Yesterday I picked up an EJ20g ECU, code 6K, and a slanty. My turbo should be here next week. Still need igniter mod, 440 injectors and a Jecs MAF.

Got my td04 installed today and a lightweight flywheel. Going to fix the leaking gaskets while I have the engine out.

The 92 ls wagon I sold two years ago to a friend blew a heater core this week. So guess who gets to be the lucky one to change that... I have the dash pulled now, tomorrow I'm going to pull the rest of it apart and wait for the new core to come in.

Started removing the OEM BBS silver wheel paint in prep for new gold paint. This work is kinda shitty. Messy, hard, and tedious. But, my end results shall be tits.

I put my center console and rear door cards back on after attempting to clean everything up a bit. I also sprayed all my ground wires with electrical cleaning spray and my cel magically went away....

The MBC seems to have completely cured the little hesitation I had rolling on to full boost and WOT from 2500 rpms. I also had little stutters around 4000 rpms that are now gone, just nice smooth power delivery. It holds boost nicely all the way past 5500 rpms. The little VF11 does pretty good at 10 psi peak. Cant wait to get the Invidia catless bellmouth DP and a full 3" exhaust on it.

So my cel came back on and I brought it to a shop to read the codes. They told me the O2 sensor was throwing a code and that they could CHANGE BOTH MY O2 SENSORS FOR 600. I laughed so hard I almost peed my pants. Now I have owned my legacy since 2002 and I know for a fact there is only one O2 sensor running to the cat. I have an outback header and cat with the extra bung plugged up, maybe they saw two bungs and assumed there were two? Anyway a denso O2 sensor is like 50 bucks and it took me about 5 min last time I changed it. Some shops, wtf.

I'm surprised they were able to read the codes as most shops can't or don't know how to read OBD1 codes.

They're in transit :-)

Hint: They start with an S and end in peedline, and are anywhere between 4.5 and 5.5 spokes.

Need tires too. Should have them on in a few weeks :D :D :D

PS Thanks Silinc3r :-D
