so, i pick up my car from GST after getting some work done. i leave the shop with my car, happy as can be that my car is back to normal and what not...what happens? this;
either debris from the truck i was behind left his car, he ran over something, or whatever...either, regardless of which, my car got effed. and to top it off, the evil doers flee'd the scene. -1 for them.
here's where the +1 for GST comes into play....i call mike, jokingly tell him to cancel my tune because of what happened to my car. within minutes, derek walks over to my car, a good half a mile or so from the shop, along with other customers. he spends about 45 minutes to an hour of his own time to look for what hit my car as well as take pictures, as i don't have a camera in my car or on me. he took the pictures seen above and had sent it to me via email. how awesome is that?
anyway...back to it; +1 for GST for going the extra 100 miles and -1 for evil doers who flee the scene.

here's something to cheer people up;
i got my car back...it looks dope. i've had it for about a month now. here's how she sits;
and comparison of tunes;
first trip:
and second trip:
as you can see i'm making nearly the same as last time, but driving impressions are MUCH MUCH different. on the no name 16g, the car was very peaky and boost kicked in hard. you were literally kicked into the seat, some of the members here can attest to that as they had a couple of test drives and rides. the new tune and Blouch 16g feels much better around town, with boost being a real ease.
new on/in the car:
Blouch 16g
JDM V7 STi top mount intercooler
OEM colormatched hood with STi hoodscoop (possibly looking to go back to WRX scoop...)
more to come...
