Finished installing a oil pressure and AFR gauge. I had to get the O2 bung installed this morning.

I finally received my Anarchy Motive Atlas shift knob today. It took a bit over two months from order date. It also didn't have the engraving I requested, but I don't want to wait another two months.

It'll take some getting used to the size and texture, but the added weight does seem to help it get into gear more easily. The Transparent Red color is on point.

It was a pain getting the knob to align properly. I added some plumber's tape, so I'll see if that helps it stay put.

Not today, but last weekend I adjusted my tune to get rid of the 2-step (missed being able to rev it out when at a standstill, yeah I'm a child), and upped the idle point to 900rpm. The increased idle has made a pretty big difference and I am really happy with the change. Occasionally my car would drop idle and the DRLs would flash off and on. This also removed the "shudder" feeling the car has when at a standstill.

I also made some adjustments to my coils. Slowly starting to figure them out and dial them in. Not sure exactly what the settings are at currently, but they seem to be the best I've had so far for DD and some sporty driving without being too harsh.

I watched the install video the other day and I find it interesting how it just snaps right into place like it was designed to have one but Subaru decided not to install it after all. Keep us posted as to how it works. ($80 piece of plastic, I hope it works well!)

I don't track or autox, just got it as insurance being FI and being a regular mountain driver. But if I do decide to go back to the track, I'm ready.

Changed out the stock front pipe for a 1320 Performance Catless Dual Resonated Front pipe, sounds great with the Invidia Q300 catback. No drone, no rasp, really great deep rumble.

However, it sure is perty .....

I'm running the exact same set up on my car. It's a perfect compromise between sound, and performance. I love it, and so do my neighbors.
