my vf39 seems to be leaking so im planning on upgrading soon. i've been debating between a green and a 8cm 20g but i found the blouch dominator 2.5r which is right there between the two and spools just as fast as a 20g. i'm just waiting on some reviews/dyno charts before i buy it. it will probably be sometime during the summer.
i've just been really busy with school, work, and my daughter. this is my last semester at school so now the sti will be getting a lot more attention than it has been lately.

To be truthful I think an 8cm fp green would be a great turbo for ur setup especially since that turbo has proven to be kick butt since i'm sure you have seen other peoples experience w/it on iwsti, But the 2.5r looks like a cool turbo I just never heard of it. So the question is...Is 1500+ worth it on a brand new type turbo that you don't know to much about. Or would you rather spend the money on a turbo that is already well known. If you do get that 2.5r i'm very curious how it would perfom. Be sure keep me posted. Oh and me and a few other subaru guys are going to sac raceway on the 23rd of may for my bday. Plus we gonna go to hooters after the track if you want to meet up with us at sac raceway ur more then welcome to join us.

i'm still waiting for some reviews before i buy the turbo but the main reasons im looking at it over the green is because its a ball bearing turbo that spools faster than a 20g and i'd still be able to run a tmic with it. i'd like to run the green but i havent seen it do very well with a tmic and the lag wouldnt be too good in autox.
as for the 23rd i'll be there. just give me a call.

Yesterday I installed some Kartboy Outrigger bushings and some whiteline rear diff lock bolts and i'm very pleased with the results. The back end of my car always felt loose when i was going around a hard turn and i used to blame it on the weak sidwalls of my toyo proxes 4's. A few days ago i ordered "unabomber's sexy rear end" from Turn In Concepts to maybe help get rid of some of the wheel hop issues i've been having. I havent gotten a chance to install my rear diff bushings since i let someone borrow my jack. It took about 30 minutes total to install the diff lock bolts and the outrigger bushings. There is definately a big difference. the rear end feel so much tighter and more planted and doesnt have that sliding feel. i would definately reccomend them to anyone looking for a cheap upgrade. $60 and 30 minutes was more than worth it.

I just picked up the Carbing strut bar and Prodrive oval tip axleback yesterday. The exhaust is really quiet but you can definately hear the boxer rumble. it was exactly what i was looking for.
The Carbing strut bar is probably one of the nicest looking strut bars i've seen. Really nice welds. Very lightweight. You can also feel the difference in the brake pedal because of the brake master cylinder stopper.
I'll get pics up tomorow.

i got a wrx front bumper and a new sti rear bumper. I was supposed to drop it off this coming sunday night so that it can get painted while im in vegas all week but the shop said that they were too busy and wont be done until saturday. the sti is my daily driver so its hard for me to go without a car for a week. im gonna steal one of my parents cars next time im in modesto so that so i can drop off the car and finally get it fixed.
