Let my front BOV VTA.  Still working on the back one.  I just pulled the hose off the BOV, stuffed a 1/2" PVC cap in the end of the hose and put the clamp back over it to seal the intake side.  Tomorrow I want to try to get the other one done and drill a 2" hole in the air box to see what that does for turbo sound.  I miss the sound effects from my WRX.

I considered drilling the hole in my airbox until I drove my SHO with no intake on just to hear the sound, and I wasn't too impressed so I figured I'd pass on that since if could only hurt performance letting in warmer underhood temps. Even with no intake on the sounds wasn't that audible. Not sure what the hole would do for added sound ?? Seems like the K&N Typhoon guys says it's loud but I don't see how that cold be louder than no intake ???

Nothing fancy. Just a wash before going back into the garage.


Going to have to put in a request the 3bar v8 finally this evening. I've had a 3 bar MAPS for a month now, just sitting in the garage. :D

Couple more pics in better light of red plasti dipped taillight surrounds and badges. 
Updated pics, for some reason my phone pic settings were on transfer processing.



nice ! did you remove the emblems to plasti dip them or tape them off or what !? I  have thought about doing the face of my emblems black with the sides / insides still chrome. Maybe too difficult to do that ??

Tune updated for downpipes, Storm?

LMS says I don't need any. They said only thing they do is change something so CEL doesn't come on. I'm putting catted PPE on. Told me to see if I get CEL and let them know.

Not sure why people think there is a specific tune for DPs. LMS seems to say there isn't one.

Only need for an updated tune is if original tune was with OEM Downpipes and you then went to offroad no cat down pipes .

For non-catted downpipes the LMS tune turns off the last O2 sensor.... In the DP... This prevents the code.  LMS does have a tune mod for catted DPs.... I'm running it without DTCs or CELs.

Got her all cleaned up today. Last week was the first time using Adams VRT on the tires. Put two more coats on today and put it on the plastic along the bottom of the car.  Just to see how good it is I put a coat of Adams paint polish, buttery wax and brilliant glaze on the hood. I'll do the rest of the car as I get the time.
