What did you do to your subaru today?

Got the Greddy exhaust installed today thanks to my bud Allen. Sounds pretty cool. Nice finish for the Invidia down pipe and the Cosworth cold air intake.

 

Good looking exhaust!

 

put new speaker spacers in, hopefully will stop the door panel rattle.

 

Drained the gas tank last night because the wifey pumped a full tank of 87 octane. In her defense, it was $2 cheaper than pumping with premium.

 

I thought your new forester was a 5speed.

 

My sister told me this week that her boyfriend was trying to tell her that buying premium was all a hoax and that her bugeye didn't really need it. WTF

 

Sounds like she needs a new bf.

 

I don't remember telling you that. My wife is too short to utilize the clutch so I'll have an AT until she gets her own car.

 

Dude, I agree x3, or he just needs to get edjamcated

 

A lot of people put higher grade gas in their car when they can. Whenever I see it happen I just sigh and do my spiel about the volatility of gasoline that I've done 20 times in the past. Some people

 

Thanks to Matt and Ron at RS for my turbo and misc parts install and tune.

278whp/297tq with vf52 on pump

Maybe, just maybe E85 in the spring. Maybe

 

nice, we should run once. im stage 3 too..

 

I'm stage 3 also!

 

LOL

 

Me too! 4 way race!

 

Oh c'mon now, the kid will be 10 bus lengths+ behind...leave the kid alone

 

Ben your car is too fast, too much hp fast

Racing it at the Rock with us?

 

Ben doesn't race

 

His car is in Boss mode sitting on jackstands. No need to race. Already won

 

If sitting on jackstands is boss mode all my cars spend time in boss mode.....other then the silver one

 

Double post

 

Wow Ben, don't you think it is a little early for winter tires?

 

What's going on here? That post is 2 years old...

 

Time travel

 

got rear ended.

 

guessing about a grand. wrinkled the bumper skin, spider cracked the paint, few other chips and scuffs.

have the guy's info. sucks to be his wallet.

 

Last night, I put on new Centric Premium rotors and Stoptech pads. My new best friends are PB Blaster and a rubber mallet! There's something comforting about getting stubborn, rusted bolts off only to use anti-seize when putting them back on

 

Well it was yesterday but installed my BLOX 490g shift knob and re secured the middle section of the front lip to survive the I94 trip next week lol

 

Plastidip the fog light bezel black

 

Put 04' Sti struts with eibach springs in the leggy with 1/2" buttspacers.

 

Cleaned as much as I could over my lunch break. A good vacuum and some armor all in the front... didn't have time to make it to the rear seats.

 

Swapped out the IAC & a couple coilpacks, damn Nuke is good at trouble shooting! Also put in a short ram intake so I won't drink slush again this winter...a bunch of stuff didn't appreciate that last year. Nuke dialed in the new MAF housing and we did some pulls. Maxing the stock pressure sensor w/the deadbolt 20G on E85.

Runs great! Looking forward to a colder day so I can get a virtual dyno for you guys...

 

Putting my new-to-me Cobb catted DP on tonight

 

what a day!

just finish Julians car at the MOA's parking lot lol...
Upper turbo coolant hose from turbo to upper coolant reservoir had a rip.
Got a new hose and redid his coolant

Now he's good to go

 

He must be taking hints from Ryan...

 

Who is taking hints from me? Better point them the right way ben cuz no intelligent person takes hints from me...when it comes to subarus

 

Best hint of all. Pink intercooler piping is faster

 

Defi boost gauge

 

Took the ambers out of the headlights and gave them a good buffing.

 

Got my rotors machined and put them back on. No more grinding noise when turning corners. Much love to MNSubaru for helping me find the problem.

 

Ordered a 13 Silver Sti hatch with nav,

 

Butthead...

 

I know ;-) Lmao
