As far as getting parking arranged, I think that will depend on the location and how much parking they have available.



I got my rear diff crush washers from the dealer today. I am a little hesitant to post the part #'s as there seemed to be some confusion from the parts dept on just "which differential" they went to? That said, if they aren't the right thing I can reuse the old ones by flipping them over and I do not want to confuse anyone with wrong part #'s!
Don't flip them! One side has a lip on it that is meant to crush down, the other side was a bit harder and didn't seal well in my experience. Source: I made the mistake of flipping it and had a small leak I had to worry about for 3000 miles

That's unfortunate, I hope all works out for the best! Maybe we can coordinate something with @trevorovert, since he will have his headers to install soon!?

Updating the list, it looks like it will be me for 30 minutes and @Yellow13 for a couple hours. I'll be sure to call and cancel the second lift during my lunch break tomorrow.

Not exactly excited about doing street logs for remote tunes either. Plus a little competition is nice, and I like seeing what the two sides bring to the table, will cause a little more innovation.
Boost Logic here in Austin has an Ecutek master tuner named Junior. He's been tuning Subaru's for at least 15 years. He did Po's turbo FR-S tune on the dyno. I am considering him tuning me on the dyno. Dynotronics in New Braunfels has a master tuner too, and D3 performance in Houston. There's quite a few, they're all just not on the forums a lot.

Blah, why can't delicious tuning or drift office be down here would be a much easier choice

I will try to make it guys. Just had new carpet laid in my apartment so I had to move everything around in the place to make that happen. Almost like I was moving out but not.
