Some of you allready know that i jumped ship and went to a Subaru.Theres still a place left inside for an F-body but right now i really like my WRX.Right now it has a off brand 3inch Turbo Back catless Exhaust.Fijita Air Intake.Its dropped on Tein springs.I have a Cobb Acess Port v2 coming in hopefully this coming week.My plans are to get the stock air box and a catted down pipe and run the Cobb stage 2 basemap.Id also like to upgrade the sway bars.

Its currently sitting on 16" steelies and cheap snow tires.

Right now im having an issue.Apparently i have a missfire in cylinder 1 and its running lean.so im gonna go back to stock for a short period of time and if its still missing im gonna have them do a compression test.For the cobb Stage II your only supposed to have a Turbo back exhaust that has a cat.I guess you can run into issues of boost spiking if your exhaust is catless.Stage 2 should put me at about STI numbers.It still has the factory warrenty so i dont want to go nuts on it because subaru only tolerates so much.  
Edit: thanks everyone i like the color 2.it looks its best at night IMO

well cobb would prefer me to have a catted downpipe and stock air box.im buying the stock airbox off of the original owner tomorrow and hopefully be running on stage II tomorrow night.Stage II is supposed to bump me up 50-60 more horse which takes me from 11.5psi to about 16psi.The thing i gotta watch out for since i have a offroad pipe is boost creep.So thankfully i have that boost gauge so i can keep an eye on it and if it starts to creep to like 18psi ill back out of it.

Well on my way to work this morning i got hit in the quarter panel and almost got spun around.If any of you are familar with Monroeville i was on Logans Ferry which turns into Route 48/Haymaker Road right after Jobe Funeral Home.Well i crossed over center road and started up that steep hill.At the left is i guess u could call a ramp but its part of the hill side has a stop sign and i had right of way.well anys as i was crossing over Center Road there was a guy on a pedal bike that left the stop sign with a car but fell behind so i slowed down and as i came over the hill i made sure i gave him enough room well all the sudden coming from the stop sign is some sort of newer style Jeep SUV and its headlights are pointed in my drivers rear door window then next thing i no my ass end is hanging out and i got the wheel completely cut to my right and i keep my WRX in my lane.I yank the E-brake and imediately jump out the car incase the driver decided to flee but luckly she was 20ft back behind me with her 4 ways on.It was 6:45-6:55 in the morning so it was dark.Her SUV seemed ok but i couldnt tell.She hit me high so it appears to be just body panel damage but i had hte cops come and she straight up told him that she hit me and wasnt paying attention.I guess she was watching the guy on the Bike but then again how could you miss a Bright blue Subaru with a huge wing is beyond me.Im fine and the car is driveable but i was pissed when i saw the damage so i just called my dad to tell him i was gonna be late 2 work and just flipped out then rather on the lady.lol.The car unfortunetly looks worse in person but o well cars can be replaced.
