Hi, I have a Japanese import Legacy[1] with the stock McIntosh CD/MD/Radio unit and I'm looking to: 1) fit a band expander to adjust the 76-90 MHz to 88-108 ...
I'm looking for some assitance with this error code. The car is a 12/93 Legacy GT TT. I have had the car for nearly two and a half years now. About 5 months ...
Does sound like the sensor's failed, if it's returning a constant voltage - you'd expect it to change as the primary turbo spooled up (secondary still switched...
Matt, interesting that I should bump into you here. You won't realise who I am, but I'm one of your resellers in Sydney, the one with the terminal issues ... ...
Guys & Girls, I hope all are well. Just wondering, can anybody remember where the details were located to convert a legacy to parallel turbo setup instead of...

Two days ago my car lost power, basically it has like 20 H.P. left in it, it wouldn't accelerate (almost), and its even difficult to move from a stand still. ...
That's an interesting idea! i may try it. but this diagrams are not enough (i guess). if someone has more tech info on this kind of conversion, please let me ...
Thanks Adrian. The guy who needs it actually has a stroked B4, out to a 2.5 from memory, and the turbo's aren't giving him enough when run in sequential setup....
Your stating in the header "strange engine sound" leads me to ponder that it might be a primary turbo is blown. if it is a high pitch zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz'ing...
Not too sure if people have been following our updates, but thought it would be appropriate to post a reminder what we have recently achieved. Incredible...
Steve, Thanks for the advice, I don't think it's the turbo problem, because i was getting reading on the turbo gauge. I will check the turbo, and oil lines....
You do realise, don't you, that in the sequential setup both turbos run together anyway after the transition, ie above 4500rpm. Somebody on here experimented...
Yeh, I do thanks. Using a primary housing with a secondary core is actually the best method, hybridising the primary in this way produces the quickest response...
Hi i'm new to the Group and am looking for answers to help me decide whether or not to buy a 1999 GTB that's for sale locally here in Malaysia. It's a 2.0L...
Hi Brian, You really need to take the car for a drive. Firstly, scan the archives for references to "VOD" and what it takes to avoid it. Check for oil leaks...
I have a 1995 GT Twin Turbo Manual Estate, I have been using a mechanical boost controller for about a year and have decided to return the car to 'standard'...
ECU reset? Not sure how your setup worked because mine seemed to only work with the standard boost controller in-line with the mechanical boost controller. I ...

Jeffrey,With the original pipe there is a restriction pill in the turbo outlet side of the tee,If put on the wrong way you will get only wastgate actuaor...
Thanks Steve, Okay that certainly explains the power graphs i've seen and the reason i've seen some go from a twin to single turbo. Know anything about the...
Wayne, Fantastic advice !!! This is exactly what the problem was, turned the pipe round and 'normal' boost has returned nearly ! The system is now oscillating...
Hi Brian, If I recall correctly, the D revision (BE5D as opposed to BE5A/BE5B/BE5C) had uprated rear links which did make a significant change to handling to ...
Guys, very interesting reading. As I had similar problems a while back, they seems to have been fixed once the piece from the prim-wastgate to the T were...
Adrian, if it is the same as my MY02, there is no number. The restrictor can be felt if you squeeze along the hose between the "T" and the turbo outlet side....
Adrian, The hose number coming off the T piece and between the T piece and the waste gate is 23. There was no number on the small piece of pipe between the T ...
Thanks Steve for your replies, most helpful. I've just placed a deposit down on a white 1999 B4 with 42k kms on the clock. Comes with 18" rims (wet sand...
