wats the difference between the legacy's engine and the wrx??is the wrx jus detuned a bit?? cuz the legacy puts out 250hp n the 2rx 225 or 230???

STi-N · Postby **STi-N** » January 7th, 2008, 8:06 pm

hmm.. well i guess the legacy could cut a stock wrx a$$
but then again 15devils not exactly stock

ImprezaDriver · Postby **ImprezaDriver** » January 7th, 2008, 8:32 pm

the power is definitely more raw in a wrx..the legacy seems more refined although it's faster...

stock for stock, yes a legacy will win

The Legacy GT would lay it down on the Impreza WRX, but not on the Impreza STi...

Eh heh? That was not the situation on saturday 15 devils :twisted:

.......

Seriously though, I'd put a Legacy GT and a stock 5MT WRX at about the same.

1/4 mile E.T.s put them around both the same times.

Remember although the GT has more hp, the GT is also auto, which has more drivetrain losses than the 5MT....and the Legacy is also significantly heavier......pwr/wgt here.

The Legacy GT would lay it down on the Impreza WRX, but not on the Impreza STi...

Never had a problem with any Legacy GT with my WRX. Stock GT....easy kills. They have good top end, but lack the acceleration due to weight. If they're tuned.....it gets harder, as their twin scroll turbo gives them an edge in turbo spool.

There is one GT I'd stay very far from.....south car. Rumoured to be a stock STI killer...... :shock:

^^^ oh gosh knight1,I can't come round you,yuh show meh that saturday :lol:

...but I know of the south sti killer !! and its not a rumor....

but again,I ran a black wrx before my "step up" .....note this was using the sport shifting,if i had it on normal tranny mode,I woulda get buss.guess he got some bad gas ?

Yeah right. You know you putting out more hp than me

but I know of the south sti killer !! and its not a rumor....

Well you should know the car too :wink:

It is damn fast.

Nah boi.....on pump gas, an untuned WRX might have some pressure if his car was knocking and what not. Depends. Or maybe he just was granny shifting.

the wrx on stock boost 14.3 with just an exhaust
i saw 2 legacys hit 13.6 and 13.9 with the same mod, but one was man\the other
was auto. i dont know the boost the legacys were running.

Alpha_2nr · Postby **Alpha_2nr** » January 8th, 2008, 10:55 am

^^IIRC that 13.6 Legacy was running a Boost Controller...so that can't count. Maybe the ACT Clutch would have helped his launch also.

A stock WRX with just an exhaust system AND high flow cat hit 13.9/14.0 thereabouts. Times were decreased to 13.7 with proper fuel and ECU recalibration (with stock boost still maintained). You can check the verification of this number on Prodrive's website, on their description of their packages.

I've never timed my car at it's new power levels to determine ETA over stock....so Wooosah :roll:

good info guys...

scooby · Postby **scooby** » January 17th, 2008, 9:20 am

i remember the first time i raise my boost in the legacy

i stuck behind a STI like glue

pm me for details

Alpha_2nr · Postby **Alpha_2nr** » January 17th, 2008, 11:04 am

^^Sounds interesting....or the STi really wasn't pushing.

Had a Legacy GT try to run up on me a few days ago......i kept it in fourth and maintained my distance from the moron w/o even pushing the car to full throttle. :lol:

Good thing......the poor fellow even did the driveby-on-the-shoulder...when every other sane person was slowing down for traffic.......just so he could pass and show off his amazing power :roll:

^^^ ah boy,you just keep adding the kills to your list eh ? :lol:

was it a new shape legacy by chance ?

HORESTER · Postby **HORESTER** » January 17th, 2008, 3:08 pm

How much mods will it take to get a 2000 STi Forester up to the GT speed.
Would running at 18-20 lbs on forged internals do the trick?

Alpha_2nr · Postby **Alpha_2nr** » January 17th, 2008, 3:13 pm

^^^ ah boy,you just keep adding the kills to your list eh ? was it a new shape legacy by chance ?

Yep. Sedan version to yours PCC. I doubt it was tuned.

And yes I still maintain that 15devils will beat me on the 1320.

15devils · Postby **15devils** » January 17th, 2008, 7:19 pm

^^^LOL .....but for real...I think at the end of the day,it always comes down to power to weight........but what about a touge battle..initial d style :twisted:

wrx once tuned will kill a legacy

but wrx can never hold on a to a legacy on launch if the person knows how to launch the legacy
