Lol I never wear long sleeves but the way I lay when I take off the plug it drips all the way down to my armpit lol. I hate waiting so I drain it faster than normal instead of crackin it and letting it **** stream out lol.

My girls charger is worse.....5w20 stuff is like hot water lol

Premium? Just a heads up if interested, I've got the wheels turning at JPMcoachworks to create a few things, like a MFD hood covered in alcantara. Waiting for them to finish up on the first one so I can buy.

Real stiff and slightly bumpy but overall great purchase!

I'll have to skip on that offer,
because the first few things on my
shopping list once I have extra $ to burn is ...

light weight battery,
Cold Air Intake,
and Enkei RPF1.

Oem air filter cause I think the rubber surround is too big on the fram.

And picked up some grimmspeed intercooler gaskets and a bpv gasket.

Trying to eliminate all sources of the leaking sound at boost.

Good luck dude, I was lucky and found/fixed mine quickly. was a simple re-seating/adjusting of the TMIC and brackets, leak was at the TB to ic hose.

Yea ive never pulled my tmic but I heard the gaskets just go bad. I just replaced my downpipe with new gaskets so I know its not those anymore....the only things left to do are replace the tmic gaskets, bpv gasket, turbo inlet and check the y pipe hose/ tb hose.

I was gonna buy the grimmspeed y pipe and silicone hoses but it only fits sti tmics and grimmspeed units. Ill most likely wait to upgrade that when I buy my grimmspeed tmic.

Next I will be doing the grimmspeed p&p coated manifold with their up pipe so ill be doing all the gaskets from the manifold back to the turbo. I hope I get this crap sorted out fast lol. No boost or fun until thrn.
