Figured I’d throw up a quick thread introducing myself. Some of you probably know me, but my name is Josh. I have an 06 subaru Sti, and 2010 yamaha r1. Heres a few pics  
 ![http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs485.snc3/26555_1391224854457_1047202899_1159112_2809512_n.jpg](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs485.snc3/26555_1391224854457_1047202899_1159112_2809512_n.jpg)  
 ![http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs414.snc3/25014_1383738267297_1047202899_1139231_1105507_n.jpg](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs414.snc3/25014_1383738267297_1047202899_1139231_1105507_n.jpg)  
The STI is fully built, I’m actually in the process of getting a new rotated turbo setup. But On my old set up I made 350whp, and 448tq on the stock turbo on e85.  
Then the bike  
 ![http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs454.ash1/25014_1384583208420_1047202899_1141217_7040304_n.jpg](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs454.ash1/25014_1384583208420_1047202899_1141217_7040304_n.jpg)  
Haven’t done much to it since I’ve been trying to finish up my car, but it has race baffles, flush mounts, fender elminator, windscreen, blah blah the usual.  
I was lurking earlier and saw a post about newbs on 1ks, I’ll add its not my first bike:lol

Yeah he ran around there. I know Stuart (the owner of the car). I’m doing a rotated 35r I think. I’m not dead set on it. But it’s going to happen soon because I’m sick of not beating on my car. I’m on a super rich conservative break in tune for my new motor.

I absolutely love the r1. To think I though my old 07 r6 was fast…  
If you want to call it lg then yeah, lol. I live 2 seconds from there. Warrensburg/lg mobil yeah. That or off 18, Saratoga where ever. I had a 93 tune as well. Depending on what turbo I get, I won’t be able to run e85 for a while.

Exit 23 Mobil FTW! As far as I know, its the northernmost E85 pump in the state.
