So my wife has a horse show this weekend at the Chateaus Elan and we decided to go eat at PF Changs at the mall of georgia. While waiting out front some ricer drives by in an Crystal Grey 05 Sti reving his motor making BOV sounds. You sir are an idiot.... who puts a BOV on a bone stock car, then drives around the mall reving your car so you can make cool BOV noises like the fast and the furious. Do all of us a favor and run it into a tree. That is all
did it have a stock exhaust and silver wheels? cuz I know a guy with a PSM 04 w/silver wheels that's 100% stock except for a TXS RFL and hes a complete ricer.
I have one... But I have an excuse When doing my exhaust, I took the tmic and bypass valve off, and when i reinstalled the the bypass valve, one of the ears cracked and broke off. So my g/f(at the time) bought a ssq foy my birthday... Can't beat free. I'd really like to make it 100% recirc, but I'd have to do some ghetto engineering to make it work
Yeah, I had some nuts that were frozen on the back side of it, and I ended up having to break them and replace the studs.
why not? it only takes 30 seconds to take off/60 or less to reinstall, and makes ofr heatsheild/DP install much easier.
ah, got it. Ive never removed my IC and I didnt have a hard time getting at the bolts for the DP install. My cobb heatshield was a slight bitch to put on, perhaps I should have pulled the IC off for that. I'll keep that in mind when I take the td04 out : )
It wasn't me but I'm glad to know there is someone almost as cool as me out there. Stock + BOV = ftw.
as circumstance would have it, i bumped into this very guy coming home from my dad's last night by the MOG. we ended up at a red light and here's how the discussion went, i'll refer to him as BOV.... BOV: hey man, that's a beautiful car me: thanks, you're car's really clean too. what have to you done to it? BOV: totally stock with a blow of vavle me: (realizing who this guy is) you just got it? BOV: yeah about a month ago, but i'm looking to spend like 3-4 grand to replace the turbo, exhaust and stuff me: you'll spend more than that pretty easy, you'll need EM BOV: yeah, i'm looking to make some serious power, 600 or 700hp me: to the wheels? BOV: yeah... me: (trying not to laugh) not with that engine you're not. BOV: no? me: no. you're gonna need a fully built engine, so you might wanna think about 10-15k if you're going for those numbers... light turns greed, and i wave him on, and he blasts off-bov signing... he seemed pretty young, and a noob, so maybe he'll wise up. no, i didn't tell him to take the bov off... i wasn't sure i could do that without laughing.

If we have to, overnight some parts from Japan!
hahahahaha! I think I need to download The Fast and Furious now. Vin Diesel and Paul Walker... can't go wrong!
hey hey hey If one is gonna quote the cinematic gem that is "the fast and the furious" one must quote it correctly.... Vin does not make that quote; it's their geeky mechanic that drives the jetta... Jesse: [about the Supra] You know what? This will decimate all... after we put about fifteen grand or more under the hood. If we have to, overnight some parts from Japan.
And who wouldn't be? That movie changes my perspective on EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!! Truely ground-breaking and ahead of it's time!
