I think I have found my true calling in life - to be a WRC or SCCA Pro Rally co-driver/navigator. It's true that I have no experience reading or writing pace notes but my eerie GPS-like sense of where I am, ability to pinpoint my location anywhere in the world without instrumentation, an almost supernatural gift of dead reckoning at any given moment in time, would make me an invaluable asset to a top-running rally team. My only limitation is that it doesn't work while I'm driving.

Attn Mike Egan... Ban Suvs tells me I should take a look at the boost lines on your car, I'm trying to figure out the best way to get a vf34 under control with the stock ECU for now, and he said you've done something similar. Any pics? Could you PM me?

The car's at home and I won't be back until Friday. What exactly are you looking for? The tee setup at the turbo? Make sure you use your stock turbo lines with the VF34. Don't use the ones that came with the VF34.

If you want to come by my place Saturday, Dan and I will be working on my suspension from 11-3. Send me a PM.

I'll be at the meet next week, but I may not have the WRX if we don't get it all put back together in time.

Mike, did you figure out what pieces were damaged at Thunderhill?

Looks like I may have twisted the RH trailing arm. The bushing on that side looks more skewed than the other side. I'm not 100% sure though. Nothing else looks obvious. I'm going to have Dan take a look at it and compare to his stock setup.

I'm taking my Hotchkis lateral links out and putting the stockers back in for now. I'm also going to install camber bolts since I won't have the adjustable lateral links anymore. Hopefully once everything goes back together the tweak will be gone. We'll see... Alan and Lance have offered their stock trailing arms if I need to replace mine.

ok, we used the lines that came with the vf34... have you had a reflash or other engine management? which lines did you use then?

Always use the lines that were on the stock turbo. Your FBC and ECU are calibrated for that hosing. Even if you use a reflash or piggyback, you want the baseline to be accurate.
