About this remap

Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT 265 hp Stage 1 — what changes

The Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT 265 hp (2009–) leaves the factory at 265 BHP and 350 Nm of torque. Manufacturers deliberately detune this engine to separate it from more expensive variants in the range — a Regal Tuning Stage 1 calibration safely recovers that headroom through the ECU alone: no hardware changes, no dyno risk, fully reversible.

Fuelling, boost pressure, ignition and torque limiters are optimised within the safe tolerances of the 2.5 GT 265 hp powertrain (petrol). The result is 280 BHP and 370 Nm with factory smoothness, cold-start protection and emissions behaviour retained.
