Just wanted to report cold starting in 42 degree weather this morning was easy as pie. Seems Ed figured out the problem and now that i've got to use the updated E85 map in the extremely cold weather this week i don't think i'll be going back to 91 anytime soon. It's really noticeable even in just daily driving not hitting boost situations how easily the car wants to rev up and go. I am praying for a station to open up some where near SF eventually so you all can enjoy

So....had an oil change today by Mann Engineering in Santa Clara. For oil I decided to use their advice and try some new oil other then the Motul 5W-40 I have been using for a while. We put in Torco SR-1 which on paper looks 100 times better with their special additives. We'll see how it holds up over the next 3k miles.
Also removed my Q300 cat back today. Very sad to uninstall it but as a few of you know I needed something that was a bit more quiet since I generally work early AM. Gave it a good clean for the new owner and then installed a stock 11+ WRX/STi cat back. I find it hilarious that my car barely makes any noise but is fast as hell.

I've heard really good things about South Bend Clutches for the 11+ WRX's so i gave them a go. Bought the daily version to preserve some years on my left leg lol.
South Bend Stage III Daily

The pressure plate is Race Engineered (SS) and SFI approved with significant load increase over stage 1 or 2 pressure plates (+600-800 lbs.). Expect a pedal effort increase of 20%-25%. A Performance Organic friction material with a high metal content increases torque and RPM capability and maintains low operating temperatures reducing wear and glazing. Recommended usages are daily, spirited street and occasional track.
