What are you guys buying with your stimulus check? Probably going to finish out my ultra racing chassis bars (2 mid braces)

I will be buying $1,200 worth of toilet paper, of courseWhat are you guys buying with your stimulus check?
Why not save $600 and just buy one roll?I will be buying $1,200 worth of toilet paper, of course
I've been thinking about putting together a flight simulator PC. i bought a 4k TV and a HDMI 4k adapter and it works as long as I only have one monitor but it seems to have a tendency to freeze after a while. I might get another tower for this.
The state of Virginia was (is?) working on them. I was in the DMV maybe 5 years ago and University of Virginia had a beta simulator there, with a student asking folks to test it out and share their impressions. I gave it a shot. It was OK, somewhat "clumsy."Simulators seem to be excellent for that. I wonder why state DOT s don't use them for driving tests and teaching.
Decided to buy a Corksport Short Ram Intake. Allegedly good for 8-12whp from 4000rpm to redline, supported via dyno graph, as well as allowing more audible turbo noises. Might be just what I need to edge out that Mach 1 a little longer, lol!
Supposedly they are looking at a box that will block most bay heat. They saw no real change in intake temps with a moving car, as-is, though. I discussed this with them and its largely a non-issue, especially as the intake charge hits the intercooler and all, anyways.I really wish they would build something to integrate with the OEM "snorkel" air intake. The snorkel actually does pull air in from the front grille area, while the CorkSport intake is just pulling ambient air in from around the filter. I believe the increase in performance is a combined result of fewer bends in the larger diameter piping, the less dense filter media and the increase in the filter's surface area (sucks air in from all around the cone vs. through a 8x10"(?) panel filter).
Still love the intake, but I know the product can be improved in some ways.

It was only a matter of time. Next year car will be lowered and full bolt on and chassis barsDecided to buy a Corksport Short Ram Intake.

That would void the warranty. I am not about that, lol! No, my next car will probably be a PEV. I want to keep my CX5 GT-R until it becomes a financial liability. It does everything adequately. My 2015 was the definition of a compromise. This thing actually does exactly what I want. I think it should last me 150-250K miles, and then I will go PEV, as by then the kinks should be worked out and they should have some decent range.It was only a matter of time.

yes, I asked them a TON of questions about this SRI. Synopsis:That's good to know, straight from the horse's mouth too. I like that about CorkSport.
