Turbo install this weekend

snowblazin said:
After driving her a lot today, I can honestly say I have never enjoyed the car more. Although the downside is buying premium gas and watch the needle go down when I'm having fun. The turbo and bpv are freakin loud, it sounds so mean! I'm using the reflex diverter bpv, it sounds like a mix of turkey and hks ssqv.
I took her through the twisties this morning before work and could not wipe the grin off my face! This car is amazing now, and ******* quiet! At idle you can barely hear her run, such a sleeper! The exhaust note is throatier (is that a word?) than before, but still relatively quiet. Sitting in my cube is killing me!!!!!11!1
 
Damn, I just realized I really didn't post any pics! DOH! There's still a few things here and there to cleanup. Here ya go...

Na, usually not boosting when I'm just cruising around. I think the manual really helps me regulate when I go into boost or not. Gas mileage def blows now, but I don't mind it one bit! :D

yeah gas blows...lol.. same here, dont mind, i like the extra power.. i know ihave a smaller turbo than urs, so it spools quicker, i got to 1-2psi when i accelerate normal then 4-5 at wot..

Thats a hell of a ride just from my house in CT! at least in my opinion. My dad was out there for work for a while, and we stayed in the hotel with him and went to that show, oh 6 years ago? or at least the hot rod night. good times
