Are you doing the TGV deletes yourself or did you buy the part with it deleted? I was thinking about doing this but ill probably do it when I upgrade my internals.

Anyone know a good auto shop that can do a coolant flush, with subaru stuff?

I checked fluids to see that give got a brown film on reservoir tank. It just happened these past few days, and I've been running A/C on full. My vehicle hasn't overheated or has my temp guage gone up...( if its actually working or not, idk) but my quarter panel and hood was warmer than normal, but was in sun most of the day. So damn.

When would you need one?
My father-in-law has a few, but I think he planed on letting my brother in law use them to move this week.

Ordered my Blouch 18gxt turbo coated with a 10cm turbine housing, DW 1000cc fuel injectors and Grimmspeed Electronic boost controller!!!! Just under 2k for all of it. And it looks like I might have enough for a 91 and E-85 map. BOOOOOOOOOST FTW!!! Cant wait to bring it down to the valley and play

P.S. My stock Vf48 turbo and stock 550cc injectors will be for sale in the near future. Just FYI.
