i always though of altanta like REAL hot and humid... my brother in law went last year to that big heavy metal show that involves alot of rock groups, he told me it was hot and humid as ****...
ohh yeah its like that in the summer...the weather here fluctuates so much its rediculous. The saying in atlanta is if you dont like the weather wait 5 minutes. Its currently 55 here which should be the high for the day
zomg youre gonna get banned! jk. but seriously, if you havent already seen the new rule, no more talk of street racing on here. i think its a little much. i mean even my dad, clean record, will put an annoying honda in his place in his STi from time to time.

its been over an hour now, impressions?!
Yeah man, it's great! I love it! Boost delivery is a lot smoother, more linear. Low end is slightly improved, but the gains are more evident in midrange and especially higher up in the rev range. It's like the car grew a set of balls it didn't have before above 4000 rpm. I mean it was okay before, but now it breathes better and pulls harder at higher rpm much better than before the SMIC upgrade, when it would start wheezing close to 5000 rpm.
It was already quite chilly here tonight, so the gains probably weren't as drastic as they would have been if I had changed the intercooler on a 90-degree summer day. Although I love the difference now, I'll probably appreciate it more when I'm not heatsoaking during the warmer months.
I'm pretty happy with the car now. Before the SMIC upgrade, I was actually considering moving on to something else. The CustomMSP SMIC upgrade puts the car much closer to where I wanted to be and how I wanted the car to drive, and the minor mods I have planned will get me even closer. I think I'll be hanging on to the car for quite some time now. (thumb)
Right on! The car pulls much harder now, even during normal driving. The difference in the nature of how the car drives is such that it's actually a more enjoyable driving experience.

I just finished up changing my oil with some Mobil1 and changing the tranny fluid with Redline MT-90 and some MTL after I'm guessing 69,800 miles. Well, thats what I think since the car was used. I noticed when I was filling the tranny fluid, I used almost 3.5 quarts?

did you have the car level or tilted back. The capacity is 2.9
I finally got around to checking out the rattling of the motor today and found loose valve cover bolts all over...tightened them up and no more rattles from the exhaust manifold...
Also decided to relocate the coolant reservoir to under the CAI to make the engine bay prettier...yay
