HOLY CRAP! I got my downpipe plus stage 2 map loaded into the ECU and let me tell you....this puppy SCOOTS! I can keep up with a heavily mooded Turbo GL wagon (yeah same thing people turn into wheelers, just gone the other way with his) with a good driver behind the wheel. My front end bobbing under WOT makes me sad, along with the body roll. My car is a loud louder, but a lot faster, so it works.

Today I went out with said Turbo GL and a second gen RX-7 through all the backroads around here, we took about 3-4 hours today just driving since it was a nice day and my buddy had just bought new driving shoes and wanted to test how much better they are. I could keep up with them at 3/4 throttle while they were definatley at WOT. The motorcycle riders loved us (there are a lot where we drive) and we liked them.

Now I have to work on handling. I have decided to get upgrade tires and coilovers next. Looking to buy my coilovers this coming week. I just have to sell my dirtbike before I can buy new tires and wheels. But the car is coming along and it is becoming the car I saw in my head when I thought "nice Subaru".

Very happy right now, if you can not tell.  :thumbs: :disturbed: :blah:
