Just did a quick google search and it looks like stock Legacy GTs run 13.9-14.8. Pretty much on par with the SS! haha

You really think the SS is going to be a 13.9 car? Your hoping for a lot there. Just don't cry when it rolls a 14.8
User name: NY2005GT
60' time: 1.915
1/4 mile time: 13.989
trap speed: 98.21
track: Lebanon Valley Dragway
elevation: 660FT
temperature: 61 degrees
year of car: 2005
turbo: Stock
octane of gas used: 93
Water Injection: no
Nitrous: no
Tires:Nitto NT-01 20 PSI
Other supporting modifications: None
At a local track too... not too shabby.
And yes the black will be hard to keep clean but oh well, when you want a certain drive line that is VERY hard to find you take it in any color, and I didn't care what color it was, and I didn't have a preference either.
I am tempted to see what it looks like with the 17's on it... Hell the pink car is up on stands now... Minus the back end of it, so I would have to put the DR's on LOL

I'll be somewhere in the 13.9-14.8 range, I have no doubt about it. And do you really think I'll only be a tenth quicker than my black car was?
Does the LGT has Brembos or regular Legacy brakes like Tiffany's? It almost looks like 18s in that pic you posted, but I could be wrong.
edit: Nvm I just took another look and you have the same setup as her. Must be the spec B's that have Brembos.

spec b have the same brakes as well. Its only the STI that comes with the Brembo's... The Spec B is really only a interior appearance package, shocks and aluminum suspension components, and for the 07+ ones they got the 6 speed manual vs the 5, I think the rest of the engine was exactly the same, and the car weighed more... and yeah 18" rims over the 17's I have but also a slightly larger tire so it almost negates the 6 speed but not totally.
You hope it's quicker than only a 10th off the black car... LOL

I think it will be a little while before I go nuts on it... But I will probably be buying a short ram intake for it real soon... I no likey the quite air box... you can't hear the BOV recirc the air... its no fun.
If your not familiar with it, the BOV's stock are technically BPV aka bypass valves, that just recirculate the blow off back into the intake POST maf sensor, otherwise air that has been metered by the MAF would vanish and the car would run rich and backfire on every shift, SO being recirculated the air box mutes all that noise.

Accessport is best bang for buck. My buddies sti is pulling 4.8 0-60 with just intake catback and Cobb. Plus it's reversable

does it have the top mounted intercooler that actually takes advantage of the hood scoop.
how does the exhaust sound? at idle and driving.
i dont really have a color preference but id like to stay away from black. but hell if it fits the bill on what i want ill take it.
