Well.... I am still underway. Its been a good trip. We got a drug bust last week.

Ill be home in about a week hopefully.

I filed my taxes already, getting back about $5800 back this year I think? Something like that.

Anyway, I might not be able to buy the property this spring so I might have a little money left over.

Thoughts for what I should upgrade on the WRX?

Don't worry fellas. I'll definitely let you know when I setup a tear down day. I've only taken off the hood, and pulled the battery and air box. I've cleaned the garage and put up another shelf for parts in anticipation of the tear down.

Rebuild your tranny and/or engine, replace ALL bushings, EJ207 swap, twin scroll conversion, 18g turbo......


Just a few ideas.

I would invest in doing a twin scroll conversion (which by nature requires a turbo upgrade). Performing this modification won't require a new tune; and, not only will it improve fuel economy, but you'll get more power from the same fuel map that's already being used. Science!

But then you lose some of the boxer rumble

I would love to but I was talking a few hundred dollars. I think Im gonna start with wheel bearings, clutch/flywheel, and finally get some gauges.

The heads aren't going anywhere since I've been too lazy to list them on ebay. Just shoot me a PM if you're ever interested.

So, folks, what are we doing in the way of meets? This thread has been pretty dead, and it seems like a while since I've seen everyone! Let's do something fun soon. My forester will be tuned for the downpipe, 3port ,and Tgv deletes by next weds so I'll be anxious to get out and drive!

Working tomorrow night: /
Normally I'd take the night off, but I've spent too much in the past week getting the fozy ready!

Technically, it would be Sunday for a first of the month drive, but because of the Super Bowl we can do a meet tomorrow evening and reschedule the drive.

How does that sound?
