Tom is correct; SUS is for Sport Utility Sedan. It is a Legacy - with the Outback treatment. Including the limited-slip rear diff. Car is also raised (eight inches of ground clearance!), if you are going to take it on the track, you might want to lower it or replace suspension components with stock Legacy parts (which will lower it, right).
Btw, check my signature - The two non-SVX cars are SUSs.

Hey:
I recognize that snorkus. Either I wrapped the insulation around it myself, or the sincerest form of flattery has been offered in this intake tube. Either way, glad to have been able to make even a minimal contribution to this fine effort. This is a picture of it in its first incarnation, replaced by the fine Tomyx custom intake snorkus.

Yea Dan, due to the legacy airbox being located just slightly off of where the Stock SVX airbox is, it made a poor fit for the stock snorkus... So we hhad to use yours make it somewhat "adjustable"

That's awesome! If nothing more than to see yet another crazy plan come to fruition.
 So all this talk about it being fast... are you saying it's faster than the supercharged SVXes, 4.44's, and all the other goodies you got going on? What makes this thing so fast? Is something done to the engine? It's N/A right? It seems like every time the EG33 is dropped into another vehicle it is faster than the SVX, even back to the days of Smallcar installing them in Vanagons. Why?  Looking at the parking lot shots with the cars side by side, it's a crime if the SUS is faster than any of those SVXes. I know sleeper cars are cool, but it's still a crime. BTW, is this going to remain in full SUS trim and be utilized offroad?

Like I said, it is a privilege to make a contribution, however small, to this worthy endeavor. Dan

I'm looking forward to driving it as well. I will be doing the paperwork for it tomorrow hopefully. Tom, we will not be jumping the SUS. Just FYI. Look at how your last attempt landed!
