I'm actually off of Marshall between E. David and Stroop. Right near Harrigan's. I'd like to meet up as well and get a ride in your car. I'll let you know.

When it gets a little warmer out, we should pick a place to all meet up some afternoon.

Hey there Dayton folks!! there's a whole bunch of us down here in cincy that are fairly active. Perhaps we should all get together some time.

I'm in Cleveland, and I wouldn't mind tagging along for a meet-and-greet with you Daytona and Cincinnati folks. Let me know if there is room for one more. Or, if Cleveland is a good central location, I could see if I can arange a Northern Ohio thang around here. I'm down.

Looks good. As you said, the camera is a little rough, but other than that I liked it. The best part was when the dude dropped the camera

word.. my sentiments exactly

Since it was a nice day I decided to install the exhaust. It ended up being a considerably bigger job than expected. One of the nuts that was on a bottom turbo-stud must have been cross-threaded from the factory. So the tip of the stud twisted off with the nut. Luckily, there were enough threads left to get the nut on. So we didn't have to drill it out of which I think we would of had to take the turbo off to do.

Also, I guess I ended up with one of the first-batch Stromung dowpipes that just barely hit the firewall. I tried to pound on the firewall some, but there just wasn't enough room to swing the hammer. So I had to pound on the wastegate tube a bit to flatten it out some so it wouldn't vibrate against the firewall. I could have sent it back to Stromung for a new one, I just didn't want to wait since it was apart in my buddies garage. Then a gasket wasn't quite right between the 3rd cat eliminator and mid-pipe so I have a bit of an exhaust leak. I think AutoZone should have a similar gasket I can swap in. It was also a nightmare getting the intercooler back in. I think it was partly due to the cold weather. So overall it ended up taking us about 6 hours all total. We were freezing our asses off once it was dark.

My impression thus far is that it is LOUD!!!! It sounds mean as hell. It also feels considerably faster, although I didn't get to test it out at higher speeds. I'll check it out tomorrow.

Sounds cool! I'd like to hear it sometime. What are you guys all up to this next week? Let's plan a weeknight to get together and go for a short cruise! Who's up for it?

[Snowvert]

good stuff. I definatly would like to check it out. I'm down for a cruise, but won't have my car that much longer. next week works, though.


p.s. hijack, someone buy my parts! if any of you locals need something, I can lower the price some ._.

[tubbytreats]

What parts are you selling? I hadn't seen a list of anything yet...

[integratowrx]

I'm up for a cruise some night this week also. We could get some food or somethin. I don't have to work tomorrow since it's President's Day, so I'm open tomorrow night or pretty much any night this week.

I want some of your parts Snowvert, but I don't think me or my wallet are up for turbo/fmic upgrades for a while.

p.s. when are you getting the STi?
