    Default Back in the shop

    Well, the X is back at Hills. The car was sputtering a bit along with slow start-ups. Also, Onefiftyone screwed up hooking up my alarm. The alarm is tied into the air bag fuse for power. I guess this is what happens when you don't pull up a diagram first. Anyways, I'm getting a custom hi-flow cat back made along with some other goodies and another dyno tune.

    I can't wait ;-) I told hill don't call me until the car is running at 100%.

    Jay I couldn't agree with you more bro.

    Your not the only one. But, I'm confident this will be the last time for a long time my car will be going in for mild trouble. The good thing out of this is my gauges will be up and hi flow installed.

    You'll have it back soon hopefully, if not atleast before i get mine back!! That is a plus, but all this trouble the car is giving you seems to keep me away from turbo cars...i hear that in order to have one and keep it maintained you gotta know alot about them (which i dont).

    That makes two of us. I will buy 1 major mod for every 6 months or so and enjoy each part fully

    And for each of those parts make sure you get a dyno tune ;-)

    Soon, soon. I'm in no rush. I have a few more parts that arrived today that I need to rush to Hills shop. With all the bad weather I may end up taking the parts over to his shop next week. The car runs great though. A few days ago Tony and I were out chilling and some guy in a WRX hatchback wanted to race. Tony was like "Why in the hell does he want to race you, no point" - You guys know me, I went ahead and threw some carbon in the guys face. Also, the guy was in a stock WRX so it wasn't a fun race at all. I guess he wanted to test the X???

    After the race I looked out of my rear view and I noticed he was clapping his hands. applauding the beating he received. No idea why anyone in a stock WRX would want to do that....

    that's b3yond me like PS3.
