Carbonado sounds suspiciously like Canyonero...

Lol
I can asure you it has nothing to do with that :p
It actually stands for "black diamond", one of the strongest diamonds out there, a mixture of graphite, diamond and carbon (my car is black & i'd like to go for a black & carbon fiber theme, SO: Carbonado it became)

So yeah, it is what it is

WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR FRS TODAY?

Installed (or will be installing once I get home from the gym) a Subaru trunk carpet kit, Grimmspeed STB and MCB, Mishimoto intake pipe and aFe Pro Dry S panel filter.

My MiniVCI cable showed up as well so may play with that too.

Just waiting on my OFT now.

Had a young kid pull up next to me at a red light today ina REALLY sharp VW Golf(???) 1.8T. Look at me, look over my car and promptly say "JESUS that's gorgeous!!" Lol.
I said thank you much. He then asked "is it fast? It looks fast!"
I said "no. But we can find out"
He said "sweet".
Green light, WOT, and he started slowly pulling on me around 3rd. After 1/4 mile-ish he was 1 1/2-2 car lengths up on me.
Not feeling too bad about that.

Have you been able to drive her much since the install?

I found an immediately noticeable improvement in feedback and handling after installing each of the STB and MCB. Grimmspeed makes a great product.

What are your thoughts on the Perrin crank pulley on an AT (most of the time I only see people with manuals talking about it)?
