Hmm, the girls must've enjoyed their little tussle in the grass. Every pic shows them smiling.

So Wingless Wonder, do you update your MPG in your locataion with every fill up? I enjoy being updated on your fuel economy.

Also, did you get an exhaust? It looked like it as you were driving away last night.

I update the fuel economy when there's a significant difference either up ()or down ().

I put that 3" Strömung catback on earlier this year. Contrary to what I've heard almost everywhere, the catback alone knocked about .15 off my ¼-mile E.T. It did seem to run a little lean after that, indicated by a loss of a couple of MPH trap speed. I paid for an off-the-shelf reflash that got most of that back and I ran slightly quicker as a result.

I'm a firm believer in 3" or larger exhaust for a turbo Suby. I think there are gains over a 2.5" exhaust with proper engine management. I'm sure I'd see a much bigger jump in power and spool-up time after a good 3" turboback install and tuning but I'm not sure how much more money I want to put into the car, plus I can still pass the visual during smog time the way it is now.

Of course, I put the i-Club stickers on my car around the same time so it might be the stickers!

I not only got better gas mileage, but I also got noticably more power when I put on my i-club stickers.

My car stayed clean longer between annual washings.
