This will be the first journal I've ever done on a car, I don't take a lot of pictures of my ride because I'd rather be driving

2/5/14 - The new APR Radiator Cooling Plate came in today, install was very simple!


2/6/14 - MAPerformance 3" exhaust installed




2/6/14 - FBM Radiator / Shroud / Oil Cooler Installed as well as dyno runs with the new exhaust.
Dyno results in for the change from 2.5" front pipe and 2.75" catback to 3" Front Pipe and 3" Resonated Catback @MAPerformance
Power band is smoother across the board along with torque and whp gains and increased spool through the whole band.
This is untuned as well so there is still more on the table to adjust for the exhaust changes.

Forgot dates, from now on I will just add pics :0
Picked up Advan RG-D 18x9.5 +40 and had them powder coated pearl white, also took the turbo out to a local small race track to finally test it out and it performed flawlessly.






Went back to the local track a second time and shaved more seconds off with each session. This is all still on the stock brakes which will change soon.
