    Hello Everyone!

    My name is Jack. I have recently moved to Glenwood Park from Southern Illinois for a job with a fitness company that owns/operates Snap Fitness gyms. I'm an admin and special projects team member. My girlfriend and I moved in only about a week ago, and I'd like to meet some new people to hang out with, especially since I don't know anyone in the area. I have a white '11 STi hatch that I'm trying to keep mostly stock. My civic, which is still in Illinois, has been an absolute money pit, and i think it will be nice to have an actual OEM+ car this time around. The car looks completely stock, with flaps and 20mm spacers. It is stg2 with a cobb airbox, catless downpipe, 3-port boost solenoid and a custom single exit exhaust made by Level 7 Motorsports, which is my friends shop in Southern Illinois. My civic was a booth car for his shop at IA Summer Meet 2011. The STi was tuned by Junior at P&L motorsports in Chicago. The car made 330whp/380wtq on their dynojet just a couple weekends ago. I thought 200whp in my EK was fun, but i was mistaken. I look forward to getting to know some of you, and hopefully joining you in some of your upcoming get togethers. Thanks for the warm welcome!

    Thanks everyone. Ill try to make the g2g on the 16th. I'll be that one guy that shows up alone and doesn't know anyone, all creepy weirdo style. My PC, which is still in IL, has all of my car pictures on it and i don't have a photobucket, so this one of my EK off of my facebook will have to do for now. I'd also be down to lend a hand and drink some beers on an install day if that kind of thing happens from time to time. I'm not really forum savvy so i often overlook those sort of things. I'm in Glenwood Park if anyone is close by.

    Welcome, neighbor. I'm just a ways east on Glenwood, near the golf course. I'm sure I'll see you around.
