the resale value is RETARDED!!!!!!!!!!!!!! .

a 2004 Forester XT with 100,000 is still over $10,000. A new 2013 WRX base is about $26,000. With my dealership discount I could get one for maybe a pinch under $24,000. and 2010/11 are still going for $20,000+ used. I still see 2003-2004 STI's for over $17,000!

Nice!!! I raced a legacy wagon one time and it was basically dead even with him pulling slightly! He said it was Stage 2 with a solid tune.

Cause I still enjoy the SS for what it was and like helping out people with them. I'm an overall car guy. Didn't know I had to be tied down to one brand.

Probably because you live in Cananda. Canada has lots of snow. AWD does well in the snow.

I said I was sorry, why you no forgive me? My SS was a lot faster than my STi. It was heavily modded. The STi is stock and will stay that way.

Just sold a 2013 Plasma Blue (purple) STI to a friend of mine, he was pissed it had the same radio/speakers as a $18,000 base model impreza! really sucks when you think about it.
