    This is an official WRXAtlanta meet. We're hosting an install day and you're more than welcome to join us!

    Date: Saturday, April 23rd! (1 week before Boxer Takeover!) (also, as this is completely outside, we're at the mercy of the weather.

    Time: 9am - 5pm. This is a hard deadline. No one will be around all evening waiting on you to get finished. So be prepared!

    Where:
    JPM Coachworks
    1600 Wilson Way SE #12, Smyrna, GA 30082
    Map!

    What we'll supply: lunch! For $5 per person, you'll have access to chips, burgers, hot dogs. If there's something special you require, feel free to bring it and we'll put it on the grill (provided it's a grillable item. There is no full kitchen here. Also, we'll have plenty of water and sodas.

    Some tools (air compressor, basic tools on a loan out basis, jack stands if need be).

    Wi-Fi! (for looking up tutorials on the parts you're installing. This is NOT for downloading the latest season of Game of Thrones!)

    What you will supply: your parts. Willingness to work on your own vehicle! This is not a day where you bring your parts and your vehicle and expect someone else to do all the work while you look around and mingle with other like minded individuals. So come ready to get dirty.

    Stipulations (VERY Important):
    Here are some guidelines to the install day. This is not for a full motor swap, or anything like that. Our gracious hosts have required that no fluids are to be changed at this event. This prevents spillage in addition to the unfortunate and quite possible "my car won't move" scenario. Also, they have requested no alcohol be present at this event. It's a fun event to learn about your vehicle more and how to work on your car. *Built not bought*


    Special Announcement! We'll have a special announcement during the day about future WRXAtlanta meets. Make sure you're there for this!

    Of all pro subie or top speed motor sports..
    Any recommendations? On while it's on my brain how much whp and wtq are you guys running on a 2015/16 wrx? Trying to get an idea of how much I get out
    Of my car without a full motor build up.

    Might swing by. If I could find an exhaust for the Fozzie it would be a great day for it.

    Sounds like a great opportunity to learn more by speaking with a professional tuner and possibly take advantage of the TopSpeed tuning sale http://wrxatlanta.com/forums/showthread.php?t=36703

    I should probably bring my blacked out headlights that I've been meaning to install. The wiring and stowing of the ballasts are my weak area.
