There is a stickie there.
Man I just finished up a long day of maintenance work.
-Greased end-links and front and rear bushings on the sway bars.
-Painted the hot side pipe.
-Wraped cold-side and removed old paint.
-Upper coolant tank delete.
-Cleaned up some plumbing in the engine bay.
-Brake check.
-Finally got the engine harness OFF THE ENGINE. LOL.

Thanks bud!
What's awesome is there are apparently no votes and no contenders for September STi of the Month, JJ and I are the only two votes and I am pretty sure mine doesn't count 
hahah.
In awesome news today, car was boost cutting at 5psi...I am scared. It's probably from fooling around with all of my hoses etc.

Today I had a fuel cut not a boost cut. I took some time after work and found that one of my fittings on my driver's side fuel rail was loose!! OMG. Now that that is resolved I continued to clean up the engine bay. Crankcase breather hoses that connect to the middle one were only 3/8????? No idea why that was installed like that on my behalf. It was probably when I had no idea what I was doing or no clue how the system worked. I changed them to proper emission hose in 5/8.
Sadly there was the dreaded milky substance in the breather hoses...I will have to keep an eye on it. I also cleaned up the top line of the AOS and made it fit properly without all the slack, still debating on if I should heat shield it or not?

Radiator Hose
Top radiator hose keeps collapsing?! W T F.
Since the top tank delete, I am wondering if the system is being sucked dry? The car isn't over heating or anything, but I am on sure if my overflow tank is too low or two high and it's messing with the vaccuum or something like that.:roll::roll:

That is strange. What hoses you have?
I understand that it was vaccum, but what I dont understand is that I burped the air out and waited until the T stat opened and there is even tons in the overflow for it to suck out. I might throw it back, we will see. Ive seen it deleted a ton of times, maybe I am missting something.
I think it is just because of the fact that my overflow can is lower than the radiator. I am going to set it up at the same height tomorrow. I am removing my windshield washer fluid tank tomorrow and that will give me some more room.
Just going to sway the lines with the IC sprayer!!

I don't have numbers to post just yet, but we road tuned the car today on 22 psi again, but since the hYdra was acting up, I will be contacting them tomorrow. Car's electrical system HATED it.
back to RomRaider at 22psi. CAR. RIPS. Going to try and get some dyno numbers this week.

I would be very interested to see your results.

Oh - and for the virtual dyno logs you want to log the following, at a minimum:
Engine Load
Manifold Relative Pressure (or absolute - but the direct variable - so the 4 or 2 byte parameters)
Engine Speed / RPMs
Wideband AF (not necessary, but preferable)
Throttle Plate position
and to be exactly accurate:
atmospheric pressure
intake temperature
You'll also need your exactly tire measurements, and what gear the pull was done in.

I think mine is a 76mm intake. I as going to get a megaMAF from KStech awhile ago, but never went with it. I mean, I do have a hYdra...lol so who cares
