    you'll have to excuse poor Carlton, to much argyle has clouded his judgement but there is hope for change after this last intervention...
     
  2. Lol. Indeed. More solids more so now. But as soon as fall season. Argyle it's on.
     
  3. Dom
    No time soon. My main goal right now is emissions. The dom is going to sit around for a bit before i do anything else
     
  4. Emissions = Passed, Retune = 393/344

  10. I still plan on getting a Dom 1.5 down the road. For now this will be sufficient.
     
  11. Uppipe gasket started leaking. Decided to go with a few new exhaust components. AMR UEL headers, AMR Pro cast uppipe, Grimmspeed x2 thicker gaskets.

    Whiteline front sway is sitting on the shelf to be installed once I piece together the rest of the suspension components.

    How are JIC Magic Coilovers? Anyone use them?
     
  12. Dom installed, Tune day is Tuesday. Night and day difference. Everyone was absolutely correct in regards to it blouch being one of the best turbo makers. untuned, just from home to gas station feels night and day different. Can't wait until tune day.

    Dude, you shouldnt be getting into boost if you just installed it and it hasnt been tuned for your new turbo.
     
  14. I'm not. I'm not going above 3k rpm at all. But even just at normal driving, it's completly different is what I was saying.
     
  15. Retune. Put down 414/364. Dom 2.5xtr

    Your 2.5xtr only put down 414 and 364? You are going to hate my 1.5xt-r numbers this month...

    That's all? I've seen 1.5 doms make the same but better tq.
     
  19. It made good power for me, kept my tranny from going boom. I'm sure more power could be made out of it. i'm very happy with it where it stands. next install will be 07 sti 6spd. at one point Doug had more tq. i'm actually glad he dropped the power down, while getting on it a little on 400, it def felt like the tranny was getting tired.

    who gives a flying fuck what numbers you can squeeze out of whatever turd bowl... he's driving his car is what matters.

    I think everyone wants to see the actual graph and not just the numbers.

    sway bars aren't too bad. I have read that some makes you can route the front through without having to drop the subframe piece. However, the eibach's i got, I had to drop the frame.

    needs to dump the subframe... and go with an Oswald

  38. That would be a sweet addition.
     
  39. i'm looking forward to that. everyone says that. can't wait to see.
     
  40. tomei el headers and uppipe on the way.

  42. Whenever i can get my hands on a good STi shell to swap my stuff from my WRX, i think i'll grab one of those sweet ass subframes. I can only imagine how much stiffer it would make things up front, just from the rear sway, even the 20mm spt one, made a huge difference over stock.

  48. EL header and uppipe is in. Was a son of a bitch to install to say the least. Really rounded things out. Spool is night and day different, butt dyno likes the added hp and tq. Few things to get repaired and dccdpro installed before retune. Made the exhaust note quieter going to take a little getting used to without the rumble.
     
  49. DCCDPro Installed. Can't really notice a difference.
