DareGT's 1998 Subaru Legacy

Let me know what ya think of my ride, it's a work in progress and i've loved every second of it so far and can't wait to do more. So far i've noticed a surprising difference in performance from the few mods i've made, and the sound of the engine almost makes up for having a stock exhaust. Weapon R really is a great bang for the buck, it gave lots of high end torque, and the time it takes to get from 60mph to 100mph has been dramatically reduced. The Perrin crank pulley of course is high quality and gave me some noticable gains in the low end torque department. Although it is a lil' pricey, it was well worth the money. I've switched to sythetic oil, Pennzoil Platnium with a Mobil 1 filter. I've noticed the engine running alot smoother, too soon to tell if the milage is much better. I just got an Eastern High-Flow f+r cat with mid pipe and a SPT Performance Muffler made by Bosal which have really impressed me. The system isn't too loud but loud enough to know it's there and not stock, a nice low rumble at idle and a deep blare when accelerating. It looks great and was all direct fit which made things alot easier. The best thing about it is the performance gain(all I can say is wow). Just recently I put together my own engine ground with some 8 gauge wire, 4 gauge wire, a Scosche distribution block, and a Scosche Terminal. Also added a Cusco front strut bar. I'm gonna keep at it and hopefully there will be many more updates to this page in the future. Feel free to leave a comment.
