Looking for a tune for the Subaru Legacy Touring Wagon 2.0gt spec.B '03. Specifically for rally. I tried searching, but didn't come up with much.

I am currently running:

engine rebuild.
500hp/362 lb/ft torque
1208kg
20 rear downforce
0 ballast (57/43 weight distribution)
All weight reductions
Chassis Reinforcement
ECU tuning, Stage 3 engine tune, 100% normal on power limiter
Sports Intake/Racing Air Filter
Sports Exhaust Manifold/Sports catalytic converter/Titanium Racing Exhaust
High RPM Turbo Kit (also have mid range kit for higher torque/lower hp)
fully customizable transmission (left at factory settings, top speed 162mph)
All Drivetrain mods (Diff set at 45/55, LSDs left at factory settings)


Racing Suspension @ following settings:

Ride Height: -6/-11
Spring Rate: 6.3/9.8
Dampers (ext): 6/6
Dampers (comp): 5/5
Anti-Roll bars: 5/5
Camber: 2.5/2.0
Toe Angle: -.12/+.20

I'm mainly looking for suggestions for the suspension and LSD. Any suggestions/points to existing threads would be greatly appreciated!

Im fairly sure Praiano tuned one of these recently so check his thread.

Different car I know but I tuned a Legacy recently the settings may be similiar.
 
Seems that the tune posted in the link above is NOT a very good rally tune.... (suspension and LSD).
 
You'll not find many rally tunes on here. Get that car up in the air and clear of the ground, use soft springs and reasonably hard dampers. Camber, toe and ARBs set as you feel comfortable with.

In the first instance, try flipping your springs and halving the values, then work up from there. Don't be afraid of an apparently wobbly car, for off road surfaces you'll need to be able to transfer weight back and forth easily. Have a look through the cars built for the Rally Shootout in this forum. Whilst nobody is running a car similar to yours, you should be able to see some of the principles that people have used. In the link in my sig, you'll find a Peugeot 206 S16 that I built for this event. The suspension is as described above...

Oh, and it seems cars react better with ABS off. As long as you can keep the engine revving.
