    Loud. It's not loud to me. Just people sleeping while I warm up a bit before work at 5am haha. I actually would like to add a high quality, high flow cat to my downpipe at some point. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    My exhaust has one resonator. Think I might need a less free flowing or a second muffler. :/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The CEL for my speed sensor wasn't turning itself off so I reset my ECU this morning to see if it would stay off. It did! I actually feel like I'm getting somewhere with this POS now. Next up, try and scrounge my pennies together for an SXE 257. Also adding another thing to my list. The cold...

    Anything specific? Exterior is pretty low key. Engine bay is a mess but it works. First order of business when I finish school in the spring is tidy up the engine bay. Then probably move on to a fresh bumper that doesn't look like it's falling off all the time haha. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Drove to work this morning for the first time without having a GPS app open on my phone sitting in front of my cluster. Worked great and didn't wig out once. Also my outside temp gauge started working randomly at the same time the speedo did. It doesn't show up until after a bit of driving, and...

    Was driving to work this morning and speedo worked great the whole way, except when I lightly applied the breaks as I approached work. Speedo wigged out between 30kph-130kph. It rained all weekend so I'm thinking the wet roads, plus I just did a shitty job wiring, and the ABS kicking in a little...

    Sorry mang. This weekend was pretty crazy. I didn't even know when or how long I would have to work on it at any given time until I was heading out to the garage. I was going to call Juan too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I got the front axles used with all four spindles and Brembos so I'm guessing they were removed at one point or another for some odd reason. I actually didn't even think to weigh the two for a difference. The new ones may be slightly lighter but if so it isn't by much. If you notice the new...

    Finally replaced the axles! Here is the old next to the new. The bad one had gotten so bad I actually jacked up the car to see if the axle was still once piece after school one night. It sounded absolutely atrocious. Pics! Notice one major difference between the two... no ABS tone ring on...

    Bought it used from a garage princess but it was on NASTICOC so who knows how honest the seller was. I'm already figuring out when I can order the S257 SX-E. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yeah I have yet to see any smoke. Have you ever witnessed bad turbo oil seals that haven't smoked? I suppose I should also remove my intake and/or some intercooler piping to see if any oil is coming in from the compressor side as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Oh and to add to the list: -No noticeable fresh oil residue underneath the car -Never has left even a drop of oil on the ground after being parked anywhere Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    So before I go balls out and order a new turbo, I'd like some opinions. So I've had heavy oil consumption (4-5qts in just under 3k miles IIRC), but: -My catch cans are bone dry -I have one catch can for the crank case, another for the heads -I have them hooked up properly per the manufacturer's...

    Axles ordered! Estimated delivery date is next Tuesday. If that's the case they won't be installed until next weekend. Excited to check these out! I'll have Doppelganger come over and take pics/drink beer of the install. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sounds good. I'm going to order them today so they hopefully make it and can be installed by the weekend. Just got a Ninkasi mixed IPA 12 pack. :tup: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sooooo it is making noise. I don't know if it was the cold, rain, or I was actually able to discern it from all the other "regular" noises my car makes, but good lord that thing is toast haha. Going to order those Insane Shafts and give them a shot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Might be willing to sell you my converter harness for cheap. I'm probably going to get the FlexFuel setup from them and I'd like to get the harness that plugs into the MAF plug on one side, and has separate pigtails one for the IAT sensor, the other using the MAF signal wires as the input from...

    Only about 30k IIRC. My only concern is that I don't know how long I've been driving with a torn boot. Max 3k miles. But by torn I mean completely ripped into two pieces in the crevice of the accordion looking part. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
