Do we have a "death pool" for future blown motors?

If so I add @brznoob to it

If you say so. All was done by a master Subaru tech and consulted with a nitrous express engineer, but still the engine might blow up anyways lol.

On a 50 shot? I think he's fine. Especially with how pretty idiot proof nitrous systems are these days. Unless you're joking around.

Hah to be honest I don't know a lot about nitrous, it just seems risky on these untested motors.

Today I ran out of rumble strip, dropped my rear wheel into a hole off track and smashed my bump stop to smithereens.

Drove to Philly today for a mini-road trip. Pretty fun and the fact that she came out unscathed in all that driving and parking...i'm happy.

Turned some corn-fed hot laps in the advanced group with Just Track It. I never really got "in the zone" since I wasn't running my lap timer and I was just having fun giving rides to friends. Awesome way to spend a Friday nonetheless!

I'm well aware that it has no detriment to functionality. But on a brand new car it sounds like shit. So I had it replaced under warranty because I can. No more crickets.

On an island this small I would have to travel more than a 1/4 tank away to find the one gas station that's E0, and with prices hovering around $4/gallon it's not worth it to me. So if it starts happening again and reaches my annoyance threshold I'll get it replaced... again.

DIY clutch grab adjustment. Aside from horrible back pain and the sense of claustrophobia, I was surprised how easy it was. Had to play around with step 2 a few times to get the cruise control working again, but overall pretty easy free mod.

It will start happening again. You'll be getting the fuel pump replaced every month. Just how the high pressure pump is.

I honestly can't even hear the crickets without having my windows down so I'm not sure why it's such a big deal to people.

Ditched the Perrin rear swaybar for stock (I had it in there before to compensate for the huge staggered tires I had before, now with my 16's on 225's its not necessary) and my AVO turboworld diff bushings I won at 86fest!



The car feels SOOO much better without the swaybar, no more sudden death snap oversteer, I can just get on it in a corner and the car turns.

I think you quoted the wrong person haha. But on topic, I have this extension to help route the cable to the passenger side: [ame]http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EECXAY8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/ame]

Took me 18 days to get it from China.
