Raptor Supercharged 6Gen 2015+ Subaru Legacy 3.6R CVT

The 6Gen 2015+ Subaru Legacy 3.6R #CVT is a nice package, just like the 5Gen to be #Supercharged or #Turbocharged. The latter is the 5EAT for those who may not remember or now starting to love #Subaru. With indirect transmission tuning, there is no issue tuning this model for the performance you need but owners must remember this platform runs tight engine tolerances and does heat up pretty quickly, so it is important that you keep everything cooled – Engine Coolant, especially Engine and Transmission Oil. It would be advisable to run bigger oil and transmission coolers if you plan to run the car above average and in hot climatic regions. Besides heat, the only issue we see for SC operations is the belt, which is nothing new for any SC, and belt torque is very important.

Please note for any boosted application, we recommend cooling the Air-charged and running a BPV plummed back to the intake like in other Turbocharged Subaru’s. If possible, try to keep the MAF in the original location, if not, it would be a little more tuning but we advise full customised tuning and not drop-in-based maps or maps considered to be full tunes.

Xtreme Racing Tuning has been tuning Boosted-NA’s for 10+ years and is your trusted resource for your next project. We can safely say we have been sharing such results for years outside of customers’ own posts for global reference.

Subaru Ascent Tuning

XRT is the only Tuning company beside Cobb Tuning to demonstrate it tuning capabilities and the release of tuning information to the World before any other tuning companies. In fact, tuning companies requires Cobb Tuning to support these models. XRT don’t! Thats being innovative and creative!

Please also note XRT is a Cobb Protuner and we support tuning of the Subaru Ascent using the Cobb Accessport.

In respect to our research and development (as shown at the very below) on the Subaru Ascent & the FA24DIT operating in this vehicle, we are offering Stage 0 and 1 tuning support to owners with the following requirements:

  • Tuning that does not require a device to be installed in the car
  • Improve driveability with clear objectivity in engine response
  • Improve Fuel Mileage
  • Reduce throttle lag
  • Better sounding throaty engine
  • A little more pep (Stage 1)
  • Improve CVT Operations

The tuning is really considered for those not liking the small little issues as highlighted in our XRT Subaru Ascent Whatsapp group – https://chat.whatsapp.com/E1dPtXGgn3oEJAEm6P3aeU
