grounding...
my intermittent causes the wiper to move a lil bit, stop, move a lil bit, stop, etc... but it takes forever for it to actually complete a whole up/down cycle. is this the same problem you had?

$150 GL-10 is running! and renewed faith in SEAFOAM!!
yeah, theres a light by the little car diagram on the IP that says 'turbo' after you start making boost. and the diff lock light will appear in the center of the car diagram, but sometimes it take a bit for it to engage. you have to be driving kinda slow, in a straight line.

Lights mounted on the bumper
use a holesaw (2"?) to drill up through the bottom of the bumper, and then a 1/2" hole i think to mount the lights. the metal plate under each light acts as a big washer. it provides support to the lights as the plastic skin over the bumper and the styrofoam under it isnt very good on its own.

any moded or tricked out old school subies
could you be a bit more specific? i looked at that website, and it seems like its another useless "search" site that coughs up cgi-made links.

Possible Intercooler Temperature Thermometer
i bet that would fit pretty good in the hole where the buttons for the trip computer thingy used to be! i should look into that...

Rising Rate Fuel Pressure Regulator
RRFPRs are kind of a bandaid. its used instead of upgrading your fuel pump and injectors, however i can kinda see the usefulness of it on our cars due to the lack of high flow injectors.

what the deal with ea82t pcv system?
i wanted to make a new intake pipe to replace the piece between the maf and the turbo inlet, but theres too many other hoses going into it! this pcv system looks overly complex. it looks like the pass. side vents in after the maf. the drivers side has hoses that go from the valve cover to before the TB, after the TB AND it looks like theres a hose coming from the tranny? all that before finally going into the intake tract. i know theres another small hose that goes into the intake tract, but im not sure what its for... anyway, is there a way i can simplify this mess while still keeping it somewhat legal for inspection?

Brat & XT6 CarbonFiber Hoods
i really like the idea of the ea82 hood with the scoop BUT all our intercooler jobs are custom. the hoodscoop might not necessarily be in most effective cooling position for each individuals needs.

Aftermarket Catalytic Converter

Fuel Cut Solution
"The way most ECU overboost protection works is by monitoring manifold pressure through a pressure sensor. When the readings go too high, the ECU stops pulsing the fuel injectors. On the Legacy Turbo, this happens when the ECU reads a pressure above approximately 28 psia for longer than approximately 3 seconds." since we dont have a factory MAP sensor, we'd be better off going with MS, right?

New tires on new rims.

K & N cone air filter installation?
if its a drop in filter, you just replace the existing one. if its a cone filter, youre going to have to remove the airbox and get a mass airflow sensor adapter so the cone has something to clamp on to.

Whats next?
custom fuel rails and injectors!
