    They sponsor my car for RallyX! And i've been friends with Justin since i became a member here. They are really good with customer service and helping out! I've been there many many times and have witnessed their customer service while i was there. A++. Not sure about if you have a used product, but i'm sure they'd help ya! They also have great installation instructions and videos on their website.

    Mishimoto goodies came today. Godspeed turbo inlet should be here in a day or two, then I'll replace everything in one shot. Tax return is also coming soon, so there should be a few more goodies added this month. PROJECT RED ROCKET IS UNDERWAY! :D

    I knew it wouldn't! Haha. I will probably go with a simple "stage 2" power set up for now. Then save some money this year and do some suspension and stopping upgrades next winter.

    Frozen rotors and hawk HP+ pads are about the best stopping power investment you can make for the street

    I'll keep that in mind. Probably some SS hoses too. I also plan on goin with a slight drop, like an inch or less. And maybe some tower braces, and sways.

    Also ate super blue makes a big difference both in brake and clutch application

    Brake master cylinder brace is pretty good from what I hear. Haven't installed mine yet. =\

    Got the Godspeed inlet today. And honestly, I don't see a huge difference in quality from it, to the Mishimoto y-pipe I got. If anything, the inlet is stiffer than the y-pipe. Time for a few hours of wrenching. I'll let ya guys know how the install went when I'm done. Out to the frigid garage I go!

    why would a catch can need to be heated? Is there some function of catch cans that I am horribly, horribly misinformed about that would make the temperature of the can matter?

    I think it was brought up due to some ppl claiming issues of the lines condensating and freezing shut in the winter. :confused:

    It seems appropriate. The "old man" posted back in 1971! Lol

    My car just broke so hard it set me back 42 years. Which, coincidentally, is the answer to everything. FYI.
