As always Josh, the quality of your work is second to none.

Have you driven it yet?

That reminds me, what'dya end up using for an inline PCV filter?

amazing!
if you ever want to come to kelowna and work on my car feal 100% free to! haha

Thanks guys! It's been a pain with lots of swearing

Yeah I've driven it around the block, and to get gas, but really haven't "driven it" "driven it". I'll be out of town this week, and am planning to drive it to the airport, so I'll get to put some miles on it this week, and probably will drive around next weekend.

From the initial drives, the power feels about the same with about 2 psi less boost, but it does feel like it pulls better at the top end. There is a touch more turbo lag, but it's really not too bad. I'll need to drive it some more to get a good feel.

I bought a lawnmower air filter, and cut out pieces to put in the tube.

Did you see these pics?

We'll see how they work out after some driving.

If you want to fly me up, I'll see what I can do

haha i wounder what would be cheaper flying you up or getting a buddy of the subaru shop here to do my tranny swap (hes going to do it for 500cdn)

haha.....yeah, don't know what airfare would be.

Hey Josh, another thing I noticed... Where did your air horns go?

They used to be mounted up right by your igniter right? No doubt they had to be moved for the AWIC.

If you mentioned this already, call me a n00b and tell me to search

Nice work! bodywise you have my dream setup. pre-facelift SS with GT rims... Mmmmm. The new intercooler looks like it was born there!

Did I mention I want your shop?

Hey! Whats up with the Tailpipe extension? You didnt get one of those Turbo tail pipe whistle thingies did you?

Its aaalll about the Wooooo Woooo!

ive been out of the boards for a while.. josh whats that thing attached to the end of your muffler exhaust???

man, i remember years ago over on USMB when this thing was a boring old FWD 4eat.

that thing sure has come a long way!

we played sir, well played.

They're sitting on my workbench right now. I need to find a place to mount them.....I've run out of easily fitting room.

Thanks for all the comments guys!

haha....the coffee cup mug....I was going to see if I could use that mug for the intake.....it didn't fit, and I believe that was the day I was really pissed off, and nothing was fitting right, so I was screwing around with the mug. It just fit so well.

Dude. That is one sexy engine bay. My compliments.

The car looks great and your documentation trail looks great as well. Not sure what you do for work but if you ever wanted a job in rhode island I could get you one as the technical writer and documentation manager at my company

Nice attention to detail. Such as this: http://www.main.experiencetherave.com:8 ... P_6917.JPG

Thanks for the comments guys! I appreciate them.

I really haven't done much to the car recently. I've been in a rut because it needs engine management before I can really do anything else.

Thanks for the job offer Mike I'm an mech engineer.

Yeah.....Out of my grad class....there's only a handful that I'd want to work with.....and yes, I too have worked with some that don't know squat.

I'd rather work with someone that has real-world experience & common sense then some book smart nerd that doesn't know his head from a hole in the ground.
