yeah man just do some research guarantee someone else has had the same problem.

yeah, it's been a ride, but can't mess around risking tickets (best case) or causing some real harm to my engine. so i'm happy.

Mud flap friday! i'll update photo bucket once i sanitize the other pics if they got my tags (tinfoil - ROFL) Overall, it was pretty straight forward, a couple of "monkey scratch head" moments and then i was rocking and rolling.

Made out good minus the price of gaskets. I like the Q300 and would have kept it if i had a second car. Rofl

got a ProTune today over @ Kaizen.

i learned a lot, which i already knew - ALWAYS, double check your work. i know this being a Senior NCO Medic and my first job in the Army was a Generator Mechanic. but you know how it goes... "I got dis" LOL.

they found a leak (i'm assuming it was the T adapter because i didn't secure it) near the BPV and another at the inlet. i know i've taking that intercooler off at least 6 times w/o even thinking to check my ish. moving on. made 249whp and 288 ft pounds (if i read it wrong, let me know).

Cobb SF intake + box, Cobb Downpipe. no other mods. peak boost is 19psi and tapering to off to (i'm assuming) 14ish (sound right?). i haven't taken any logs. which is funny because that's where i was at before this whole mess started with the off the shelf map. but no biggie. i needed a reason to get a dyno.






i am also hopefully going to wrastle the RA mud flaps this weekend.

Boost sounds about right. I'm tuning a '12 WRX hatch now. K&N intake (now stock), Invidia catless DP, CNT catback. It wouldnt hit below 19psi, it was mechanically creeping. Putting the stock airbox on calmed it down a lot. Boost is now set at 18.5 psi tapering to about 14. Boost is still giving me fits and starts in the midrange though, next thing I'm having him do is a boost leak test.

Also, did Bren or Rob do the tune?

I'd be willing to bet many doll hairs that it wasn't Bren.

I think it was Rob. I heard Bren was working out of there now too though. -2nd hand info though.
