No pics until the trinket arrives! I wasn't going to post on the other forum with what it is until it got here, but meh, why not. :lol:
I picked up a Braille B2015 Limited Edition STI carbon fiber battery... #008 of 500, and weighing it at 14.5 lbs.

I've read just a bit about your plan...seems like it'll be a pretty complicated project!!
I'm excited to check out this battery, but I'm interested to see how this thing handles the North Dakota winter. Odds are I'll be buying a battery tender before next winter. :lol:

I'm going to be looking into some kind of high-temp paint or thermal dispersant coating for my intercooler this week. My Braille carbon fiber battery has arrived. Pics soon.
In other news, rallycross on the 19th of February has been canceled, and there won't be any rallycross this year. The ice simply is not safe due to temperature fluctuation, we've had a few trucks go through the ice this year. I'm a little disappointed, but not nearly as upset as guys who've already purchased their studded tires.
Additionally, the BRSCCA held its annual pre-season meeting today in Minot, ND. Our region is doing quite well financially. We elected new officers, and yours truly will be the membership chairman for the next year. I'm also going to be the event director for an autocross in August, and there's talk of sending me, and one other, over to the Land o' Lakes Region for training as a rallycross safety steward (so we can possibly start having more regular rally-x events in our region). We have some interesting venues in the works for autocross events this year, and we'll see how they all pan out. I'm just happy we have an event set up for the day after my wedding in July.
More updates to come soon!!

Just ordered some wheels from Apex Performance!
Or as some mor-ans in our society who have bastardized the English language would call them...rims. Ugh.

I'm surprised you didn't call it a "whip." :lol:

Lighter than stock, and not Rotas. That's all I'm saying. I never get to do the asshole wheel-teaser thing, and I'll probably never get to do it again.

Oh, it's running alright. The turbo failure was a little sketchy, but Blouch got me taken care of. Now just getting ready for all kinds of installs before spring, and of course, reviewing that prototype design header I've got.
And as for real pictures...SOON. Waiting on some tuner lugs. :lol: Plus my car is dirty as sin.
