Haha, yeah that's mine. I just got the Fortune Auto 500 coil overs put in. It was a pain to get everything set, but I am very happy with the way it handles bumps now. I also swapped to a smaller water meth nozzle to pick my AFR's up a bit. I was using a lot of meth and running somewhat rich up...

Hey guys, a friend of mine is selling this 02 Bugeye hatch for cheap. The only reason he's selling it is because he wants to buy my wife's 07 WRX. I know he's done a lot of work to it recently. Anyways, the ad is here: http://maine.craigslist.org/cto/4479077284.html I'm just trying to get...

I think Grimmspeed still sells WRB spray. I know we bought the cherry blossom red for some stuff on my wifes car and the match was spot on. 

Maybe I can just leave the stock tank in there drain it, and fill it with expanding foam to kill the noise. I'll "hide" the new one in the trunk someplace. I went to fuel up yesterday and there was a handful of dirt, or maybe rust at the top of the fill tube, like a solid clump. I have no idea...

The Blouch 20G XTR is in. Some things I found out about my STi...  1. It already had a 16G 2. It already had a Walboro 255 3. There's no way it could have been tuned when I bought it. There was so much room for improvement, even being conservative.  This does explain a lot though, I was very...

I went with AUS injectors. On further inspection, one had some debris stuck in the filter basket, was actually the filter material and another had a cracked tip. I think I'm going with DW next go round. It'll cost more, but people have been getting better results with them.  I also may just go...

I came to the conclusion that I received a bad injector. After several more reflashes, I started getting a wide range of CEL's that weren't directly related to fueling. Rather than keep messing with it, I put the stock ones back in. I tried a bunch of different scaling techniques with the before...

I just got a set of AUS 1000cc injectors for my 06 STi. I put them in along with a 300LPH fuel pump. I'm running into an issue after putting the scaling and latency into my map via tactrix/romraider. My idle is coming up at 10.0-10.8 AFR, AF correction is -50%. does anyone out there know enough...

Yeah it is. My VF39 is going on the wife's WRX, her old turbo may find its way onto my RS.

The 20GXTR I bought is a 48LB/min billet compressor wheel, ball bearing garret cartridge, 8cm td06 housing. The VF39's flow anywhere from 33-36 LB/min. I wanted something that would spool fast and not have to work so hard to hit target boost. Right now I'm doing it with stock injectors and fuel...

Change of plans number 786326754. The super VF39 I wanted is on back order and they aren't sure when more will be in. I canceled the order, got my refund, and was looking at an 18G XT-R. I didn't get it because if something is going to cost me over $1000 I want to be sure I'm getting exactly...

Update  I just ordered a new turbo for my STi. This made me realize that I have enough parts just kicking around to slap a turbo onto the RS when I get a chance. Pretty excited about that. Anyone on here run any boost to a stock 2.5RS with less than catastrophic results? The plan is to set it...

There's a three week lead time on the Fortune Auto 500's right now and I'll be away all next week for training. Looking like doing some install work the weekend of the 17th providing my wife doesn't Bogart my parts (She's got an 07 WRX).

Admins, please close this thread. Vehicle has been sold.

Update, got an email from Fortune Auto, they are assembling my coilovers. 8k springs in the front, 6k in the rear. 50mm tubes, 30 levels of dampening, yada yada yada. I like them already because they have a 1 year warranty on all wearable parts, and 5 year on the shock body and top hat - and get...

Yeah, a lot of my tuning was done in the Winter, that plug is a huge PITA when your hands are cold. After about the 10th time, I decided to grab a spare fog light switch and slap it in. It took less time to put the switch in than just once trying to unplug it in the freezing cold.  

Thanks, I do what I can... I can't wait for the bigger projects to start. 

Here's some pics of what I've done with it so far. This is the gold tape I spoke of. The Grimmspeed pulley. Modifications to the hood scoop. Added fins inside to help direct airflow to the far side of the intercooler and added a water sprayer tot he existing heat system. Here you can...

So here's some pics of when I first got it.

That's the idea. I wanted to keep the stock look. It really catches people off guard with how quick it is, even after looking under the hood. The only thing that looks not stock is the heat shield and the gold tape. Everything else is pretty well hidden. The new turbo should boost 20 psi no...
