Legacy GT engine cover

I am in the works of some changes on the motor and no longer want it covered up.

The engine cover is off Heedz old Legacy and was modified to work on the 2008+ WRX's.

I'm looking for $60 picked up!

I'm located in Modesto...

I'll post some pics very soon....

No, sorry I never come up that way. It was a last minute decision to sell it, I am hoping to go with a 2008 STI intake and a Intercooler when taxes arrive. I found out they screwed up my taxes and never included my education refund which was a pretty good lump sum.

You do know our plastic intake manifold disperses heat better right? Only advantage to STi one is the intercooler. With that said you'll need a STi intake manifold, throttle body, intercooler and a hose for the VF52 since its legacy style flanged. A lot of work for no gains. You are right though, it does look pretty.

Ya, it's a lot of work for nothing per say but i live the looks of the STI setup. Heck, I wish I had the VF52, I have the 2008 so I'm stuck with the baby td04, but hope to go BNR VF40 18G swap in the near future!

But if you're going with the sti intercooler, you would need a vf48 as well..

I just read about that last night. Looks like this might be a bigger headache than I thought. Either way I'm selling the cover

It's not worth swapping to the STi style set up trust me.
