So, I learned a very valuable lesson today... make sure your air filter is completely dry before putting it back in the box.
I thought mine was good enough because it was slightly damp. NOPE! Very bad mistake.. 5 seconds into startup, car stuttered and completely died. Opened the box back up, it was all foamy. I'm not car technical but I think the maf detected there was something wrong and turned off the engine so it wouldn't get fucked. Removed the filter and cel was thrown, cleared it by disconnecting battery. In other news, not running a filter makes the engine super growly. |

So what is the potential for WTQ on our stock block N/A and at what cost? I'm probably going to go FI but just curious...

Far less than FI. Not a while lot you can do NA. E85, exhaust, intake manifold maybe, stroke it(but then you are essentially building it so the block isn't stock then). I'm very happy with how Subaru did but modifying it is kinda disappointing because you can't gain much ground without a turbo/sc

The Phantom SC would be a decent in between for $/performance but it you have$5k sitting around you might as well get the real deal

Unless you get something like the nameless which might get in the way, a supercharger probably works fine with most easy NA mods aside from intake...

If only there was a place that such information could be found. Guess that would be a dream world though.

In fact, I just got back home from getting fuel and going through the 12 dollar touch less wash. Feels good man. |

On the other hand, I don't feel like doing work either because it's SO NICE OUT. Stupid global warming and stuff. Maybe time for a drive. |
