Turn in concepts.

Don't fix it if it ain't broke. The pistons are glass yes. But your on stock everything right? When stuff goes wrong people are usually trying to put down huge numbers. And having their Grandma tune it.

Bigger turbo safe tune and your set.

Hey guys, my order finally came in and I picked my car up last week. Anyone know a tint place in GR that would also do tail light overlays if I brought them in?

Yeah, but I figure if I'm getting tint done then I can just have them do those too.

I think Darius does tint really well. Look at an earlier post for his contact info.

What'd you get? Congrats by the way, and let me know who you go through for tint because my car needs it as well.

Same. I'm thinking either Darius or this KB Customs seems to do good tint. They have an FB page showing a bunch of his work.

I got a base hatch in wrb, with short throw, fogs, arm rest extension, homelink, bumper cover, and body side moldings. Went all the way to Skokie, IL to get it because Delta was $1,500 off their price and wouldn't budge. Been a blast so far, up to just over 500 miles....felt a little slower last night though, like the boost was coming on different, probably just in my head. I still have to get the overlays from bluebat, but just want to find a place to have the work done.
Have to decide which to get....my wife likes no overlays, but if she has to choose then it's this style...



I originally liked this below...but am on the fence now

I'm sure it's his shop, lol.

Karpe, I prefer the lower one. The upper one is just too red.

I agree with Travisty on the Tail Light overlays. The bottom picture looks nicer and would be my choice if I had a GR.

I think it is more of a get it over with no so there is no worry in the future. Me and my dad have different power goals but we both seem to agree that it would be better to rebuild before it brakes. Plus my dad has a plan for the old shortblock (Sabaru Power) <sti shortblock with 2.0 heads and the vf48 may be what that little 4eat needs...

Anyone want this exhaust? It's coming from the owner of TiAL. He says brand is unknown, but it's a full stainless setup. I'm taking a different header he has, so thus one well just end up staying in his shop. Price is unknown as of yet. Let me know if there is any interest though.

I've seen him around GR a couple times. His plate says "Matt M" its a black 3 series with a twin turbo badge. I was following him on 96 to 131 south. He got on it a couple times and I had no problem keeping up. I was expecting more if it really is a tt.
