Look this guy thinks a Legacy 98 GTB out peforms a VR4. The 2005 GT can only manage 0 -100 in about 6.5 secs, god knows how slow a 98 model is. About the only advantage the Legacy has is fuel consumption.

Twin Turbo 2 litre boxer. The Turbos are sequential rather than concurrent. Quick car but not in the same league as a VR4. I should know - I had one

So are they that much slower than us? Stock for stock will a legnum VR-4 leave it far behind or will it be more a case of the leggie 'walking slowly away' from it?:inquisiti

They are similar cars. There is a magazine review somewhere on this site. Reckon I can find it?

They definately aren't as fast as a VR-4, there is a big gap of power in the rev range between turbos and they are even harder than our cars to get power out of due to the funny sequential setup

Not to mention no power or torque down low and that famous EJ20 unreliability.

I think they do 0-100Km in about 6.7 secs
