mtsmiths Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 2.2 auto = 2,800 rpm at 70 2.5 auto = (I dunno, the dash cluster hasn't been deBrightonized, so still no tach). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnuman Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 92 Legacy wagon, EJ22, 5MT, I tried this last night to see while on the way home: Speedo reading 70MPH, Tach sitting at 2750. Not sure how accurate the speedo is though, so I'll put the tach at 3K this afternoon and post the speed when I return. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

felipe01forester Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 2001 Forester L 2.5 5spd does about 3300 RPM @ 70. Good thing the Dallas Police are really lax about speeders! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnuman Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 92 Legacy wagon, EJ22, 5MT, I tried this last night to see while on the way home: Speedo reading 70MPH, Tach sitting at 2750. Not sure how accurate the speedo is though, so I'll put the tach at 3K this afternoon and post the speed when I return. . . 70=2750 75=2900 80=3100 I just changed the tires though from ones that were not "factory size" (p195-70R14, instead of p185-70R14) so these numbers may change. . . Or perhaps I will actually be going those speeds now. . . The speedo seems to run a few MPH high, based on the number of times I get passed at a particular speed, compared to the same speed in other cars. . . (comparison is between 3 cars: the Subie, a Dodge Caravan, and a Saturn SL1. The Caravan and the Saturn seem to agree, so the Subie is the odd one out. . .)
