You should really get a header if you plan on getting an OFT or Ecutek. Missing out on a lot of gains without one. Catless is the best.

I've finally kind of prioritized the various car bits I want to get done in the next year. I'm still looking for smaller items to add to the list so it's not all large purchases.

BRZ:
OFT or similar
Tint (low priority)
Sound deadening
New goddam tires
Replace the stupid blue LED footwell lights with red so it actually matches the rest of the interior
Install LED interior bulbs I have sitting around
Rexpeed Convex Mirrors
Something needs to be done with the audio setup - TBD
Not exactly staggering, but I also have an eye towards warranty...

My wife's VW Sportwagen TDI:
Stage 2 flash (+30hp & 70tq across the whole rev range!)
Tint (high priority, it's a fishbowl)
VCDS cable

May be able to help you out on the audio part.. deciding whether or not I'm going to sell my OEM+ system.

I've got an OpenPort on the way. They're quite a bit cheaper and can still datalog.

I ran e85 for a couple of months to try it out. Wasn't really worth it IMO. Fun, a bit faster, but nothing crazy.

The e85 on 183 at the valero is crap. Would not recommend. Not sure what the content is, but they have bad history of horrible winter blends.


The e85 on i35 at heb is much better. I have a neighbor that has a 800 HP evo that runs e85 from that HEB regularly. He says it has very good e content all year round. He drives there and fills up gallons of gas.

my biggest complaint about e85 is that you simply don't get as far on a tank. I don't care about MPGs, but you start filling up waaay more often.

e85 is more beneficial if you're boosted due to being able to advance timing more aggressively with it's natural cooling properties. I think anyone who daily drives their car won't find much use for it besides that little boost in power. This is why I stick to 93 octane from Shell and Chevron. No cheapo stations even though the Shell and Chevron I go to is lower than most places.

Not too worried, I don't drive far anyway. I think the Eric saw me the other day when I was picking up food for the Superb Owl, which was the first time I think any member on here has seen me not at a meet/parked.

Go to one of the dealers in the area and buy the 14mm bolt for the front strut. Using this in the 16mm hole will get you some camber adjustability in the front which made a world of difference in handling. When I just had the "crash bolts" as they are often referred to as, I was able to go from 0* camber to -1.2*. That is my $0.02, based off your list. Those bolts will run you about $12 after tax.

This is how I was able to achieve -2 camber in front on my KW V3's. Love those little crash bolts. They went in the top hole because it was slotted already.

Yea, picking up my bolts when my AC gets looked at tuesday. I have time off coming up so probably getting my paint corrected and may finally getting around to bushings, camber bolts etc installed.

Anybody want to meet up this evening? Maybe grab some jazz at the elephant room?
