I will just enjoy driving my car until then.
I just want to do it since I have a one time use $500 gift certificate from Subaru and nothing to spend it on. The manifold is about $250 I believe, so if I need any additional parts, I would have to order them at the same time, since it's use it all or lose it. Plus, I already have all of their optional accessories that I'm interested in. If I have enough left over from the certificate, I was thinking of ordering the exhaust manifold too. I know there's way better ones aftermarket, but free money is free money.
