Can anyone tell me the part numbers for

NGK Plugs

KN Filter

Oil Filter

Can I use synthetic oil ?

I have a 2.5 engine

Its on the NGK site...but here it is:

 

2000 SUBARU LEGACY OUTBACK 2.5 H4 EJ25D2 EFI DOHC

 

Spark Plug Part No. Stock No. Plug Gap

Standard BKR6ES-11 5553 .044

V-Power BKR6E-11 2756 .044

G-Power Platinum BKR6EGP 7092 .044

Laser Platinum PFR6B-11 * 4014 .044

OE Laser Iridium IFR6E11 ^ 6741 .044

Iridium IX BKR6EIX-11 3764 .044

 

K&N air filter website says 33-2154 is the part number for that.

 

 

Oil filters...well, the Subaru OEM ones are just Puralator...and they are cheap and decent filters. The PureONE filters are PL14460 and the regular ones are L14460.

 

Sure, use synthetic oil. Do a search for it on the board. Some say different things...some pros and cons. Check it out.

I would suggest using Synthetic it may leak a little more but it last longer and has higher resistance to heat. You have to rember the K&n dont seem to fitler that well. You could just put in a STi one there about $70 but i would trust it alot more than i would a K&n probley filters better and flows around the same amount of air. http://www.subaruparts.com/catalog/?section=405

It's a load of crap to say that K&N filters don't filter well. I've had one in my '98 OBW for 30,000 mi. with no problems. The intake system is filthy before the filter and clean after it. I live on a dirt road to boot.

Just so many there are many sites that state that this is true, for the very little increase in airflow that K&N's afford they also allow much larger particles to enter the engine. If you have a Cummins Diesel Motor (Ram Truck) it voids the 100,000 mile warranty if you use one.

 

 

I personally do not think it is worth the cost and larger particles entering the engine, IMO.

Can someone post results from dyno. runs with stock and K&N air filters? I'd like to see the difference.
