    you'll have to excuse poor Carlton, to much argyle has clouded his judgement but there is hope for change after this last intervention...

    I still plan on getting a Dom 1.5 down the road. For now this will be sufficient.

    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?

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
