@@jqueeb1558 right but "boxer rumble" or "Subie burble" refers specifically to the flat-4 sound with unequal length headers. The flat-6 has the same "sound profile" as other six-pots with similar exhaust setups.
@@rsubie I so wish they sold the EZ engine with a manual transmission in the USDM. The Legacy GT could've had its own identity besides just a bigger and more luxurious WRX
@@nthgth Also boxer rumble is just pretty much sound of 2, 2 cylinder engines. Half of the time i hear that sounds its either WRX STi or 2 cylinder sport bikes. They sound nearly identical save for a bit less grunty sound due to lower displacement.
@@rsubie _Lucky!_ North America never got the flat-six with a manual in any Subaru (I don't think). And they gave you guys one of the best manual boxes out there!
@@robertocruz6316 no I don’t think so. Legacy spec.b 3.0 from 2003-2005 is the equivalent model. They seem to be rare from my research but they do exist with a 3.0 and a 6 speed in other markets than Australia
Raptor headers, 2.5 inch pipe with 2 200cell cats, hotdog resonator and ultrex mufflers. Have an invidia q300 catback now and sounds way better. Can’t get clips atm because I’m in lockdown

@@rsubie no an H engine is two flat engines placed on top of one another and the cranks are connected via gears The best example is the H12 in the leman winning car the Porsche 917
@@sagenbabin8786 No, noone in modern day thinks of these nonexistant engine types when they hear H4 or H6. It's always horizontally opposed engines, its so in official promotional materials from Subaru, its either boxer 4/6 or h4/6 motor. Flat engine is also incorrect because only shared crankpin car(which also is not a boxer because of that) is Ferrari Testarossa. In both Porsche and Subaru engines it's independed crankpins and boxing motion meaning both pistons go outwards and inwards at the same time. Flat engine is more like some of the V motors where it cant do that, when one sides piston goes up other one goes down. This is why Subaru and Porsche horizontal/flat engines are boxers.
@@nthgth Yes, for intends and purposes that's what it is. There are differences from that fact like crankcase doesnt exist and ints instead a splitblock design, but in basic principle it is a flattened V design.
"Boxer rumble" is great and all, but a 6-cylinder wail is its own kind of awesome. Great sound you got there.
it is a boxer tho

I’ve modified the setup a bit and it’s almost perfect. Need to get a good video and do a part two

1:59 is the best bit.
Agreed!
Wow that sounds really good considering. Usually they sound terrible with headers and high flow cats. Somehow you managed to keep the rasp at bay
I’ll be honest it’s a bit raspy under high load at about 3k but the rest is fine for me
@@rsubie i sweat the only time i had zero rasp was true dual 3inch with zero mufflers only resonators.
Am I the only one who noticed the sound of a stick shift? That's the stuff
6 speed sti box from factory
Hell yea that's my dream car right there

Wow if u like agressive sound, this set up is just perfect! 👌
That sounds incredible bro. You’ve just made this a new sound i much aquire
Porsche 911 at home:
this video is the main reason i am getting a subie
Made my day with that comment bro. Appreciate it
If you’re just rolling at 5 mph or so, I think you may be able to bypass the 5k rpm limiter
Goddamn that sounds amazing. My JDM Legacy sounds a bit boring with EL headers...
are they unequal length headers? or what did you do to the exhaust?
Nice wheels
They should’ve offered that engine in the Crosstrek
Agree, but a WRX powertrain Crosstrek seems a lot less of a pipe dream
bruh what exhaust setup u running man? that sound mint mate rlly nice

@@rsubie And how about now?
Did you get clips yet
Nice NA sound.
i straight piped my h6 but have way too drone, back with stocks one for now
Straight pipes will always sound shit and drone. Mufflers are your friend
Sounds nice, what are you running?

Did you swap your legacy into a ez30 (h6 ) or h6 from factory
We dont have h6 wagon legacy in canada !
Factory spec b 3.0R. Australian delivered cars came with the h6. Have seen a few swaps around the internet but not locally
You can import from Japan
Sound's like a Porsche.
Uses a rather similar H6 engine, my 18’ Outback in higher rev ranges sounds sort of like an H6 911
sounds like an inline 4 superbike
whats the set up
Raptor headers
200 cel cats
3rd cat delete
Generic catback with ultrex mufflers

Sounds like half an SV6.
wheel size, offset, name
Ah yep, ultrex RS 18x8 +42
I hope that's not your actual licence plate haah
Filmed on a closed course 😅
It’s technically not a h 6 it’s just a flat 6 an h6 would not be possible
The H means Horizontal
6 means Cylinders
H6
